ABSTRACT:
A motion transmitting remote control cable assembly (10) comprises a core adjustment mechanism (16, 18, 20) disposed on one end of a core element (12) for adjusting the length of the core element. The core adjustment mechanism comprises a slider member (16) attached to the end of the core element (12) and a housing (18) for slidably supporting the slider member as the slider reciprocates within the housing in response to movement of the core element. The core adjustment mechanism also includes a lock mechanism (20) disposed on the housing for locking the slider member (16) in a given position with respect to the housing (18). A spring (22) is disposed within a partially enclosed space (17) in the slider member (16). The assembly (10) is characterized by a spring tab (24) extending from the housing (18) into the space (17) defined by the slider member (16) to abut one end of the spring (22) so that the slider member telescopes over the spring tab as the spring reacts between the slider member and the spring tab.
