Abstract:
1. A folding arrangement in armchairs of the type comprising an articulated tilting assembly of the seat of the armchair and an articulated tilting assembly of the corresponding armrests, wherein the articulated assembly of each armrest is provided on a rotatory shaft, on which a spring is arranged acting with a tendency to maintain the armrest in an upwards tilted position, the armrest incorporating laterally an angular element, whereas seat is provided on its sides with pins capable of supporring on their upper part the angular elements of the respective armrests, wherein tilting of the seat from an inoperative position to an operative position drags the armrests from an inoperative position to an operative position, and the shaft of the assembly of the armrests is fixed to the armchair structure, the assembly of the corresponding armrest being established in free rotation on said shaft by means of rotational bushings, with the rotation being limited between the respective angular positions established by two radial rods of the shaft, on which a lug fixed to the armrest acts as a stop.
