DEVICE IN A VEHICLE LOCK

摘要

The present invention relates to a device for the transmission of unlocking force from a lock cylinder (1) arranged in a lock cylinder casing (3) to an operating arm (8) in a locking mechanism (2), especially in a vehicle lock. The device is characterised in that a first end (5a) of a cable sheath (5) is fixed to the lock cylinder casing (3) adjacent to the lock cylinder (1). A second end (5b) of the cable sheath (5) is fixed adjacent to the operating arm (8) of the locking mechanism (2). A first end (6a) of a cable (6) arranged in the cable sheath (5) is operatively connected to the lock cylinder (1), the first end (6a) of the cable being designed, when duly acted upon by the lock cylinder (1) for unlocking the door, to be pushed into the cable sheath (5), thereby causing a second free end (6b) of the cable to be pushed out of the other end of the cable sheath (5) and brought into engagement with the operating arm (8), and by way of the latter transmitting to the locking mechanism (2) the requisite force/movement needed to bring the locking mechanism from a locked position (X) into an unlocked position (Y).
