ABSTRACT:
An actuator for mounting on a part such as a cycle handgrip and for operating a cable having a core and a sheath has a one-piece lever, a one-piece support carrying the lever, and a clamp for securing the support to the part. The lever is unitarily formed with an elongated handle, with a laterally projecting foot having a pair of opposite outwardly facing sides, with respective coaxially aligned cylindrical pivot pins projecting oppositely outwardly from the sides, and with a holding formation for the end of the cable core. The support is unitarily formed with a face shaped to fit against the part, with a recess opening laterally at the face, having a pair of confronting flanks, and shaped to complementarily receive the foot with its sides engaging the flanks, with respective seats opening laterally at the face, opening inwardly at the respective flanks of the recess, and shaped to complementarily receive the respective cylindrical pins when the foot is in the recess, with a guide for the cable core anchored in the holding formation, and with an abutment for the sheath of the cable. The clamp means includes a ring adapted to surround the part carrying the actuator and with a screw engaged through the support with the ends of the ring.
