Abstract:
1. An apparatus for providing reciprocating lateral displacement of a cruise control cable associated with an automotive engine having a lift lug, said apparatus comprising: a) a motor operable by an automotive electrical source of 9 to 12 volts D.C. and having a front extremity from which an output shaft is forwardly emergent upon a straight axis, b) means for controlling the rotational speed of said output shaft, c) a gear box associated with said front extremity and housing gears which cause the axial rotation of said output shaft to rotate a secondary shaft upon an axis orthogonally disposed to the axis of said output shaft, d) a disc of substantially circular perimeter secured to said secondary shaft and rotatably positioned exteriorly of said gear box, and e) an activation arm having a distal extremity that engages said cruise control cable, and a proximal extremity pivotably attached to said disc adjacent its perimeter, whereby f) rotational movement of said disc produces reciprocating linear movement of said distal extremity with consequent reciprocating displacement of said cruise control cable.
