The locking arm pedestal system includes a clevis assembly pivotally attached to a plurality of pivotal arms. One of the arms is pivotally attached to a telescoping arm housed in a base, the telescoping arm setting the desired height of the clevis assembly. The base is adapted to be mounted to a vehicle console and floor. The clevis assembly includes a pivotal mounting bracket where an item can be mounted thereon at a desired angle. A pivot locking joint prevents the mounting bracket from pivoting from the desired angle. Each of the pivotal arms also includes similarly configured pivot locking joints to set the desired position of the clevis assembly with respect to the user. Fasteners clamp the locking pivot joints in place.

1. A locking arm pedestal system, comprising: a base having a mounting bracket and an upwardly extending support pole, the mounting bracket being adapted for attaching the base to a foundation;a positioning assembly for positioning and supporting an object at a desired position, the positioning assembly being attached to the base, the positioning assembly having; an extendable arm slidably disposed in the support pole and having a splined end extending from the support pole, a locking handle selectively locking the extendable arm thereby setting the height of the positioning assembly;a first positioning arm pivotally mounted at one end thereof to the extendable arm and having a splined pivot locking joint corresponding to the splined end of the extendable arm;a second positioning arm pivotally attached to the first positioning arm at an end opposite from the one end for horizontal rotation and having a splined pivot locking joint thereat, wherein the pivotal movement is the sole movement between the first and second positioning arms;a clevis assembly pivotally mounted to the second positioning arm for horizontal rotation, the clevis assembly supporting the object at a desired angle, the angle being locked at a pivot locking joint;clamp assemblies for setting positions of the extendable arm, first and second positioning anus and the clevis assembly; andat least one lateral mount bracket disposed directly on the support pole to laterally support the base on the foundation;wherein the pivot locking joints prevent hazardous movement of the positioning assembly when abrupt forces act thereon. 2. The locking arm pedestal system according to claim 1, wherein said extendable arm comprises an elongate, hollow tube having an open, beveled end and an opposite end, and an elongate slot disposed on a side of said tube. 3. The locking arm pedestal system according to claim 2, wherein said clamp assembly for said extendable arm comprises: an elongate locking rod slidably disposed within said tube, said locking rod being accessible through said elongate slot on said hollow tube, said locking rod having threaded ends, one of said ends being connected to one of said clamping assemblies on said at least one arm;a bar wedge attached to the other of said threaded ends, said bar wedge having a beveled edge; anda clamping handle disposed on said support pole, said clamping handle having a portion engaging said locking rod through said elongate slot to clamp said extendable arm at the desired height. 4. The locking arm pedestal system according to claim 1, wherein said first positioning arm includes a first pivot locking joint at one end and a second pivot locking joint at the other end, said first pivot locking joint comprising a toothed male spline disposed on one end of said extendable arm and a recessed toothed female spline disposed on one side of said first positioning arm. 5. The locking arm pedestal system according to claim 4, wherein said second pivot locking joint comprises a recessed toothed female spline disposed on the opposite side of said first positioning arm and a toothed male spline disposed on one side of said second positioning arm. 6. The locking arm pedestal system according to claim 1, wherein said clevis assembly comprises: a lower mounting bracket;an upper mounting bracket pivotally connected to said lower mounting bracket; anda biased pivot pin connecting said upper and lower mounting brackets, the pivot locking joint being disposed between the upper and lower mounting brackets. 7. The locking arm pedestal system according to claim 6, wherein said upper mounting bracket comprises a substantially U-shaped plate having a central portion and legs extending from said central portion, the central portion having a plurality of slots for attaching a mounting bracket for said object. 8. The locking arm pedestal system according to claim 7, wherein said lower mounting bracket includes a substantially U-shaped plate having a central portion and legs extending from said central portion, said pivot locking connection comprising a toothed male spline disposed on one of said legs of said upper mounting bracket and a recessed toothed female spline disposed on one of said legs of said lower mounting bracket. 9. The locking arm pedestal system according to claim 1, wherein said clamping assembly for said at least one arm comprises clamping knobs. 10. A locking arm pedestal system, comprising: a base having a mounting bracket and an upwardly extending support pole, the mounting bracket being adapted for attaching the base to a foundation;a positioning assembly for positioning and supporting an object at a desired position, the positioning assembly being attached to the base, the positioning assembly having;an extendable arm slidably disposed in the support pole, the extendable arm setting relative height of the positioning assembly;at least one arm pivotally mounted to the extendable arm, the at least one arm having at least one pivot locking joint;a clevis assembly pivotally mounted to the at least one arm, the clevis assembly supporting the object at a desired angle, the angle being locked at a pivot locking joint;clamp assemblies for setting positions of the extendable arm, the at least one arm and the clevis assembly; andat least one lateral mount bracket disposed directly on the support pole to laterally support the base on the foundation,wherein the pivot locking joints prevent hazardous movement of the positioning assembly when abrupt forces act thereon.
