Spindle of instrumentation apparatus.

摘要

A spindle for use in an instrumentation apparatus comprises, on an end of the spindle inserted into a cavity defined by a pointer shaft, (i) a surface for engagement to the pointer shaft and (ii) a recessed surface proximal to the engagement surface and inserted into the cavity without engaging the pointer shaft. The improved spindle is easily manufactured and reduces the maximum force required to stake the pointer shaft to the spindle.
