Abstract

A cable pull for transmitting a tensile and/or pressure force to a pivot point is presented. The cable pull has a counter bearing, a tie rod, an adjustment unit and a locking element. The counter bearing is designed to introduce a counter bearing into a casing of the cable pull, counter to the tensile and/or pressure force. The tie rod is axially supported in the counter bearing, and coupled to a wire core of the cable pull. The tie rod has a molded part on an end protruding out of the counter bearing, having a first component of a toothing. The adjustment element is designed to adjust a length of the cable pull between the counter bearing and the pivot point. The adjustment element has a guide for the molded part. The molded part can move axially in the guide, and is disposed such that it is guided transverse thereto. The locking element is designed to fix the molded part in place in the adjustment unit. The locking element is disposed in a recess in the adjustment unit oriented transverse to the guide, and can move between a locking position and an adjustment position. The locking element has a second component of the toothing, which is designed to engage in the first component i…
