    Abstract: At least one chamfer (10, 11) is produced on each of the parts (2, 3) to be assembled, which chamfer is inclined in relation to the faces of the part, along one of its edges. The chamfer (10, 11) may be produced during the cutting out of the part (2, 3) in a metallic plate. The parts are placed in assembly position with their chamfers (10, 11) in contact over a bearing plane.
