Embodiment Construction

[0038] Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0039] figure 1 A first preferred embodiment of the adjusting device 1 is shown in longitudinal section through the center axis 2 . The adjusting device 1 is mainly composed of three parts: a first threaded sleeve 10 , a second threaded sleeve 20 , and an adjusting sheath 30 . The adjustment device 1 is used to adjust the length of the control cables 56, 60, 70, these cables comprise a continuous cable 50 and sheaths 60, 70, the sheaths 60, 70 are divided by the adjustment device 1 into a first part 60 and a second part. Two parts 70.

[0040] The first threaded sleeve 10 comprises an external thread 12 in a first direction of rotation, for example a left-handed thread. In the mounted state, the outer thread 12 of the first threaded sleeve 10 is screwed into the first inner thread 31 of the adjusting sleeve 30 . If the external thread 12 is a left-ha...

Abstract

The present invention relates to an adjustment device 1 for a control cable 50, 60, 70 comprising of a sheath 60, 70 and a cable 50, comprising a first threaded sleeve 10, comprising an outer thread 12 in a first sense of rotation, a second threaded sleeve 20, comprising an outer thread 22 in a second sense of rotation and an adjustment sleeve 30 comprising a first inner thread 31 in the first sense of rotation, which engages the outer thread 12 of the first threaded sleeve 10 and a second inner thread 32 in the second sense of rotation, which engages the outer thread 22 of the second threaded sleeve 20, wherein the first threaded sleeve 10 is held rotatably fixed by means of a first part 60 of the sheath 60, 70 of the control cable 50, 60, 70 and the second threaded sleeve 20 is held rotatably fixed by means of a second part 70 of the sheath 60, 70 of the control cable 50, 60, 70.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an adjustment device for a control cable which allows a simple and reliable adjustment of the length of the control cable to an actuated device. Background technique [0002] Control cables are also called Bowden cables and are used in motor vehicles, machinery, or bicycles, among others. Typically, a control cable is used as the connection between an actuating device, such as a pedal or a lever, and an actuated device, such as a brake or clutch. The length of the control cable between the actuating device and the actuated device must be precisely adjusted so that the device can be actuated correctly. Typically, the brake or clutch is adjusted or readjusted by controlling the length of the cable. [0003] Control cables are capable of transmitting tension and compression to remote locations. They generally consist of a flexible sheath formed of a metal helix covered with plastic material, and a cable, usually formed of a ste...
