Method of assembling bearing and lever

摘要

A socket of yieldable semi-rigid plastic material is formed with an external circumferential groove for receiving the periphery of an opening in a linkage member. The periphery of the opening is deformed out of the plane of the surface of the linkage to produce an effective thickness approximately the thickness of the groove, providing a method to assure a secure fit in cases where the thickness of the linkage material is either greater than or less than the width of the groove.
