Abstract

This invention provides an apparatus for transmitting a driving force between two components. The apparatus utilizes a cover rotatably mounted in a housing such that, as a result of engagement between the cover and a first component, a rotation of the cover corresponds to a displacement of such first component. The first component drives a second component by means of an actuator.
