Unsheathed cable activated damper control system
DCFirst Claim
1. An unsheathed cable activated damper control system for an air processing system adjusted by a torque inducing tool, the air processing system having a damper controlled by a damper regulator, the unsheathed cable activated damper control system comprising:
- a first cable bracket having a first cable bracket passage therethrough;
means for mounting said first cable bracket with respect to the air processing system;
an unsheathed flexible torque transmitting cable having a first cable end and a second cable end,said unsheathed flexible torque transmitting cable passing through said first cable bracket passage;
means for coupling said first cable end to the torque inducing tool;
means for limiting axial motion of said unsheathed flexible torque transmitting cable with respect to said first cable bracket; and
means for grippably engaging said second cable end engaged with the damper regulator of the air processing system.

Abstract
A damper control system which employs an unsheathed cable to transmit torque from a torque inducing tool to a damper regulator for regulating a damper of an air processing system. The damper control system has a first cable bracket with a first bracket passage through which the unsheathed cable passes. The first cable bracket is designed to be affixed to a surface accessible to the torque inducing tool. Longitudinal motion of the unsheathed cable with respect to the first cable bracket is limited by a pair of first bracket clips attached to the unsheathed cable and positioned such that the first bracket passage is interposed therebetween. The unsheathed cable is provided with a first cable end which can be engaged by the torque inducing tool and a second cable end which is either permanently affixed to or can be maintained slidable engaged with the damper regulator. Such engagement can be maintained by a set screw in the damper regulator or by a second cable bracket which is fixed with respect to the damper regulator. The second cable bracket has a second bracket passage through which the unsheathed cable passes and a second bracket clip positioned on the unsheathed cable between the second cable end and the second bracket passage.
