Abstract
A pivotable joint including a first part provided with pivot bores and a second part with resiliently mounted pivot pins received in said pivot bores such that the second part is pivotably mounted in a desired assembled position. The first part has a closed tubular cross section and may be a section of the intake manifold of an internal combustion engine. The resiliently mounted pivot pins are symmetrically mounted on opposite sides of the second part, which may be a throttle valve. The pivot pins are elastically displaceable axially during assembly of the first and second parts such that they snap resiliently into the pivot bores of the first part when the second part reaches the desired assembled position.
