ABSTRACT:
An arm structure for a reclining seat such as those used on planes, buses, and train coaches, in which one or both of the arms are adjustable between a substantially horizontal position when the back is in upright position and a horizontal or fully down position when the back of the seat is in a reclined position. A latch mechanism holds the arm in the various positions and is released to move the arm to any one of the positions by pulling the arm forwardly and moving it to a selected position. The arm can be lifted to any one of the positions by merely lifting the arm which snaps successively into the various positions as it is pivotally raised. The latch mechanism holds the arm rigidly in position with respect to any pressure applied downwardly thereon by the arm of the occupant of the seat. The arm rest may have one of a number of different types of upholstery or covering to match the covering on the seat.
