In a foldable device for an automobile recline seat, a back rest reclining member is provided to lock the back rest and to release the back rest to rotate forward under the function of the back rest urging member. A seat lock-up cable is connected at one end to the seat locking member and the other end to an actuator member. A back rest lock-up cable is connected at one end to the back rest reclining member and the other end to the actuator member, the actuator member including an actuator lever and an auxiliary lever. A timing mechanism is provided to sequentially actuate the actuator lever and the auxiliary lever so as to pull the back rest lock-up cable and the seat lock-up cable in turn, releasing the back rest reclining member and the seat locking member respectively to rotate the back rest forward by the back rest reclining member and rotating the seat forward around the front arm of the frame by an action of the urging member.

The present invention provides a method for predicting a routing arrangement for control cable without preparing experimental control cables. In the method according to the present invention, characteristics of a control cable to be laid are obtained (S1, S2, and S3). The characteristics of the control cable can be obtained by subjecting a test piece of control cable to a known test (tensile test). Next, a length of the control cable and a condition for connecting the control cable are provided as conditions for a computation (S4 and S5). Then, the given length of the cable, the given condition for connecting the cable, and the obtained characteristic of the control cable are used for a computation model, which was formed by dividing the control cable into a plurality of elements, in order to perform a finite element method, and, thus, a routing arrangement is calculated (S7).

A terminal supporting apparatus 10 supports at least one of two ends of a control cable having an inner cable and an outer cable. The terminal supporting apparatus 10 includes: a hub 12 attached to an end of the outer cable, and having a flange on an outer periphery thereof; a cushion member 14 disposed to surround the outer periphery of the hub, and being in contact with the flange at both a front surface and a rear surface of the flange; and a housing 17 having a housing part that houses the cushion member. When an angle formed between an axis of the housing part and an axis of the hub is varied in a range of 0.0° to 6.0°, a diagonal static spring constant of the cushion member in an axial direction thereof may be in a range of 350 to 600 N/mm.

A push-pull control cable device for automatically setting same in standby or a cancel mode. The device has an outer casing tube on which a tubular cap has an end fixed stationary relative thereto. An inner cable extends longitudinally guided through the tubular cap and into the device's outer casing tube for transmission of a desired control force. A member slidable axially in the tubular casing is disposed adjacent an opposite end thereof and has a reduced diameter tubular portion extending axially from the tubular cap. Inner cable extends through an opening in the slidable member and has terminal end extending into the tubular portion. A terminal block fixed to the terminal end is slidable in the tubular portion. An intermediate block slidable in the tubular cap is fixed to the inner cable spaced axially from the slidable member. A coil spring between intermediate block and the slidable member applies in an extended state a biasing force effectively causing the terminal block to bear against the slidable member in the absence of a force in the device restraining the inner cable from travel longitudinally toward the device so that the device assumes an operational standby mode for application of a push-pull control force by the depression of the slidable element or pulling it in a direction away from the device.

In a cable joint structure, a first casing has a first rail member. A first end portion has a lug portion directed opposite to the first rail, and connected to one end of a first cable so that the first end portion moves along the first rail member. A second casing has a second rail member. A second end portion has a recess portion into which the lug portion interfits from a direction opposite to the second rail member, and connected to one end of a second cable so that the second end portion moves along the second rail member. A lock member is provided to unite the first casing to the second casing with the first rail member located to face the second rail member.

A cable-operated device (50) suitable for use with a parking brake (10) includes a cable (54) having first end coupled to a lever (52) of a brake mechanism. A supporting member (58) supports at least one longitudinal portion of the cable (54). One end of a coil spring (56) is affixed to the lever (52) and the other end may be affixed to the supporting member (58) or a bracket (81). The cable (54) extends through at least a portion of the coil spring (56). One end of a liner (61) is affixed to the supporting member (58) and the liner (61) surrounds at least a bent portion of the coil spring (56) that is supported on a guide surface (58b).

Vehicle seats are provided with a switching mechanism for switching a seat condition that is reliably actuated. Vehicle seat 10 may include input side switching mechanism 50 that receives an input of a manipulating force, and output side switching mechanism 70 that is actuated in synchronization with input side switching mechanism 50. Seat 10 may additionally include a control cable that is connected to input side switching mechanism 50 and output side switching mechanism 70 and that transmits the input of the manipulating force, which input side switching mechanism 50 receives, to output side switching mechanism 70. The control cable may include a strand type outer casing and an inner cable, which is movably inserted within the outer casing. In vehicle seat 10, because the outer casing of the control cable is strand type, shrinkage of the outer casing is prevented, which reduces stroke length loss. Accordingly, the manipulating force that is applied to input side switching mechanism 50 is transmitted to output side switching mechanism 70 while the stroke length loss is minimized. Thus, actuation of output side switching mechanism 70 is ensured.

A cable 20 is provided with a cable body 24a, a metal fitting 22a fixed to at least one end of the cable body, and a covering coat 32a covering at least a portion not covered by a metal fitting on a surface of the cable body. The cable body 24a includes a swelling part 30a on an end at a side on which the metal fitting is fixed, and the swelling part 30a swells in a direction orthogonal to an axis of the cable. The metal fitting 22a surrounds a periphery of the swelling part of the cable body. A tip of the covering coat at the side on which the metal fitting is fixed is located in the metal fitting. The space “a” is formed between the swelling part of the cable body and the tip of the covering coat.

In a cable-operated device, one end of a coil spring 56 is fixed to a brake lever and another end of the coil spring 56 is fixed to a supporting member. At least one of the brake lever and the supporting member has a guide surface 58b making contact with the coil spring 56 from a lateral direction with respect to the coil spring 56. One end portion of the coil spring 56 has a first pitch portion 56b wound with a first pitch, a second pitch portion 56a wound with a second pitch which is smaller than the first pitch, and a third pitch portion 56c wound with a third pitch which is larger than the second pitch. When a primary load is applied to the coil spring 56, a length of the coil spring 56 is 80 to 120 mm, adjacent windings of the first pitch portion are separated from each other, adjacent windings of the second pitch portion are in contact with each other, and the second pitch portion makes contact with a tip end of the guide surface 58b.
