ABSTRACT:
A flexural pivot formed from two members (12, 16) each of which have a large diameter portion (13, 17) extending more than 180.degree. circumferentially around the pivot and a small diameter portion (14, 18) disposed between the circumferentially spaced ends of the large diameter portion (13, 17). Flat springs (21, 22) interconnect the two members (12, 16). The flexural pivot can be of the cantilever type (10) wherein both members (12, 16) have relatively the same shape or of the double ended type (60) wherein the two members (62, 66) have different shapes. In either embodiment, the smaller outer diameter portions of one member fit in the circumferentially defined space between the larger outer diameter portions of the other member. The disclosed construction eliminates the need for a separate supporting sleeve for the flexural pivot (110, 60).
