Abstract:
An elastic mating assembly includes a first component comprising a substantially rigid material and an aperture defined by an aperture wall. The assembly also includes an elastically deformable second component having a cutout portion. The elastically deformable second component also includes a second component outer wall removably engaged with the aperture wall, wherein the second component is disposed substantially within the aperture. The elastic mating assembly further includes a third component removably engaged with the cutout portion of the elastically deformable second component, wherein the elastically deformable second component is configured to elastically deform proximate the cutout portion upon contact with an outer surface of the third component.
