Patent

CA 2198705

A slack adjuster (1) for a cable operated system, such as a brake assembly operable by a brake lever (2), includes two drive parts (9) and (10) which are engageable to form a drive connection between the brake lever (2) and the cable (29) to enable the lever (2) to impart an actuating force to the cable (29) during movement of the lever (2) between a rest and a fully actuated position. The slack adjuster (1) further includes a pivotal lever (23) which is operable to disengage the drive parts (9) and (10) during a predetermined portion of one of either the applied or release strokes of the brake lever (2), but inoperative during other portions of the strokes, thereby enabling adjustment of slack in the cable (29) by movement of one drive part (9, 10) relative to the other drive part (10, 9) to occur only during the one stroke.

Un tendeur de câble (1), destiné à un système commandé par câble tel qu'un ensemble frein commandé par un levier de frein (2), comprend deux pièces d'entraînement (9, 10) pouvant entrer en prise pour former une liaison d'entraînement entre le levier de frein (2) et un câble (29), ce qui permet de conférer à ce câble (29) une force opérationnelle quand on déplace ce levier (2) entre une position de repos et une position pleinement opérationnelle. Ce tendeur de câble (1) comprend aussi un levier pivotant (23) permettant de désolidariser ces pièces d'entraînement (9, 10) pendant une partie déterminée des phases d'entrée en prise ou de libération du levier de frein (2), mais restant inopérant pendant les autres parties de ces phases, ce qui permet de régler le mou du câble (29) par le déplacement d'une pièce d'entraînement (9, 10) par rapport à l'autre (9, 10) pendant une de ces phases seulement.
