Abstract

An attachment part for the interior of a vehicle, such as a hand grip (31) or sun visor (33, 37), has a receiving housing (4) adapted to grip over a bearing bracket (6) which is to be fastened to an attachment wall of the vehicle. The attachment part is swingably pivoted on the bearing bracket. In order to obtain a simplified mounting, the bearing bracket (6) is formed with a detent nose (9) which is adapted for passing through an opening (22) in the attachment wall (21) and for engaging behind the edge of the opening. Pivoted to the bearing bracket (6) is a detent lever (12) having an axis of rotation (13) directed parallel to the pivot pin (7). The detent lever (12) is pivoted by a free end thereof to the bearing bracket (6), while at having at its other end a pair of curved arms (15, 16), the first of which (15) can be acted on by the receiving housing (4) in order to swing the second (16) by a swinging movement of the attachment part into a detent position which engages behind the edge of the opening (22) in the attachment wall (21) on the side facing away from the detent nose (9). The first arm (15) is formed with a detent projection (23) which is engagingly supported by a stop (24) on the bearing bracket (6) in the detent position of the arm (15).
