<p>There is described in the specification an adjustable mounting (1), described in detail in conjunction with a vehicle door handle assembly. The mounting includes a main part (5) and a foot (6), the foot being a planar component provided with snap-engaging means to secure it on one side of an apertured panel (37), the side of the foot remote from the panel being formed with a series of teeth (19). The main part of the mounting includes abutment surfaces (8,12) to engage the side of the panel remote from the foot in areas (40,41) adjacent to the aperture, the abutment surfaces being so positioned and configured as to allow sliding motion of the main part in one direction relative to the panel. The main part further includes a series of teeth (20) complementary to the teeth of the foot, the two complementary series of teeth interlocking when the abutment surfaces of the main part engage the panel to prevent relative motion between the main part and the foot. A door handle assembly including the adjustable mounting is described, the assembly including an operating lever (2) pivotally attached to the main part (5) of the mounting, the operating lever including a finger plate (21) and a crank arm (22) the crank arm extending through an opening (15) in the main part of the mounting and through a slot (16) in the foot. To facilitate post-assembly adjustment of the mounting, the opening (15) and the slot (16) may each be formed with one of two series of opposing cutouts (34,35) which can be engaged by a tool (36), rotation of the tool urging the main part and the foot to move relatively one to the other.</p> |
