BACKGROUND OF INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a multi-functional armrest assembly. [0003] 2. Related Prior Art [0004] Disclosed in Taiwanese Patent Publication M242101 is a device for adjusting the elevation of an armrest. The device includes a stationary post 1 and a movable cylinder 2 movable up and down on the stationary post 1. An armrest 4 is attached to the movable cylinder 2. Between the stationary post 1 and the movable cylinder 2 is a retaining element 3 that is movable axially. By means of operating the retaining element 3, the elevation of the movable cylinder 2 on the stationary post 1 can be adjusted, and so can the elevation of the armrest 4. [0005] There are problems with the conventional device. Although providing users with the possibility of adjusting the elevation of the armrest, it fails to provide any other functions that users may want. [0006] The present invention is therefore intended to obviate or at least alleviate the problems encountered in prior art. SUMMARY OF INVENTION [0007] According to the present invention, an armrest assembly includes a platform, a post pivotally installed on the platform, a cylinder movably installed on the post, an armrest pivotally installed on the cylinder, an angle controller for controlling the angle of the post on the platform and an elevation controller for controlling the elevation of the cylinder on the post. [0008] An advantage of the armrest assembly of the present invention is that the angle of the post on the platform can be adjusted. [0009] Another advantage of the armrest assembly of the present invention is that the angle of the armrest on the cylinder can be adjusted. [0010] Other advantages and features of the present invention will become apparent from the following description referring to the drawings. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS [0011] The present invention will be described through detailed illustration of two embodiments referring to the drawings. [0012] FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an armrest assembly according to the first embodiment of the present invention. [0013] FIG. 2 is an exploded view of the armrest assembly shown in FIG. 1. [0014] FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the armrest assembly of FIG. 1. [0015] FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the armrest assembly in another position than shown in FIG. 3. [0016] FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of the armrest assembly in another position than shown in FIG. 4. [0017] FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view of the armrest assembly in another position than shown in FIG. 5. [0018] FIG. 7 is another cross-sectional view of the armrest assembly shown in FIG. 1. [0019] FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view of the armrest assembly in another position than shown in FIG. 7. [0020] FIG. 9 is an exploded view of an armrest assembly according to the second embodiment of the present invention. [0021] FIG. 10 is a cross-sectional view of the armrest assembly shown in FIG. 9.
