Rotatable tool holder for vehicles

Abstract

A vehicle tool rack for storing and accessing various individual equipment elements carried aboard a vehicle comprises a base and a turntable rotatably carried on the base such that the turntable is rotatable relative to the base. A plurality of tool receptacles are carried aboard the turntable, whereby the turntable is adapted to simultaneously receive a plurality of individual equipment elements. A plurality of circumferentially-spaced base magnets are fixedly carried by the base and a plurality of circumferentially-spaced turntable magnets are fixedly carried by the turntable. The base magnets and the turntable magnets remain spaced from one another. The turntable has a plurality of distinct stable rotational positions relative to the base wherein the turntable magnets interact with the base magnets to resist rotation out of the distinct stable rotational positions.
