Abstract
An armrest for vehicles has a basic body constructed with an upwardly open receiving compartment and a closing flap which covers the receiving compartment. The closing flap is swivellably held on the basic body and has an arm supporting padding and a depositing compartment. For making the depositing tray accessible from the rear seat of the vehicle between the backrests of the two front seats, with a low-cost manufacture and an attractive appearance of the armrest, the arm padding support is provided with a central opening. A sliding blind which covers the depositing tray is longitudinally slidably guided in the closing flap.
