ABSTRACT:
An arm rest for a chair is disclosed that has an upper portion that swivels horizontally to support a user's forearm or wrist. The arm rest is removably attachable to a wide variety of chair arms. The arm rest includes a pair of parallel plates, one having a transverse opening therein adjacent to a forward end, and the other having a transverse shaft slidably located in the transverse opening for pivoting or swivelling the upper portion of the arm rest into a desired position. One of the plates is formed with a plurality of recesses arranged in a circle about the pivot axis, and the other plate has at least one locking pin extending into a selective recess to lock the upper swivelling arm rest portion in position. The upper arm rest portion is lifted or raised to disengage the locking pin. The swivelling arm rest portion is then rotated or swung into a desired position and released allowing the locking pin to engage another recess, again locking it in position.
