ABSTRACT:
A retractable ashtray, particularly for motor vehicles, comprises a release mechanism made integral in a plastic material.
This mechanism comprises essentially a base plate and a body hinged to said plate and having two opposite walls one of which bears a hook and the other a pin, on which an idle pawl is mounted. The latter cooperates, during movements of the ashtray from the in-use position to the out-of-use position and vice versa, with the ribs born by the base plate, movements of the hinged body with respect to the base plate being opposed by a spring which tends to space apart from each other the two elements, the maximum spacing between them being determined by the engagement of a hook born by the base plate with a hook born by a wall of the body hinged to said base plate.
