ABSTRACT:
The present invention concerns a control cable attachment assembly for adjustably supporting one end of a flexible control cable relative to an associated support member. The control cable includes an outer casing having a wire cable slidably mounted therein. One end of the outer casing is provided with an externally threaded portion. A snap-in adapter element includes an aperture for slidably receiving the externally threaded end of the cable casing. The snap-in adapter element can be snapped into a cooperating mounting hole provided on an associate support member. An adjusting nut is threadably mounted on the cable casing adjacent one end of the adapter for locating the cable housing in a predetermined fixed position relative to the support member, and a resilient rubber retaining ring is mounted on the threaded cable casing on the opposite side of the adapter element for maintaining the adapter element in its selected position.
