Method for making a remote control assembly with vibration dampener

摘要

Method for making a motion transmitting remote control assembly of the type for transmitting motion in a curved path by a flexible motion transmitting core element including a flexible motion transmitting core element and a flexible conduit. An end fitting is disposed about the end portion of the conduit for supporting the conduit and core element with the core element extending from the end fitting. The assembly also includes a support housing for supporting the end fitting and the conduit on a support structure. The assembly is characterized by a resilient vibration dampener disposed between the support housing and the end fitting for providing noise and vibration isolation therebetween. A mold assembly and a method are also disclosed for making the motion transmitting remote control assembly including the steps of; inserting the end portion of the conduit into a cavity of a first mold and injecting organic polymeric material into the cavity for molding the end fitting about the conduit, inserting the end fitting into a cavity of a second mold and injecting a vibration dampening material into the mold for molding a vibration dampener about the end fitting, and placing the vibration dampener into a cavity of a third mold and injecting an organic polymeric material for molding a support housing about the vibration dampener.
