Abstract

Fastening of a spindle or of another elongated cylindrical component perpendicularly to a lever. This fastening essentially consists in providing the galvanized deep-drawn sheet steel lever with a suitable rim hole into which the spindle is inserted. The spindle is secured against moving axially in relation to the lever by a peripheral projection which is formed by rolling the rim hole surface and which projects into a corresponding groove in the spindle.
