🧰 What It Is
In power tools like the INGCO RH150028, a Teleflex refers to a flexible drive cable assembly—a slender, flexible metal cable wrapped in a protective outer sheath. It transmits rotational or linear motion between two parts that are not aligned rigidly.
Unlike a solid shaft, the Teleflex cable can curve or bend slightly, allowing motion to be transferred through tight spaces, around structures inside the tool, or between moving assemblies.
⚙️ Technical Function
The SP‑14 Teleflex cable assembly serves one or more of these purposes inside the rotary hammer:
1. Flexible Motion Transmission
‑ Transfers motion (rotation or push/pull force) between components that cannot be connected by a straight rigid shaft.
‑ Useful where internal geometry or housing shape requires flexibility.
2. Mode or Function Linkage
‑ Often used to link a mode selector knob or switch to an internal part that engages different functions (e.g., drill only, hammer only, or combination).
‑ When the user turns a selector externally, the Teleflex cable transmits that movement internally to change the tool’s configuration.
3. Control Cable
‑ May serve as the mechanical connection between a control input (knob, slider, or lever) and an internal mechanism such as a selector fork, brake, or clutch.
4. Vibration Isolation
‑ By being flexible, it helps isolate vibration between moving mechanical assemblies rather than transmitting rigid shocks.
