Abstract: A device for enabling a pivotal arrangement of a tray or table top at a seat back or back portion of a passenger seat, especially a motor vehicle seat. The device is adapted to enable an adjustment of an inclination of the tray or table top as soon as the tray or table top has been pivoted into a substantially horizontal in-use position. The adjustment may be effected by toothed segments attached to the tray and back of the passenger seat or it is also possible for effecting adjusting by setscrew arrangements devised to press against a forward edge of the tray. The setscrew arrangements may be connected to one another by a drive or connecting belt so as to enable a simultaneous operation of the setscrew arrangements.
