Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1986059A1] The device has bearings for receiving pivots, where each bearing includes a plastic pivoting structure (25), where the device is made of metal or alloy. Each pivot (12) has a convex rounded portion (13) forming an extension of a cylindrical portion and decreasing in size in a direction of a pivot end. The structure has an opening (16) e.g. circular opening, comprising a trapezoidal/inverted-triangle profile whose inclined inner wall forms a bearing surface. The portion (13) is supported against the wall such that a shaft is axially maintained between the walls of openings of the structures. An independent claim is also included for a method for assembling a shaft pivoting device.
