<p>An assembly of a first member (34, 34') crimped to a second member (33) wherein said first member is mounted on said second member and includes a radially extending surface (54a) spaced from an opposing radially extending surface (41a) of said second member, especially a hinge pivot mechanism (21) preferably for reclinable vehicle seats includes an eccentric planetary gear system, having a gear wheel (31) and a gear ring (32) which are mounted on an eccentric pivot member (33) and located between axially spaced shoulder surfaces (41a, 54a) of the pivot member and a bushing (34) which is mounted on the pivot member, the pivot member having a shaft (43) with a pair of notches (45) located on opposite sides of the shaft and portions (59) of the sidewall of the bushing being pressed into the notches, forming a crimp connection between the bushing and the pivot member to maintain a predetermined axial spacing between the shoulder surfaces with the gear wheel contacted by one of the shoulder surfaces and the gear ring contacted by the other one of the shoulder surfaces to thereby maintain respective tooth systems (39,40) of the gear wheel and gear ring in operative relationship. Also disclosed is apparatus (60) for making the crimp connection between the bushing and the pivot member. <IMAGE></p> |
