ABSTRACT:
An armrest of a seating structure has one end connected to a back through means such that the armrest pivots between a horizontal forwardly projecting arm support position and a storage position in which it is disclosed in a recess in a corner formed by front and side surfaces of the back. The pivot axis is so oriented that the armrest moves into a recess which is inwardly sloped because of a corresponding slope of the side of the back. The connection means provides for relative axial movement to allow the armrest to slide sidewardly outwardly during movement from the storage position to the arm support position. A radially extending pin in one member extends into an angularly and axially extending slot in another to obtain such axial movement in response to pivotal movement of the armrest.
