A two-piece expanding lock control cable end fitting (3) for connecting a coaxial cable assembly (10) with a support structure (16). The first piece is a sleeve (20) that is attached typically by crimping to the conduit member (12). The second part is a lock clip member (30, 130). The lock clip member (30, 130) includes a base flange (31), a cylindrical portion (32) and an inclined portion (34). During assembly, the base flange (31) will contact the mating part (16) and prevent the clip member (30, 130) from travelling through the mating part (16). The mating part (16) could be a backing plate, a frame member, or a brake lever compartment. When the clip member (30, 130) stops travel through the mating part (16), the sleeve (20) continues to move through the clip member (30, 130). The end of the sleeve (20) contacts the inclined portion (34) of the clip member (30, 130) causing the clip member (30, 130) to expand. When the sleeve (20) is fully seated in the clip member (30, 130), a locking feature (39) on the clip member (30, 130) engages the sleeve (20) to prevent removal of the sleeve (20) from the clip member (30, 130).

L'invention concerne un raccord expansible (3) pour embouts de câbles à deux éléments et commande de verrouillage permettant de raccorder un ensemble (10) de câbles coaxiaux à une structure de support (16). Le premier élément est un manchon (20) qui est traditionnellement fixé en étant serti sur un conduit (12). Le deuxième élément est un serre-câble (30, 130). Ce dernier comprend une bride de base (31), une partie cylindrique (32) et une partie inclinée (34). Lors de l'assemblage, la bride de base (31) entre en contact avec l'élément d'accouplement (16) et empêche le serre-câble (30, 130) de se déplacer jusqu'à l'élément d'accouplement (16). Ce dernier peut être un plateau de frein, un élément de châssis ou un compartiment de levier de frein. Lorsque le serre-câble (30, 130) arrête de se déplacer jusqu'à l'élément d'accouplement (16), le manchon (20) continue de se déplacer jusqu'au serre-câble (30, 130). L'extrémité du manchon (20) entre en contact avec la partie inclinée (34) du serre-câble (30, 130) ce qui provoque la dilatation de ce dernier (30, 130). Une fois le manchon (20) totalement logé dans le serre-câble (30, 130), un élément de verrouillage (39) sur le serre-câble (30, 130) se met en prise avec le manchon (20) pour empêcher ce dernier de se retirer du serre-câble (30, 130).
