Abstract (en)

A pivot assembly comprising two parts (14,12; 14,16) which are connected to one another by means of a pivot so that one is pivotable relative to the other. A movable detent (38) on one of the parts (12; 16) can be moved into engagement with the other (14) to retain the two parts (14,12; 14,16) in a predetermined relative angular position relative to one another, and out of such engagement to enable subsequent relative pivotal movement between the two parts (14,12; 14,16). The detent (38) is slidable towards and away from the pivot for such engagement and disengagement of the detent (38) with the said other part (14). <IMAGE>
