Abstract: A retractible support-bar assembly for supporting various kinds of objects in a vehicle. A base member has an outwardly facing surface with a generally U-shaped, outwardly opening, recess therein. A generally U-shaped bar having a pair of spaced legs which lie in a common plane with a bight portion of the bar is provided. The U-shaped bar is conformed in size to be received in the U-shaped recess and conformed in thickness so as to provide a surface thereon which is flush with the outwardly facing surface of the base member when the bar is received in the U-shaped recess. A pivot for pivotally securing the bar to the base member is provided so that the bar is movable into and out of the recess. The pivot is provided adjacent the free ends of the legs of said U-shaped bar. The plane of the bar is, when the bar extends out of the recess, inclined to the outwardly facing surface at a defined angle.
