Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, if at the same time a certain damping is thereby achieved in each case, an excess remains of a defined residual velocity at which the stop surfaces suddenly collide with each other with the formation of unwanted noises.

Embodiment Construction

[0052] (In the specification, all concepts used to describe directionality such as up, down, front, back, right, and left refer to the directions shown in the corresponding drawings, which may actually be defined differently) figure 1 shows a side view of an energy guide chain 1 with the chain links 2 shown in FIGS. In this case, all pivot axes s are arranged in the energy guide chain 1 in the transverse direction q and thus parallel to one another. In this case, the energy guide chain 1 is generally displaceable with two straight segments 11 being formed by a deflection segment 12 , wherein the chain links 2 are each opposite each other when transitioning from a straight segment 11 to the deflection segment 12 pivot.

[0053] The chain links 2 each have two lateral parts 3 which, in the assembled state inserted into the energy guide chain, form a left-hand and a right-hand tongue chain 4 . In this case, in this embodiment of the energy guide chain 1 , the two lateral parts ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a side part (3) for a chain link (2) of an energy chain (1) designed to guide supply lines. For the pivotable arrangement of adjacent chain links (2), the side part (3) has anoverlap region (31, 32) at each end, which is provided with corresponding stop surfaces (312, 322) for limiting the pivoting and with a pivot axis (s), i.e. a first overlap region (31) having first stop surfaces (312) and a second overlap region (32) having second stop surfaces (322). In order to damp the braking of the pivoting motion, a damping element in the form of a spring lip (6) that can be resiliently deformed about a bending axis (b) parallel to the pivot axis (s) is arranged in front of at least each first stop surface (312). For improved damping, the spring lip (6) according to theinvention has an end region (61), which is axial with respect to the bending axis (b) of the spring lip, for the coupling in of the kinetic energy that is transferred to said spring lip (6) by meansof the second stop surface (322) of the second overlap region (32) of the adjacent chain link (2), which second stop surface corresponds with the first stop surface (312) in the installation position.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a lateral part for designing chain links of an energy guide chain for guiding supply lines, wherein adjacent chain links are pivotally connected relative to each other about a pivot axis, wherein for adjacent The pivotable arrangement of the chain links, the lateral parts on the end sides respectively have overlapping areas provided with corresponding stop surfaces and pivot axes in order to limit the pivoting, that is to say the first intersection with the first stop surface and a second overlapping area with a second stop surface, and, in order to damp the braking of the pivotal movement, a damping element is arranged upstream of at least each first stop surface, which is arranged around a parallel In the form of a spring lip that deforms elastically with respect to the bending axis of the pivot axis. The invention also relates to a chain link with two such lateral parts and an energy guide chain with such a chain link. Back...
