This idea is illustrated in Figures 1 .and 2 wherein the length of any member 3, between 5 the support 2 and the aforesaid line, in which the planes of :the. members 13 intersect, is slightly greater than the length of said member 3 between said line and the-rod 4. Accordingly, the width ofthe longer arm. of saidfmember 3 is increased somewhat,
preferably adjacentthe support 2; "As a result, the'aXis of rotation is maintained. Substantially in coincidence with the aforesaid 4; The lattermay have torsional flexibility but should be of relatively great stiffness sidewisel f As illustrative'of another of the various forms=my invention may take, I have illustrated in Figures 3 and 4 a device generally the same'a's that of Figures 1 and 2:but em bodying U-shape resilient member-3a in lieu of the straight resilient members 3. The members 3a are duplicates of each other and each has both arms of theU lying in substan tially the'same plane. When assembled, the planes ofeach of the members 3a should intersect in substantially the same straight line, and it is about this line that the'pointer '35 6 should move. a I u g Although herein illustrated as embodied in adeflecting or indicating instrument, it is toibe understood that my'novel formof pivot structure is susceptible of other uses;- For 40 example, inmany arts, it is desirabletoeliminate, to the maximum extent, the friction de-' veloped between relatively movable parts, or
v to eliminatefrictional" surfacesentirely. The device herein j illustrated satisfies that "need.
: When utilized inlieu of a frictional bearing surface,- pointer '6 should; be'. eliminated. Moreover, under such Q11C11D1Sl3a11CeS,'1t is deother 'hand, shall beduplicatjes ofjeach other. 'Qrdlnarily, it is'desirable that three of the resilient members '3, 3a, or equivalents, be
