DEFINITION

Classification: 24/621

Plastic deformation of means or surface required for mounting:

(under subclass 620) Mounting means in which either the portion of mounting means inserted into the projection or a portion of the projection member engaging therewith is permanently deformed during the mounting operation by a destructive force (i.e., a force in excess of the amount necessary for its plastic deformation to the material) which completes the connection between the two.
