ABSTRACT:
A flexible motion transmitting remote control assembly (10) for high load force transmission over long distance includes a motion transmitting core element (20) slidably disposed within a tubular casing (12). A roller assembly (24) along with upper (32) and lower (32') races position the core element (20) within the casing (12) for minimizing sliding friction. The upper (32) and lower (32') races each have a shoulder (42') at one end for retaining that end of the race in a fixed position within the casing (12). The opposite end of the upper (32) and lower (32') races are each provided with a post (52, 52') which protrude through respective axially extending slots (66, 66') in the casing (12). As the casing (12) is routed during installation to form curved sections between its two ends, the respective posts (52, 52') on the upper (32) and lower (32') races are displaced axially within their slots (66, 66') through the casing (12). Respective clamps (58, 60) then lock the posts (52, 52') against further movement relative to the casing (12). A turnbuckle sleeve (90) is rotated to change the length of the casing (12) between the two locked ends of the upper (32) and lower (32') races for accurately setting the backlash.
