Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1020653A1] The link has two arms swiveling in relation to each other on an axle (4). One of the link-arms forms an outer part (5) with outer shells (7) and support (8). The other link-arm is in the form of an inner part (6) with inner discs (9) and supports (10). At least one spring-loaded locking element is movable radially or tangentially in relation to the link's axle and catches into at least one recess (35,42) in the link-arm. The inner discs have cavities (12,16) through which the locking element extends crosswise to the plane of the inner discs. The locking element operates in conjunction with a lever(25) which swivels on a bearing (33) spaced apart from the link-axle.
