Abstract
A mechanism for adjusting the position of an armrest relative to a seat includes a support member having the armrest mounted on a first end thereof and a locking track mounted on a second end thereof. A mounting plate assembly is fixed to the seat for slidably receiving the support member and the locking track. A leveraged clamping linkage is movably mounted to the mounting plate assembly and is selectively engageable and disengageable between the locking track and the mounting plate assembly for permitting independent adjustment of the support member and armrest in various positions relative to the seat.
