Cable adjuster

A cable adjuster has a main case, an outer casing fixing member, a number of sliders, and a locking member. The main case is configured to insert the inner cable in the cable axial direction. The outer casing fixing member affixes to an end of a pre-branch outer casing, which is the tube section of the outer casing before branching, to the main case. The sliders are arranged in parallel in the slots formed in the main case so as to slide in the cable axial direction. The sliders affixes to the ends of a plurality of post-branch outer casings, which are the post-branch tube sections of the outer casing. The locking member locks the sliding movement of the sliders with respect to the main case in the cable axial direction.

Modular cable replacement

The present disclosure provides a cable coupling assembly for releasably coupling a first cable subassembly and a second cable assembly. The second cable subassembly includes a coupler affixed to a core of the second cable subassembly. The coupler is configured to engage a first slug of the first cable assembly in a capture socket of the coupler, wherein the coupler is slidably received within a casing connected to the first cable subassembly. The coupler can be affixed to the core of the second cable subassembly to preclude longitudinal translation or rotation relative to the second core.
