Methods in accordance with the present invention can eliminate cumbersome
and potentially contaminating methods for connecting a bearing assembly with an
actuator assembly. One such assembly comprises a bearing assembly with a threaded
base for insertion into a bore, wherein the bore includes threads for engaging
the threaded base of the bearing assembly, eliminating the contamination associated
with such methods as glueing. The bearing assembly is designed such that it can
be disconnected from the actuator assembly for rework without damaging or contaminating
the actuator assembly or bearing assembly. This description is not intended to
be a complete description of, or limit the scope of, the invention. Other features,
aspects, and objects of the invention can be obtained from a review of the specification,
the figures, and the claims.
