    摘要: The present invention refers to a folding joint for attaching a rear view display device to a vehicle, comprising: one or more hinge sections each of which is adapted to rotate relative to the vehicle, with each of the one or more hinge sections comprising a first end (501) and a second end (502); an intermediate attachment (504) comprised by the one or more hinge sections, the intermediate attachment (504) comprising the first end (501) and the second end (502); a rear view display arm (200) pivotably coupled to the intermediate attachment (504) at the first end (501) to form a first axis (606); a base (500) pivotably coupled to the intermediate attachment (504) at the second end (502) and forming a second axis (608); and a biasing element (902) comprising a spring, a coil, a wave spring, and/or elastic member for biasing at least one of the one or more hinge sections in response to rotation of the folding j oint, wherein the biasing element (902) is biasing at least one member (1000, 1002), in particular in form of a spring biased cam section and a biased clamping bolt, and wherein the biasing element (902) is arranged between the first and the second end of the intermediate attachment (504) and encasing a first biased member (1000) and a second biased member (1002). It also refers to a external rear view display device and a vehicle with such a folding joint.
