ABSTRACT:
A vehicular arm has a fixed axle, an arm-rest body pivotable on the axle about its axis between a raised position and a lowered position, an abutment axially fixed on the axle and rotationally coupled to the arm-rest body, and a pusher rotationally fixed and axially shiftable on the axle. The abutment lies between the pusher and the arm-rest body. Coupling projections on the pusher and on the abutment extend toward each other and have mutually engaging faces lying in planes extending at an acute angle to the axis. A spring presses the pusher axially toward the abutment, such that, when the arm-rest body is pressed toward the lowered position with a force exceeding a predetermined limit, the faces cam the pusher axially away from the abutment and permit limited rotation of the abutment and arm-rest body on the axle.
