ABSTRACT:
An automatic or manually adjustable slack adjuster for inclusion in a reciprocating, force transmitting mechanical mechanism that must function in a relatively maintenance free manner in a hostile, corrosive atmosphere. The adjuster, while utilizing the ratchet-worm principal, is capable of exerting relatively large adjusting forces while having relatively small physical dimensions. All working parts other than input and output rods may be sealed against the atmosphere and permanently lubricated, although access to such parts is available for manual adjustment if desired.
