An integrated component mounting system that includes a component mounted
to a shaft and secured in place by a nut. The component and the nut each
define respective annular shaped surfaces. The shaped surfaces are each
inclined at a similar angle and are arranged for sliding contact with
respect to each other. As the nut is tightened on the shaft, the shaped
surface of the nut exerts both radial and axial forces on the shaped
surface of the component, thereby automatically centering the component
radially on the shaft as well as securing the component at a desired
location along the shaft.
