ABSTRACT:
A motion-transmitting remote assembly (10) of the type for transmitting motion in a curved path including a tube member (14) and a rod member (18) movably supported by the tube member (14) and extending therefrom to provide a variable extending length of the rod member (18) between the tube member (14) and one end (68) of the rod member (18), the rod member (18) defining a line of force. An integral terminal member (20) operatively interconnects the extending length of the rod member (18) and a control member (22). The assembly is characterized by the terminal member (22) including an opening (38) therethrough defining an axis perpendicular to the line of force and having a containing portion for containing a body portion (32) of the control member (22) therein and a retaining portion for retaining a ball pin (36) extending from the body portion (32) of the control member (22) therein. The retaining portion includes a plurality of flexible fingers ( 50) defining the retaining portion of the opening (38) for engaging and retaining the ball pin (36) disposed within the opening (38).
