ABSTRACT:
A speed controller for vehicle comprises speed sensors which output to a controller which in turn outputs to a servo motor. The servo is connected to the inner cable of a co-axial cable, the outer sheath of which is lodged between a buttress and the engine throttle. The distance between the buttress and the engine throttle lever is, at least when the throttle is closed, shorter than the length of the outer sheath such that the outer sheath obtains a curved configuration. The inner cable extends beyond the engine throttle lever to a support. Accordingly, when the controller operates the servo to draw in the inner cable, the outer sheath is urged to straighten and, thereby, push against the engine throttle lever to open it. Conversely, when the inner cable is paid out, the outer sheath is relaxed to allow the engine throttle lever to close.
