Side loading transmission pin cable attachment device
10316885 · 2019-06-11 · ·

A motor vehicle transmission cable attachment device includes a body having a slot receiving a pin in a body sliding direction transverse to a pin longitudinal axis. A member has a portion displaced at least partially into the slot when the pin is received in the slot, the portion thereafter preventing release of the pin from the slot. A lock supported on the body is moved between a lock disengaged position to a lock engaged position when the pin is received in the slot. A lock-out slide is moved from a first position wherein a lock-out slide portion is received in a lock cavity in the lock disengaged position to a second position when the pin is received in the slot. The second position has the lock-out slide portion positioned outside of the lock allowing the lock to be displaced to the lock engaged position.

Bowden Cable Coupling For Releasably Coupling A First Bowden Cable To A Second Bowden Cable
20240200591 · 2024-06-20 ·

A Bowden cable coupling for releasably coupling a first Bowden cable to a second Bowden cable is configured and operable to transmit mechanical forces from an activation element to a functional element. The Bowden cable coupling has a first coupling unit which is connected to the first Bowden cable, a second coupling unit which is connected to the second Bowden cable, and a coupling sleeve for connecting the first coupling unit and the second coupling unit together, wherein the first coupling unit and the coupling sleeve are releasably connected to one another by way of a bayonet closure.

COUPLING END PIECE FOR A CONTROL CABLE FROM A GEARBOX TO A BALL JOINT
20190154077 · 2019-05-23 ·

A connector end piece of a control cable from a vehicle transmission to a ball joint of a part of a gearshift or of a part of the transmission, where the end piece is intended to go over the cable and includes a radial window able to receive, by engagement, a cover having an inner threaded portion, where the cover is movable from a disengaged position to an engaged position in which it engages with a threaded end portion of the cable and locks said cable in position. The end piece comprises an end annular portion, coaxial with the cable, and receiving a security ring, said security ring being movable from an unlocked position to a locked position in which the cover is in disengaged position, the ring holds the cover in the disengaged position and prevents the cover from moving into the engaged position; and when the cover is in engaged position, the ring holds the cover in the engaged position and prevents the cover from moving into the disengaged position.

Locking mechanism for a control cable adjuster
10280968 · 2019-05-07 · ·

An assembly for adjusting a cable that includes a locking sleeve and an adapter that is connected to the cable. The adapter includes male and female-threaded portions that are coupled together. The locking sleeve is configured to be displaced between engagement and disengagement positions. When in the engagement position, securing devices of the male and female-threaded portions engage inner sections of the locking sleeve in a manner that prevents the male and female-threaded portions from being rotated relative to each other, thereby preventing a change in the length of the adapter so as to prevent an adjustment of the cable. When the cable is to be adjusted, the locking sleeve is displaced to disengagement position such that the securing device of either the male or female-threaded portion is disengaged from the locking sleeve, thereby allowing rotation of the male or female-threaded portions relative to each other.

Bicycle operating device
10259533 · 2019-04-16 · ·

A bicycle operating device includes a base member, a positioning ratchet, a positioning member, a pulling member, a pulling pawl and first and second release members. The positioning ratchet pivots in first and second directions. The positioning member moves between a holding position that prevents pivoting of the positioning ratchet in the first direction, and a releasing position that releases the positioning ratchet in the first direction. The pulling member pivots the positioning ratchet in the second direction as the pulling member is moved by the pulling pawl. The first release member moves the positioning member from the holding position to the releasing position. The second release member moves the pulling pawl away from the pulling member. The second release member extends between opposite axial sides of the positioning ratchet. The first release member and the pulling member are positioned on opposite axial sides of the positioning ratchet.

Transmission cable locking device for vehicles

A transmission cable locking device for vehicles may include a plurality of opposing locking clips rotating with respect to each other wherein the rotation determines a grip or release state of a transmission cable; a locking band provided between the locking clips and providing interconnecting tension between the locking clips; and a housing accommodating the locking clips and the locking band, and in which a hinge shaft is formed wherein the locking clips are coupled to the internal surface to rotate.
