Abstract
An armrest is connected to a seat by a two-way hinge that provides both upward rotation of the armrest and hinge in a vertical plane and lateral rotation of the armrest away from the seat. A lock connects the armrest and hinge and maintains the armrest alongside the seat until a predetermined lateral force is applied, as by a seat occupant, to rotate the armrest away from the seat and permit an occupant to move freely sideways from the seat. After rotating laterally to a position past the hinge, the hinge and armrest swing downwardly by the armrest weight, to a stored position alongside the seat back.
