A WINDOW STAY FOR ADJUSTABLE MOUNTING OF A WINDOW SASH ON A WINDOW FRAME

摘要

A pivot joint for pivotally coupling two components (10 and 11) where at least one of the components is movable relative to the other. A first component (11) is formed of a plastics material and has a projecting hollow spigot (12) the spigot being engaged within an opening (14) in the second component (10). In order to effect the pivotal mounting of the first component (11) with the second component (10) the free end of the spigot is deformed to have a diameter which is larger than the diameter of the opening (14) in the second component (10). Deformation of the free end of the spigot (12) is preferably carried out by a headed fastening (13) being inserted into the bore of the hollow spigot.
