A telescopic transmission assembly includes first and second stage rods, and first and second stage casings. The second stage rod is of a hollow structure having inner and outer surfaces and a through hole, the outer surface being provided with external threads, and the inner surface being devoid of threads. The first stage rod is disposed in the through hole to drive the second stage rod to rotate synchronously. The first and second stage rods are telescopically expandable or contractible relative to each other along an axial direction. The second stage casing sleeves over the first stage casing. The first and second stage casings have respectively first and second transmission nuts. The second and first stage rods are in a screw-thread fit with the first and second transmission nuts, respectively. The second stage rod is positioned with the first transmission nut in the axial direction in a rotatable manner.

In this cable linking device, when a lock member (16) is located in a restricting position for restricting the movement of a joint piece (13), an interposing member (17) can move to an interposing position between the lock member (16) and a holding member (11) and the interposing member (17) can be shifted between the interposing position and a movement-permitting position, and when the interposing member (17) has moved to the interposing position, the lock member (16) is restricted from moving to a restriction release position for releasing the restriction on the movement of the joint piece (13), therefore preventing a linking member from accidentally moving farther into the holding member.

An inside handle device for vehicle includes a handle unit and a cable unit. In the handle unit, an operation handle including a connecting recess is rotatably connected to a handle base. The cable unit is connected to the handle unit while holding one end of an operating force transmission cable in which an inner cable is movably inserted into an outer cable. The connecting recess is locked to a connecting body formed at a tip end of the inner cable in a state where the handle unit is connected to the cable unit.

A Bowden cable end piece that facilitates the connection of a Bowden cable to an operating mechanism is disclosed. The end piece includes an elongated frame having a receptacle configured to receive a sheath of a Bowden cable and guide a core of a Bowden cable. The frame has a barrel guide configured to receive a barrel formed on an end of the core. An attachment member on a first end of the frame provides a holding connection with the operating mechanism in an insertion position and an end position. A mounting spring on a second end of the frame has an abutment region configured to abut a mounting surface on a support structure when the Bowden cable end piece is installed in the end position. The Bowden cable end piece can be, in the installed state, pressably attached by the mounting spring in the end position.

An anti-buckling device for an interventional device assembly includes a telescoping tube having a proximal end and a distal end, the proximal end of the telescoping tube being coupled to a first hub of an interventional device assembly, and a distal retainer coupled to the distal end of the telescoping tube, the distal retainer being configured to releasably couple to a distal hub attachment at a distal end of the first hub in a first configuration and releasably couple to a second hub of the interventional device assembly positioned distal to the first hub in a second configuration.

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, the plurality of tube segments including an outermost tube segment and one or more inner tube segments. Each of the one or more inner tube segments comprises a first tube section having a first outer diameter and a second tube section having a second outer diameter.

An interventional device assembly includes a first hub positioned along a drive table, the first hub having a proximal end and a distal end, an interventional device coupled to the first hub and extending distally therefrom, and a telescoping tube having a proximal end and a distal end. The proximal end of the telescoping tube is secured within an interior of the first hub between the proximal end of the first hub and the distal end of the first hub. The distal end of the telescoping tube is configured to secure to a second hub positioned along the drive table or a distal attachment coupled to the drive table. At least a portion of the interventional device extends through the telescoping tube.

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.

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.
