Abstract

1394836 Steering gear ROCKWELL INTERNATIONAL CORP 26 Sept 1972 [17 Nov 1971] 44460/72 Heading B7V [Also in Division F2] A motion transmitting remote control mechanism, e.g. for a marine steering system for steering the drive assembly of an inboardoutboard propulsion system, includes a pair of Bowden cable cores 24 separately wound around driving and driven drums 20, 22 which are carried by spaced apart support brackets 12, 14 respectively, a flexible double conduit cable hose 10, of the cable cores 24, extending between the support brackets 12, 14 and having at its ends screwed anchor terminal blocks 32 axially slidable but non-rotatably mounted in the respective brackets 12 or 14, tensioning nuts 40 being arranged on the threaded portions 39 of the anchor blocks 32 such that rotation of one or both the nuts 40 adjusts the tensions of the cable cores 24. The double conduit cable hose 10 (Fig. 4, not shown) has plastics inner sleeves 26, e.g. of nylon, polyethylene or self-lubricating P.T.F.E., to reduce sliding friction with the cable cores 24 with surrounding reinforcing helically wound tempered spring wires 28 and a plastics outer casing 30 which encapsulates the wire reinforced inner sleeves to complete the double conduit cable hose assembly 10. Plastics bearing blocks 34, secured in the anchor blocks 32, have flared guide bearing recesses 36 for the cable cores 24. Each cable core 24 has swaged end fittings (64) (Fig. 5, not shown) by which the core 24 after being assembled, i.e. wound, on the drums 20, 22 is fitted in a drum side pocket 62 to link the end of the cable core run to the drum. A manually operated steering wheel 16 is directly connected by a shaft 18 to the driving drum 20. In a modification (Figs. 7 and 8, not shown) the driving drum 20 is replaced by a large pulley-gear (66) which is driven by a pinion (76) on the steering wheel input shaft (74), the cable cores 24 only extending around the pulley (66) for approximately one wrapping, the gear reduction allowing multiple turns of the steering wheel 16 without making a complete rotation of the driven drum 22. Fig. 6 (not shown) illustrates the remote control cable drive operating a marine steering system incorporating a variable torque output linkwork mechanism as described and claimed in co-pending Divisional Specification 1,394,837.
