Abstract
A vehicle armrest includes an opening/closing body, a switch knob and an operation transmission mechanism. The opening/closing body opens and closes an upper side of a storage section. The switch knob is configured to open the opening/closing body. The operation transmission mechanism opens the opening/closing body in response to an operation of the switch knob. The opening/closing body includes an inner base portion and an outer lid portion. The outer lid portion is movably connected to the base portion to move forward and rearward in a front-rear direction. The switch knob is disposed in a fixed position in a main box body farther forward than the front end of the opening/closing body when the lid portion has been moved to the forwardmost position.
