Throttle cable retainer

摘要

In at least some implementations, an apparatus includes a throttle valve rotatable between an first position and a second position, a connection member coupled to the throttle valve and a wire retainer coupled to the connection member. The connection member is adapted to be coupled to a wire that controls rotation of the throttle valve, and the wire retainer is adapted to overlie the wire and inhibit unintended decoupling of the wire from the connection member.

主权项

1. An apparatus, comprising:
a throttle valve rotatable about an axis between a first position and a second position; a wire with an end and an enlarged fitting attached to the wire adjacent the end of the wire for connecting the wire to the throttle valve; a connector body coupled to the throttle valve at a location spaced from the axis of rotation, the body having a peripheral sidewall and an end, a slot opening through the sidewall and the end and having a first portion configured to receive the wire therein and an enlarged second portion with a shoulder and configured to receive the enlarged fitting therein to be engagable with the shoulder; and a clip carried by the connector body and at least partially overlapping the enlarged fitting and retaining the enlarged fitting in the enlarged portion of the slot.
