The subject invention relates to a rotating spindle mechanism comprising a first fixed plate, a second fixed plate, a first washer, a second washer, a screw and a sleeve; said screw penetrating the first washer, the spindle hole on the second fixed plate and the second washer, then tightened into the inside thread of the sleeve, while the other end of the screw being riveted to the sleeve, the spindle part of the screw being enclosed by the first washer, the spindle hole on the second fixed plate and the second washer, the rivet blocks of the sleeve being riveted onto the rivet hole on the first fixed plate, to comprise the rotating spindle mechanism; With said construction, it will achieve such advantages and effects as better tightness, easier adjustment, free from oil stains, higher rate of satisfactory parts, extended service life of rotating spindle, secure fixation without loosening, reduced cubic measurements, better employment of space, reduced production costs, better configuration without deformation, etc.

A pivot mount for a vehicular shift lever which precludes the play in the shift lever. The mount is employed in conjunction with a shift bowl that is rotatably mounted on a steering column. A clevis extends radially outwardly from the shift bowl, and the clevis has laterally spaced connecting plates. A bore penetrates each connecting plate. The bores through the connecting plates are registered. A shift lever having a mounting block is mounted from the clevis. The mounting block has laterally spaced, substantially parallel, first and second faces adapted to be embraced between the connecting plates. An aperture penetrates the mounting block and opens through the first and second faces to register with the bores through the connecting plates. A bushing assembly having an annular body portion with longitudinally spaced first and second rim edges is insertably received within the aperture which penetrates the mounting block. A pivot pin extends through not only the bores in the connecting plates but also the aperture through the mounting block. A pair of longitudinally resilient arms extends transversely outwardly from the first rim edge and are canted such that the distal end portions thereof are displaced toward the second rim edge. A slot extends between the first and second rim edges. The slot opens through the first rim edge between the resilient arms. A recess in the first face extends radially outwardly from the aperture through the mounting block and is adapted to receive the resilient arms.

A first, fork-shaped component accommodates a second component, in which case an articulated connection between the two components takes place by means of an inserted pin. In order to establish a rattle-free connection between the two components with a good functioning and a simple mounting and a small space requirement in the longitudinal direction of the pin, it is provided that one sleeve respectively, which receives the pin, is inserted into bores of the first fork-shaped component, on the side facing the second component, each sleeve having an outwardly directed, elastic ring segment which, under prestress, is supported on the two components. In addition, on the side facing away from the ring segment, inwardly directed elastic noses are molded to the sleeves and reach behind the slid-in pin without a head and secure it against a falling-out.

A hinge for spectacles comprising a joint body (5) used as a hinge axle, which body forms a coaxial circumferential groove (7) for receiving an eye (9) of a side jaw (8) and is rotationally rigidly held between two legs (4) of an end (2) of a side, which legs are mutually connected at least at one end and extend on either side of the circumferential groove (7). In order to provide advantageous constructional conditions it is proposed that the joint body (5) consists of two preferably disk-like parts (6) whose abutting surfaces (s) extend transversally to the hinge axle in the zone of the circumferential groove (7).

The invention relates to a rotatable link, which may be incorporated in an upright. The upright may be used in connection with a support for a card terminal. The rotatable link may be characterized as a rotary friction link. Compressive forces caused by a mechanical tension in a pipe are transferred via two first objects to a second object clamped between them. The two first objects are secured and partly built into the pipe, and the second object is rotatable relative to the pipe. The second object constitutes a rotatable link part on which a plate may be welded to provide an upright.
