Abstract

To provide an easily manufactured ignition distributor in which two bearings support the distributor shaft, the lower bearing is molded or otherwise secured into the housing structure, whereas the upper bearing is supported on a transversely extending support member, typically a support plate which is seated within the housing, for example bearing against a shoulder, against seating lugs, or the like, so that the entire ignition distributor structure can be constructed with small compact size.
