ABSTRACT:
A key cylinder selectively locks and unlocks a lock mechanism. The key cylinder has a rotor and a lever. The rotor is rotated by a key. The lever connects the rotor to the lock mechanism. The key cylinder has a recess formed in an end of the rotor. An end portion of the lever fits in the recess. A cushion is located between the basal end of the lever and the recess. The cushion holds the lever such that an axis of the lever and an axis of the rotor forms an angle within a predetermined range of angles.
