Abstract
A preloading mechanism including: a first part having a protrusion; and a second part having a recess that matches the protrusion; wherein the recess includes a gib that is flexibly movable via a flexure; wherein a dimension of the recess varies based on a flexing of the gib; when the gib is in a neutral state, the dimension of the recess is smaller than a corresponding dimension of the protrusion; when the gib is in a flexed state, the dimension of the recess is larger than the corresponding dimension of the protrusion; and when the protrusion is inserted into the recess, the gib is in an interfering state, providing a preload force for eliminating a clearance between a surface of the protrusion and a corresponding surface of the recess, wherein the flexing of gib in the interfering state is between those of the neutral state and flexed state.
