Abstract
A device in a power-driven tool, such as a motor saw, includes a handle (10) having a gas control (14) and a gas control catch (15). The gas control and the gas control catch have pivots (14a, 15a) adapted to be rotatably attached to the handle. In order to facilitate the assembly, the handle is provided with resilient bearing (11, 12) which allows the pivots to be mounted in the handle by a snap-in function.
Claims8
A device in a power-driven tool such as a motor saw, comprising a handle (10;
- 20) having a gas control (14;
- 24) rotatably attached thereto, wherein the gas control has a pivot (14a;
- 24a) and the handle has resilient bearing means (12;
- 21, 22), the bearing means having a constricted opening, allowing said gas control to be mounted to the handle by radially pushing said pivot through the constricted opening so that said bearing means resiliently deflects and said pivot snaps into engagement with said bearing means and, after mounting, holding said pivot rotatable in said handle.
