ABSTRACT:
A swivel pedestal for a vehicle seat is provided in which a vertical tube is secured at its lower end to a base member and at its upper end is supported by a horizontal top wall of a housing, the tube receiving a tubular shaft rigidly secured to and depending from a rectangular mounting plate adapted to be secured to the other side of a vehicle seat. A brace plate is secured to the mounting plate and has a horizontal portion between the mounting plate and the housing top wall, with a cam portion for camming the upper end of a lock bar outwardly, terminating in a V-shaped notch receiving a V-shaped locking portion of the lock bar, the lock bar being pivoted at its lower end on a horizontal axis and being spring-urged inwardly, and an actuating handle being secured to the upper end of the lock bar. A stop is provided for limiting angular movement of the brace plate and for insuring alignment of the lock bar with the notch at the locking position. The vertical rotational axis is offset from a plane intermediate side edges of the mounting plate and from a plane intermediate the front and back edges of the mounting plate which is centrally located under the seat. A door is provided on the front wall of the housing for access to the space therewithin.
