29.685—Control system details.
(a)
Each detail of each control system must be designed to prevent jamming, chafing, and interference from cargo, passengers, loose objects, or the freezing of moisture.
(b)
There must be means in the cockpit to prevent the entry of foreign objects into places where they would jam the system.
(2)
The design of cable systems must prevent any hazardous change in cable tension throughout the range of travel under any operating conditions and temperature variations.
(4)
Pulley kinds and sizes must correspond to the cables with which they are used. The pulley-cable combinations and strength values specified in MIL-HDBK-5 must be used unless they are inapplicable.
(6)
Pulleys must lie close enough to the plane passing through the cable to prevent the cable from rubbing against the pulley flange.
(8)
No clevis pin subject to load or motion and retained only by cotter pins may be used in the control system.
(9)
Turnbuckles attached to parts having angular motion must be installed to prevent binding throughout the range of travel.
(e)
Control system joints subject to angular motion must incorporate the following special factors with respect to the ultimate bearing strength of the softest material used as a bearing:
(f)
For control system joints, the manufacturer's static, non-Brinell rating of ball and roller bearings may not be exceeded.
