Patent

CA 2182764

The invention is characterized by connection means for locking first (18) and second (20) core element sections together in a locked position mechanically prevented from moving relative to one another axially in either direction solely in response to axial forces transmitted along the core element sections (18,20) without buckling either of the core element sections (18,20). A male member (26) presents a male groove (30) and a female member (24) presents a female groove (32) and a lock ring (28) disposed in one of the grooves (30,32) with the lock ring (28) radially overlapping the male (30) and female (32) grooves in the locked position. A mechanical advantage means comprising a female taper (34)of gentle slope forces the radial movement of the lock ring (28) as core element sections (18 and 20) are moved together without buckling the wire elements (22) of the core element sections (18, 20).
