| 1. An articulating head restraint comprising:
a bracket, the bracket having a slot and a stop;
an armature contained within the bracket;
a cam having a lock mechanism and a stop acumination, the cam fixedly attached to the armature; and
a slide attached to the bracket, the slide movable within the slot to a locked position so that, when the slide is in the
locked position, the lock acumination is in contact with the slide thereby preventing rotation of the armature in a first
direction and the stop acumination is positioned to contact the stop to prevent rotation of the armature beyond the stop in
a second direction.
