Abstract:
1. An assembly of a vehicle, comprising: a first vehicle part and a second vehicle part being pivotal relative to the first vehicle part; at least one detent fitting which is constituted to hold the two vehicle parts in position relative to each other in a locked state and to therein establish a force flow between the two vehicle parts and to allow for a pivoting of the two vehicle parts relative to each other in an unlocked state; an actuation shaft to actuate the at least one detent fitting, and a free-pivoting mechanics which is actuatable in order to disrupt the force flow between the two vehicle parts to provide a free-pivoting function, wherein the free-pivoting mechanics, to provide the free-pivoting function, interacts with the actuation shaft and is operative to interact with the actuation shaft only if the free-pivoting mechanics is actuated, wherein the free-pivoting mechanics comprises a guide plate which is arranged in a rotationally fixed manner on one of the two vehicle parts and a tooth plate which is arranged in a rotationally fixed manner on the other of the two vehicle parts, which in a non-actuated state the free-pivoting mechanics are pivotal with respect to each other, and wherein the free-pivoting mechanics comprises a first pawl element, which is arranged movably on the guide plate to establish a locking of the guide plate with an intermediate ring pivotally mounted with respect to the tooth plate and to the guide plate, and a second pawl element, which is arranged movably on the intermediate ring to establish a locking of the intermediate ring with the tooth plate.
