ABSTRACT:
A housing and bearing assembly in which an ocillating shaft is rotatably supported. Two bearings are positioned in the housing to provide said support. One of the bearings is located in a small diameter portion of the housing and may be retained therein by a circumferential protuberance formed in the housing. The other bearing is pressed into a larger diameter portion of the housing which has a plurality of tapered or other geometric shaped ramps formed therein. As the bearing abuts the ends of the ramps during assembly, the ramps shear from the housing to form axial columnar supports for the bearing to prevent further intrusion of the bearing into said housing after the desired bearing position is attained by the pressing operation.
