Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connecting link for an energy guiding chain, which is constructed from essentially U-shaped chain links, each with two side parts and a connecting web, the side parts having link sections to the next chain link.
  • plastic energy chains are known, the links of which have a U-shaped cross section.
  • Such an energy chain is described, for example, in EP-A-0 xxx xxx.
  • a cover part is fastened to each chain link with which it is closed.
  • the cover part on the chain end links is replaced by a specially manufactured connecting part.
  • the connecting part points beyond the chain end link, and bores are provided in this protruding area with which the connecting part can be attached to a fixed point or a movable point.
  • connection part must be at least long enough that access to the connection bores in the connection part is not hindered by the connecting web of the chain link.
  • the connection of the connecting part to the chain link which is otherwise a normal chain link, takes place at the connection points at which the cover part would otherwise be ordinary chain link is attached.
  • Claim 10 relates to an energy chain, which is provided with a connecting link according to the invention.
  • the connecting link of the invention is constructed essentially like the other chain links. Like this, it therefore has side parts with articulation sections which correspond to those of the chain links.
  • the connecting web connecting the side parts is, however, formed in the connecting member as a connecting plate which is so wide in the longitudinal direction of the chain that at least two connecting bores can be arranged one behind the other over this width. Because of the U-shaped cross section of the connecting member, the holes in the connecting plate are accessible from the open side of the "U" at any time. With such a connector there is no need to provide a separate connector, as is required in the prior art.
  • connection plate in the connection element of the invention is preferably designed such that it extends at most over the length of the side parts.
  • the connecting plate is preferably designed such that two spaced-apart connecting bores of 3.2 mm in diameter can be arranged one behind the other in the chain direction. Alternatively, it is preferred that the connection bores are formed by a corresponding elongated hole.
  • the side parts opposite the connecting plate can be connected with an at least partially detachable cover flap.
  • the cover plate is the same that can also be used for normal chain links.
  • the connecting link offers the same connection options to other chain links as a normal chain link.
  • one and the same chain end link can be attached to both ends of an energy chain.
  • the chain end link can be attached to the respective end in two orientations. This means that the connecting plate of the connecting link is either on the same side as the connecting web of a normal chain link or is opposite it.
  • the connecting link is formed in one piece as a plastic injection molded part, as is also preferably the case with normal chain links.
  • the cover flap is also a plastic injection molded part.
  • the connector can thus be made of a uniform material. This is an advantage over the prior art, in which the connector is usually made of a different material than a chain link.
  • Figure 1 shows an embodiment of a connector of the invention.
  • FIG. 2 shows the possible uses of the connecting links shown in FIG. 1 on an energy supply chain.
  • Fig. La shows an embodiment of a connector of the invention from a top
  • Fig. Lb shows such a connector from the bottom
  • the connector 1 has a U-shaped cross section.
  • the legs of the U are each formed by side parts 4a and 4b.
  • the bottom of the U is formed by a connecting plate 6 which connects the side parts 4a, 4b.
  • the side parts 4a, 4b are essentially mirror-symmetrical with respect to the U-shape.
  • the side parts 4a, 4b have articulation sections 5a, 5d with which the connecting member can be articulated at one end of an energy chain.
  • the side parts 4a, 4b have further articulation sections 5b, 5c with which the connecting member can be articulated at the other end of an energy chain.
  • the side parts 4a, 4b furthermore each have articulation parts 9a, 9b on a side opposite the connecting plate 6, to which a cover flap (not shown in FIG. 1) can be attached.
  • the connecting plate 6 connecting the side parts 4a, 4b is provided with bores 7a, 7b which are arranged in the longitudinal direction of the chain. In the exemplary embodiment shown, two further bores are additionally provided in a transverse direction.
  • the energy chains are each composed of chain links 2.
  • the chain links 2 each have a connecting web 3, which connects side parts 4a ', 4b'.
  • the side parts 4a ', 4b' correspond essentially in their articulation structure to the side parts 4a, 4b of the connecting element. This is illustrated in FIG. 2 by the particularly bordered areas 5a ', 5b', 5c ', 5d'.
  • FIG. 2 shows how a connecting link 1 of the invention can be articulated on an energy chain.
  • the connecting link can be attached in two orientations at each end of the energy supply chain.
  • the connecting plate 6 is either on the same side as the connecting webs 3 of the energy supply chain, or alternatively the connecting member 1 can be articulated so that the connecting plate 6 is on the side opposite the connecting webs.
  • the connecting plate is then essentially aligned with the cover plates 8 of the energy chain.
  • Cover plates 8 can also be attached to the articulation parts 9a, 9b of the connecting link 1, preferably the same cover plates 8 that are also used for normal chain links 2 are suitable.
  • connection plate 6 allows the connection element 1 to be securely attached to a fixed point or a movable point and by using appropriately designed connections. Steering sections 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d on the connecting member 1 also ensure a secure connection to the energy chain.
  • the connection bores 7a, 7b in the connection plate 6 are easily accessible because of the U-shape of the connection element.
  • the connecting part 1 can be closed with a cover flap in order to protect the power lines to be guided also in the area of the connecting link from damage. In the manufacture of a connecting member, there is no need to make holes 7a, 7b so that the user of the energy supply chain can make such holes according to his own requirements.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un élément de raccordement (1) pour chaîne conductrice d'énergie. Un maillon (2) d'une chaîne conductrice d'énergie de ce type se présente sensiblement en U, avec deux parties latérales (4a, 4b) et une entretoise de raccordement (3) reliant les parties latérales. Ces dernières comportent chacune des sections articulées grâce auxquelles le maillon est relié de manière articulée au maillon suivant. L'entretoise de raccordement de l'élément de raccordement (1) se présente sous forme de plaque de raccordement (6). Les sections articulées correspondent à celles d'un maillon normal. Au moins deux alésages (7a, 7b) peuvent être pratiqués l'un à la suite de l'autre dans la plaque de raccordement (6), dans le sens longitudinal de la chaîne. L'élément de raccordement (1) peut être utilisé à l'une ou l'autre extrémité de la chaîne conductrice d'énergie, orienté dans l'un ou l'autre de deux sens.
