An anti-buckling device for an interventional device assembly, includes a telescoping tube having a plurality of concentric telescopically axially extendable and collapsible tube segments each with a proximal end and a distal end. One or more of the plurality of tube segments includes an inner diameter reducing feature configured to reduce an unsupported free length of an interventional device of the interventional device assembly when the interventional device extends through the telescoping tube, the inner diameter reducing feature attached to the distal end of its associated tube segment having a through hole configured to receive the interventional device therethrough.

An anti-buckling device for an interventional device assembly includes a telescoping tube having a plurality of concentric telescopically axially extendable and collapsible tube segments each having a proximal end and a distal end, the plurality of tube segments having an innermost tube segment and one or more outer tube segments, the innermost tube segment being configured to couple to a hub of an interventional device assembly, the telescoping tube being configured to extend distally from the hub. Each of the one or more outer tube segments is coupled to a cap at its proximal end, the cap having a through hole configured to receive an interventional device of the interventional device assembly therethrough and an outer diameter greater than an outer diameter of the outer tube segment to which the cap is coupled.

The invention relates to fastening elements for connecting transmission means such as tie rods, Bowden cables or the like to lever elements, in particular for motor vehicle locks, and to connecting arrangements equipped with such fastening elements. In order to allow reliable mounting and a structurally simple manufacture of the fastening elements, the fastening element is provided with a bayonet contour in such a manner that the fastening element, when mounted, is hinged to the lever element so as to be swiveled about a swivel axis. Owing to the swivelability and secure fastening to the lever element, the fastening element is particularly suitable for use in an actuation-force transmission chain between a motor vehicle lock and an actuating element for actuating said motor vehicle lock.

Button assemblies for controlling a seat position and for mounting on a seat panel are provided. The button assemblies may have a button housing having a portion that is configured to position over edges of an opening in the seat panel. One or more flexible retaining members integral to or attached to the button housing are configured to compress through the opening in the seat panel and expand therein positioned opposite an inner surface thereof upon insertion, securing the assembly within the opening.

Disclosed is a monobloc mounting bracket for a foot parking brake, The mounting bracket includes a pedal arm connection plate having a shaft installation hole at one side of one surface so as to rotatably install one end of a shaft for pivotably installing the pedal arm; a fixation plate extended to be bent in one direction from a front end of the pedal arm connection plate and having one pair of fixation holes so as to be fixed to the dashboard via multiple fixation members; a release member extended rewards from a rear end of the pedal arm connection plate and provided to install the release member via pin; and a cable suspension plate extended to be bent in a direction opposite to the fixation plate from a lower end of the pedal arm connection plate and having a cable suspension hole so as penetrate and suspend one end of the cable.

A cable actuator system includes an actuating cable for connection to an actuator and to an actuatable device and a bypass assembly connected to the actuating cable. The bypass assembly includes a bypass input with a first input position and with a second input position. With the bypass input in the first input position the bypass assembly acts on the cable such that an actuating movement of the cable by the actuator moves the cable an actuating distance at the actuatable device to actuate the actuatable device. With the bypass input in the second input position the bypass assembly acts on the cable such that the actuating movement of the cable by the actuator does not move the cable the actuating distance at the actuatable device. A vehicle seat, with a seat base, a backrest, an actuator, and a vehicle seat actuatable device, also includes the cable actuator system.

A control cable positioning, retaining and adjusting system, for mounting a sheathed cable assembly to a frame member, comprises a cable assembly housing having an axially extending, toothed region extending along at least a part of its length, a mounting bracket configured to supportingly receive the cable assembly housing and having an adjustment window to display the toothed region there-through. A cable assembly adjusting lever is mounted to the cable assembly receiver and has a first end comprising an actuator, a second end having a locking tooth extending therefrom and a mid-portion mounted to the cable assembly receiver such that the lever is pivotable thereabout, wherein the cable assembly adjusting lever is positioned such that the locking tooth engages the axially extending, toothed region of the cable assembly housing through the adjustment window or opening.

A shift cable clip for use in automatic transmission vehicles is described. In some embodiments, two clip segments encircle a circumference of a transmission shift-cable conduit end-fitting and attach to a transmission housing. Embodiments of the invention are lightweight, durable, efficient to manufacture, and labor-saving to install.
