Abstract: Disclosed herein is an operating apparatus for an emergency release cable, which is capable of significantly improving durability and reliability and increasing the convenience of a driver and a passenger by preventing a malfunction of an emergency release lever through a structure which prevents abrasion of a fixing structure of the emergency release lever connected to the emergency release cable and a structure which automatically switches a transmission to the parking position as the fixing structure of the emergency release lever is released when the engine and the transmission are restarted.

Abstract: A structure for fixing a shift cable comprises a protective tube for receiving the shift cable therein, a connection tube installed outside the protective tube, a damper installed outside the connection tube to attenuate radial and axial vibration, a main casing which is installed outside the damper and forms a clearance for assembly with a mounting bracket, a sub-casing which is detachably coupled to the main casing by means of an axial assembly guide portion, and a cover which is supported by means of an elastic member with respect to the sub-casing and is installed such that an axial displacement of the cover is restricted with respect to the main casing.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a cable connection apparatus for vehicles which connects a cable of an operation mechanism to a connection member of a mechanism to be operated in vehicles. The cable connection apparatus includes a connector coupled to the connection member of the mechanism to be operated, an end shaft coupled to the cable of the operation mechanism and provided at the connector to be movable relative thereto, and a locker movably provided at one side of the connector in a direction across the end shaft to support and fix the end shaft. Consequently, the cable of the operation mechanism may be connected to the connection member of the mechanism to be operated in a length adjustable manner in the vehicles, thereby allowing cables having various lengths to be connected to the connection member.

Abstract: An annular isolator (68, 70) is disposed in an open ended bore (66) of a support body (58) and surrounds an end fitting (26, 28) for attenuating vibrations therebetween. A cap (74) is disposed on the support body (58) to close the open ended bore (66). An inflexible compression ring (76) is sandwiched axially between the isolator (68, 70) and the cap (74) and in abutting engagement with a stop (78) to limit compression of the isolator (68, 70) from the cap (74). The compression ring (76) is inserted into the bore (66) prior to molding the cap (74) to limit compression of the isolator (68, 70) during fabrication.

Abstract: A motion transmitting remote control assembly (20) of the type for transmitting motion in a curved path by a flexible core element (22) in a conduit (24) is secured to a support structure (76) having a U-shaped slot. A support body (66) defines a groove (84) having first and second legs (86, 88) for abutting parallel edges (78) of the U-shaped slot, and a bottom leg (90) connecting the first and second legs (86, 88) for abutting a bottom edge (80). Slider arms (94) movably supported within female guides (92) are urged against snap-in retainers (102) by biasing spring members (104) establishing a locking position. A pair of locking tabs (106) projecting from the slider arms (94) into the groove (84) engage notches (82) in the parallel edges (78). An inclined face (112) is defined along the lower surface (112) of the locking tabs (106) for wedging engagement with the parallel edges (78) of the U-shaped slot to move the slider arms (94) axially to an insertion position.
