Abstract: A folding joint for attaching a rear view display device to a vehicle includes one or more hinge sections and a biasing element. The one or more hinge sections are adapted to rotate relative to the vehicle, with each of the one or more hinge sections comprising a first end and a second end. The biasing element includes a spring, a coil, a wave spring, or other elastic member for biasing at least one of the one or more hinge sections in response to rotation of the folding joint, with the biasing element biasing at least one of a spring biased cam section or a biased clamping bolt.

Abstract: A folding joint for attaching a rear view device includes a first hinge section, a second hinge section, the first and second hinge sections being adapted to rotate relative to each other around an axis of rotation, at least one detent or recessed surface including two depressions or recesses, a spring biased cam section which is adapted to interact with the at least one detent or recessed surface for adjustably locking the rotational movement of the first and second hinge sections relative to each other, a hinge pin at least in part coinciding with the axis of rotation, the hinge pin being adapted to rotatably connect the first and second hinge sections, and including a guide pin extending essentially perpendicularly from the hinge pin, and a spring biased clamping bolt arranged on the guide pin.
