Abstract

A tachograph assembly including a casing and a cover member pivotally mounted on the casing with a first pivotal bearing member being formed on a first part of the cover member and a second pivotal bearing member being formed on a casing extension which, together with the cover member, forms the front face of the tachograph assembly in a generally common plane. The second bearing member has an outer radius which corresponds to the inner radius of the first bearing member and a bearing spindle in the form of an elongated lip is formed on the second part of the cover member for engagement with the second bearing member to enable pivotal motion of the cover member relative to the casing. The first part of the cover member includes alignment elements which operate in cooperation with corresponding elements in the casing to align the cover member within the casing when the cover is in the closed position.
