<p>An apparatus (30) for establishing directional changes in a flexible cable (32) comprising a saddle (40) having a first track (44) therealong and a second track (58) oriented transversely to the first track (44), the first track (44) and second track (58) are configured to receive corresponding portions of the cable (32) therein, the apparatus characterized in that an anvil (46) having a directional changing leading edge (50) is disposed above the first track (44) the leading edge (50) being formed such that folding the cable (32) thereover positions the cable in the second track (58) and established a fold (82) in the cable (32) having a radius greater than the critical radius of the cable (32). <IMAGE></p> |
