A mechanical stop apparatus that permits more than 360 degrees rotation in a horizontal plane is disclosed. The apparatus includes a lifted tang (160) on the stationary portion (120) of the apparatus and a finger (150) on the rotating portion (110). During maximum rotation, the finger slides up onto the tang to attain a maximum rotation in excess of 360 degrees. La présente invention concerne un appareil d'arrêt mécanique qui permet une rotation de plus de 360 degrés dans un plan horizontal. L'appareil comporte un tenon (160) en position relevée sur la partie stationnaire (120) de l'appareil et un doigt (150) sur la partie rotative (110). Lors de la rotation maximale, le doigt coulisse vers le haut sur le tenon pour atteindre une rotation maximale dépassant 360 degrés.
