Abstract: The position of a lever is adjustable relative to its bearing via a locking clip that is arranged opposite to a catch. The lever is arranged in a bearing shell with a ball therein in which the lever is arranged so as to be displaceable with the catch attached. The locking clip is guided in the walls of the ball, and the locking of the locking clip and catch in the closed state of the bearing shell forms a positive engagement. The adjustable ball bearing apparatus for shift levers and selector levers compensates for tolerances in the installation of a lever between the ball, the bearing shell, and the axis of the lever.

Abstract: A gearshift lever with a reverse gear lock-out, having a manual gearshift lever with a gearshift knob, beneath which are placed the control line sheath, the ball, an elbow lever, and the transmission mechanism to actuate reverse gear. There is a lever of the reverse gear lock-out that can pivot around a pin in the housing, on which the transmission mechanism acts, and that blocks the motion of the elbow lever. The elbow lever has one shaft that can pivot on the housing and another shaft that receives a selector finger of the ball.

Abstract: A gasket for the passage of at least one cable control line in the wall of an engine compartment, principally the engine chamber of motor vehicles, with the gasket being premounted on the cable control line and closing the engine compartment opening for the cable control line quickly and tightly, and having a slider. The gasket has a circumferential groove for the wall of the engine compartment, a recess for a slider, at least one opening for the cable control line, and at least one mounting groove for mounting clips of a slider. The slider has bridges and mounting clips that engage in the mounting grooves of the gasket. There is also a blocking lip on the gasket, which in the mounted state prevents the slider from sliding back, and a pull device on the slider.

Abstract: A cushioned bearing shell for mounting the manual gearshift lever in the gearshift housing of motor vehicles includes the manual gearshift lever, which can pivot around the bearing ball mounted in the bearing shell. The assembly includes two half-shells encircling the bearing ball that are split horizontally to the shaft of the manual gearshift lever and are cushioned, two split bearing shells encircling the bearing ball with half shells, which are split essentially lengthwise of the shaft of the gearshift lever, and a gearshift housing in which the split bearing shells are fitted with the shift lever, the bearing ball, and the half-shells, and which holds the split bearing shells firmly together.

Abstract: A wire cable for transmitting motions inside a control cable sheath, preferably to transmit the motion of a gearshift or selector lever to the transmission of a motor vehicle, is formed by a core and wires placed around it. The core wire is enclosed by multiple helical wires that constitute at least one wire layer. At least one enclosing wire has a larger diameter (b) than the other enclosing wires, so that a wire cable is formed with an out-of-round diameter along the wire.

Abstract: The invention is directed to an adjustable bearing ball apparatus for shift levers or selector levers. The position of a lever is adjustable relative to its bearing via a locking clip that is arranged opposite to a catch. The lever is arranged in a bearing shell with a ball therein in which the lever is arranged so as to be displaceable with the catch attached. The locking clip is guided in the walls of the ball, and the locking of the locking clip and catch in the closed state of the bearing shell forms a positive engagement. The invention is suitable for compensating for tolerances in the installation of a lever between the ball, the bearing shell, and the axis of the lever in a simple and reliable manner.
