Abstract

See full text

A rotary damper with a toothed wheel gear projecting away from a housing having snap-in connection structures disposed on opposing sides of the wheel gear. The wheel gear may be inserted through a panel opening having a pair of opposing transverse slots. In the assembled condition, the housing with the connected wheel gear may slide linearly in the longitudinal direction of the slots to permit self-adjustment relative to an operatively connected mating gear. Proper meshing relation between the wheel gear and the mating gear is thereby maintained.
