Abstract
An Albarran and a pull wire carrier are particularly efficiently usable as well as producible and reconditionable. The pull wire carrier for an Albarran includes a through-bore for a tubular shaft. This pull wire carrier can be mounted in a drive body of the Albarran, pull wires for the actuation of a lever of the Albarran being braceable on the pull wire carrier. This pull wire carrier is characterized by a receptacle into which a cover element can be placed, the cover element being releasably connectable to the pull wire carrier. The at least one pull wire is fixable between the pull wire carrier and the cover element.

A pull wire carrier for an Albarran, the pull wire carrier comprising a through-bore and a cover element, the pull wire carrier being configured to be mountable in a drive body of the Albarran and holding at least one pull wire configured for actuation of a lever of the Albarran, the pull wire carrier further comprising a receptacle into which the cover element is configured to be placed, the cover element being releasably connectable to the pull wire carrier and the at least one pull wire, the at least one pull wire being fixable between the cover element and a receptacle side of the receptacle of the pull wire carrier,
- wherein the cover element is inserted into the receptacle in a direction parallel to a longitudinal direction of the receptacle and parallel to at least a portion of the at least one pull wire,
- wherein the cover element is arranged in the receptacle with a predetermined pressure,
- wherein the cover element is configured to be screwed with a defined torque against the receptacle side of the receptacle of the pull wire carrier, and
- wherein a proximal end of the at least one pull wire is configured to be disposed against the receptacle side of the receptacle of the pull wire carrier and can be clamped between the receptacle side of the receptacle of the pull wire carrier and the cover element, so that a friction clutch of the pull wire is formed between the receptacle side and the cover element.
