ABSTRACT:
Device for automatically taking up play designed to be inserted between two consecutive portions of a mechanical control.
The device includes two telescopic connecting parts (32, 34), which are movable in the axial sense within a fixed casing (22), and are respectively connected to consecutive portions (10, 12) of the control and releasable lock (66) which operate unidirectionally when the connecting parts move in the linear sense, characterized in that the lock comprises a component constituting a cam or eccentric (66) pivotally mounted on one of the connecting parts (32) so as to come into engagement with a surface (76) arranged opposite it on the other of the connecting parts (34) when the control is operated in an axial sense so as to provide, as a result of a wedging action, locking of the two connecting parts in the sense of linear movement.
