Abstract
A motion transmitting remote control assembly (10,10',10') includes a flexible conduit (12,12',12') and a flexible core element (16,16',16') movably supported by the conduit (12,12',12'). A slider member (26,26',26') is fixedly attached to either the conduit (12,12',12') or the core element (16,16',16'), depending upon whether the application is a length adjustable conduit (12,12',12') or a length adjustable core element (16,16',16'). A support member (18,18',18') slideably supports the slider member (26,26',26') while preventing rotational movement therebetween. A locking member (38,38',38') is continuously biased toward locking engagement with the slider member (26,26',26') by a spring (50,50',50'). A lever (86,86',86') is pivotally connected to the support member (18,18',18') and is moveable between a first portion in which the lever (86,86',86') depresses the locking member (38,38',38') against the spring (50,50',50' ) and thereby maintains the locking member (38,38',38') disengaged from the slider member (26,26',26') and a second position in which the lever (86,86',86') is positioned free from interaction with the locking member (38,38',38').
