Japanese Patent JP2702627
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A steering helm (11) for a boat (13) having a motion-transmitting core element assembly (10) connected between the steering helm (11) of a boat (13) and a steering system (15). The motion-transmitting core element assembly (10) has a motion-transmitting core element (12) extending through a conduit (14) to the steering system (15). The conduit (14) is attached to the steering helm (28) via a coupler (16). The coupler (16) comprises a female housing (28) and a male coupler (22). The male coupler (22) is attached to the flexible conduit (14) and is substantially cylindrical with an outer diameter smaller than the first inner diameter of female housing (28). The male coupler (22) has a leading chamfered surface (24) and a relief (26) disposed adjacent to the leading chamfered surface (24). The female housing (28) has a locking assembly (30) comprising a ring (32) and a spring (34). The ring (32) has an inner chamfered surface (40) and a flat side surface (38) wherein the flat side surface (38) abuts the relief (26) of the male coupler (22) when the male coupler (22) is fully inserted into the female housing (28). The spring (34) biases the ring (32) off-axis, thus locking the male coupler (22) in place. A hole (42) in the female housing (28) receives a tool to force the ring (32) on-axis thereby unlocking the male coupler (22).
