Abstract: An actuator for operating a remotely positioned, for example, spring-biased latch mechanism, or mechanical actuator, by a sheathed control cable. The actuating mechanism includes a plastic housing having a pivotally mounted, hand-operated member provided with two spaced zones for receiving at least one end of a flexible control cable. The housing is also provided with a pair of elements which secure the control cable sheath adjacent each of the pair of spaced zones for receiving one end of a flexible control cable. The two positions, or spaced zones, for receiving the flexible control cable are spaced at different distances from a pivot pin for the lever actuator.

Abstract: Structures for actuating a remotely positioned, spring-biased latch mechanism or mechanical actuator consisting of a sheathed control cable having one end connected to a latch mechanism, a plastic housing, having fitted therein a plastic shuttle. The shuttle is attached to one end of the flexible cable, and the housing is attached to the cable sheath. A push button has a stem which passes through the shuttle, and the stem and the shuttle have cooperating, inclined walls such that when the button is depressed, the shuttle is cammed laterally to actuate the latch.

Abstract: A lawn sprinkler which may be easily disassembled for replacement of the sprinkler assembly or parts thereof to accommodate changes in surrounding soil or grass level. The lawn sprinkler includes a sprinkler body having its upper end opened and an inlet at its bottom end for receiving water into the sprinkler body from an underground supply of water under pressure. A suitable closure member is removably connected to the upper end of the sprinkler body and includes a central passageway. A sprinkler assembly is mounted for movement relative to the sprinkler body between a retracted position and an extended position and includes a longitudinally extending pipe for the passage of water under pressure therethrough. The sprinkler assembly may be easily removed from the sprinkler body for replacement of parts by simply removing the closure member from the upper end of the sprinkler body.
