Description:TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of vehicle seats. More particularly the present disclosure relates to a vehicle seat with armrests having a retractable table/tray.

BACKGROUND
[0002] Background description includes information that may be useful in understanding the present invention. It is not an admission that any of the information provided herein is prior art or relevant to the presently claimed invention, or that any publication specifically or implicitly referenced is prior art.
[0003] Conventionally, a vehicle seat includes a pair of armrests configured with the backrest of the seat to allow a user sitting on the seat to rest his/her arms. These armrests are pivotally configured with the backrest so that it can be moved between the stow/store position and use/usage position as per the convenience of the user. Nowadays automobile companies have started providing their vehicles seats with tables or trays arrangement. Mostly these trays are configured with a backrest of a forward seat such that the tray is used by a passenger sitting on a rear seat behind the forward seat. In this way, independent trays are provided for each seat such that every passenger sitting in the vehicle can have a tray for keeping but not limited to stuff and food articles. Providing independent trays for each seat is costly in terms of raw materials. Also, the trays configured with the backrest of the forward seats may get loose with time and can be noisy which is very much annoying and undesired.
[0004] There is, therefore, a need for an improved mechanism for configuring retractable trays or tables with the vehicle’s seat at a reduced cost to provide a pleasant user experience. The present disclosure provides an assembly that can be deployed with armrests as a foldable tray or table that can be accessible to a passenger sitting on the seat as well as to the rear passenger sitting behind the seat.

[0013] More particularly, the armrests are pivotable from a stow position (non-use position) to a first use position (front tray position) and a second use position (rear tray position). The stow position corresponds to a position wherein the armrest is substantially parallel to the backrest. The first use position corresponds to a position wherein the armrests is/are pivoted in a first direction (from the stow position), in front of the backrest wherein the user can rest his/her arm/hand on the armrests. Wherein in the first use position the flexible member is adapted to be extended out from the first armrest in a deployed position and is releasably attached to the second armrest for providing a tray for the first user sited on the seat. The second use position corresponds to a position wherein the armrests is/are pivoted in second direction (from the stow position) at rear side of the backrest and wherein the flexible member is adapted to be extended out from the first armrest in a deployed position and is releasably attached to the second armrest for providing a tray for a second user at the rear side of the seat. Wherein the armrests in first use position and second use position are substantially perpendicular to the backrest.
[0014] In an aspect, the flexible member inside the first armrest, includes a latch, at a first end of the flexible member which is configured to be engaged with/against a locking member configured/arranged with the second armrest for forming the tray.
[0015] In another aspect, each of the armrests comprises a first member slidably configured/arranged with the armrests and configured to be moved between a first extended position, a second extended position opposite to the first extended position, and a retracted position. The flexible member is arranged in/on the first member of the first armrest and is movable to the deployed position after the first member of the first armrest moves to any of the first extended position, and the second extended position.
[0016] In an aspect, the first extended position corresponds to a position when the first member is extended out from a free end of the armrest and the second extended position corresponds to a position when the first member is extended out from a connected end of the armrest with the backrest. More particularly, when the first member is moved to the first extended position, the first member extends at a front side of the backrest, wherein the flexible member is adapted to be extended out from the first member of the first armrest in a deployed position and is releasably attached to the first member of the second armrest for providing a tray for the user sitting on the seat and when the first member is moved to the second extended position, the first member extends beyond a rear side of the backrest, wherein the flexible member is adapted to be extended out from the first member of the first armrest in a deployed position and is releasably attached to the first member of the second armrest for providing a tray for a second user on a rear side seat.
