<p>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).</p> |
