ABSTRACT:
The adjustable cable sheath terminal for a sheathed cable includes a securable cylindrical hollow main body (CP) having a plurality of radial throughgoing openings (5) and an axial throughgoing opening (8) for a sheathless cable portion; an adjusting rod (RE) slidable over a distance in the hollow body (CP) and having an external screw thread (1), the adjusting rod (RE) being fixed at one end to a sheath of the sheathed cable and being slidable with the sheath; a plurality of retaining fingers (GR) with resilient projections for spring-biasing radially outwardly held in the radial throughgoing openings (5), each retaining finger having an internal thread for engagement with the external screw thread (1) of the adjusting rod (RE) so that, when the retaining fingers are engaged with the adjusting rod (RE), the adjusting rod cannot rotate relative to the retaining fingers and is held fixed; and a lock nut (TA) rotatable around the hollow main body (CP) and the radial throughgoing openings (5) containing the retaining fingers (GR) and having interior longitudinal tightening projections for engagement with the retaining fingers (GR) to engage the internal threads of the retaining fingers (GR) with the external screw thread (1) in at least one rotational position of the lock nut. Projections are provided on the interior of the lock nut engagable in recesses of the hollow body for holding the lock nut in position.
