Abstract
A lever pivoting structure is mounted on an inner panel of a vehicle door. The structure comprises a first circular opening formed in the inner panel and a shaft member including a body portion, an enlarged flange portion formed on a rear end of the body portion and a stopper head portion formed on a front end of the body portion. The stopper head portion establishes a latched engagement with the first circular opening once the stopper head portion is put into the first circular opening. A pivot lever is formed with a second circular opening through which the body portion of the shaft member passes. The pivot lever has a first surface to which the enlarged flange portion faces and a second surface to which the stopper head portion faces. Resilient stopper tongues are integrally formed on the body portion of the shaft member and extend toward the enlarged flange portion while gradually separating from an axis of said shaft member. Free ends of the resilient stopper tongues abut against the second surface of the pivot lever upon engagement between the shaft member and the pivot lever.
