Abstract

A toothed cable includes a cable body, and a cap provided at a tip of the cable body. The cap includes a conical tip portion, and a cylindrical body portion provided on a side of a base end of the tip portion, when the toothed cable moves in a direction from a side of the cap toward a side of the cable body in a curved guiding path of a guide member, the cap moves so as to be in sliding contact with an outer wall portion, and the toothed cable is configured such that an end region of the cable body, which end region is on the side of the cap, contacts an inner wall portion of the guide member when the cap comes into sliding contact with an edge of a concave portion of the guide member to limit an angle θ at which the cap swings.
