WIPPEN OR REPETITION FLANGE BUSHING
20250259607 · 2025-08-14 ·

An injection molded wippen or repetition flange bushing for a grand piano action where the bushing has four supports posts or elongated appendages projecting outward from the outer surface of the sleeve member of the injection molded wippen or repetition flange bushing. The four supports posts help reduce or eliminate shrinkage of the sleeve member during the cooling stage in the manufacturing of the injection molded wippen or repetition flange bushing. This occurs because shrinkage occurs in the four support posts and not in the sleeve member portion of the injection molded wippen or repetition flange bushing. The result is a perfectly straight bushing with an extremely precise and accurate bushing surface that produces perfect wippen or repetition rotation.
