Abstract
A motion transmitting remote control assembly (10) for transmitting forces along a curved path by a flexible core element (26) slidably disposed witin a flexible conduit (12). The assembly (10) includes an elongated member (62) for adjusting the longitudinal position of the conduit (12) by being slidably disposed within a passageway (68) of a support member (32). A locking clip (86) is movable between a disengaged position for permitting relative longitudinal movement between the elongated member (62) and the base (32) and an engaged position for preventing longitudinal movement therebetween. The improvement resides in the elongated member (62) being rotatably supported on the conduit (12) to allow rotation of the conduit (12) relative to the support member (32) while in an engaged position.
