ABSTRACT:
A pivoting forearm cradle including a contoured forearm receiving and supporting structure and a pivotal connecting structure that is in connection with the forearm receiving and support structure at one end thereof and attachable to the drive shaft assembly of a weed trimming device. The forearm receiving and support structure is preferably a contoured cradle having a forearm receiving surface contoured to receive and shield the forearm of a user. The pivotal connecting structure preferably includes a user adjustable tensioning mechanism to allow the user to adjust the force required to cause the forearm receiving and support structure to pivot. The tensioning mechanism preferably includes a wave spring positioned between a pivot plate and a clamping bracket that form a portion of the pivotal connecting structure. In addition, it is preferred to provide one or more pivot stops to limit the range of angular motion between the forearm receiving and support structure and the drive shaft assembly of the weed trimming device.
