ABSTRACT:
Remote control flexible shaft having a balanced torsion deflection in either direction of rotation when subjected to torsional loads. Balanced torsional deflection provides the same "feel" of the control element, whether a wheel, valve, knob, or the like, and the same "lag" period before response of the controlled element, regardless of direction of rotation of the control element. The shaft employs interconnected equal lengths of conventional flexible shafting of identical construction except for the opposite lay of the wires comprising each respective layer of each length. Specific torsional deflection characteristics may be obtained by varying lengths and/or construction of the two flexible shaft lengths, or more than two lengths of shafting may be employed.
