APPARATUS WITH INCLINATION-ADJUSTABLE PIVOTING ELEMENT, IN PARTICULAR, A VEHICLE ARMREST

The invention concerns an apparatus with inclination-adjustable pivoting element, a pivoting element, hinged on a support structure around a first axis of rotation to move between a first limit stop position and a second limit stop position. The apparatus comprises at least one abutment body, rotationally connected to the pivoting body and to the structure around the first axis and constrainable in rotation to the pivoting element. The abutment body stops the pivoting element in the first limit stop position by abutting against a first stop. The apparatus comprises: at least one body of constraint between the abutment body and the pivoting element, which may assume alternatively a constraint and a release configuration; and a control device, kinematically connected to the constraint body to move it between the two aforesaid positions. The inclination in the first limit stop position is adjusted by activating the control device and varying the inclination of the pivoting element.
