Description

SCOPE OF THE INVENTION [0001]This invention relates to chairs with arm rests and, more particularly, to a chair arm rest providing a holder for beverage containers or ashtrays.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Arm rests for chairs are well known to include cup holders to removably retain beverage containers. A disadvantage of many known cup holders is that their components significantly increase the complexity of the chair assembly. Another disadvantage of many known cup holders is that the cup holder provides a recess within which spilled fluids may accumulate and are difficult to clean. Another disadvantage of cup holders is that liquid which may be spilled typically is above the surface of the seat and will drip down onto the seat rendering the seat unusable until cleaned.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0003]To at least partially overcome these disadvantages of previously known devices, the present invention provides an improved chair arm configuration having a generally horizontal arm r...
