1. An armrest device for a utility vehicle seat, wherein the armrest device comprises:
- a plurality of first control elements arranged on an upper surface of the armrest device, wherein a first control element of the plurality of first control elements is configured to be actuated to assign a vehicle function to the first control element and to form an actuated first control element, andat least one second control element arranged on a side surface of the armrest device, wherein a second control element of the at least one second control element is operably connected to the actuated first control element via a plurality of signals, and the second control element of the at least one second control element is configured to be actuated to adjust the vehicle function;
a detection device that detects actuation of the first control element of the plurality of first control elements and that generates a signal of the plurality of signals which can be assigned to the actuated first control element, wherein the detection device is configured to transmit the signal generated to an assignment device, which is configured to assign a vehicle function to the actuated first control element; and
a control device, wherein, depending on the actuated first control element with the assigned vehicle function, the control device is configured to adjust the vehicle function on actuation of the second control element of the at least one second control element according to a predeterminable or predetermined plan, wherein the control device is connected via additional signals of the plurality of signals to the assignment device, the at least one second control element, and actuators for adjusting the vehicle function.
