ABSTRACT:
An improved control assembly is provided for supporting a helically coiled flexible conductor between two components that are movable relative to one another. The control assembly is slidably movable along a support rod in response to movement of one component relative to the other and is floatable upon the support rod to enable the control assembly to maintain proper alignment with the support rod along the length of the rod. In addition, as convolutions of the coiled conductor are discharged over a knob at the end of the control assembly, the control assembly is rotationally indexed around the support rod so that wear of the interior surface of the control assembly is evenly distributed around the internal bore of the control assembly.
