Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, in the energy guide chain as in Patent Document 1, since the side plate and the connecting element are formed separately, there is a problem that the burden of manufacturing parts and the burden of assembly work are heavy.
[0007] In addition, in the energy guide chain as in Patent Document 1, since the side plates and the connecting elements are formed separately, there is a troublesome problem of time-consuming maintenance in disconnecting and connecting the side plates.
[0008] In addition, in the energy guide chain of Patent Document 1, the side plates are connected to each other by fitting connecting elements separate from the side plates between the side plates, so there is a problem that the bending action between the links is repeated. , and the offset gradually occurs between the side plate and the connecting member, and there is a fear that the chain will be disassembled and damaged due to the disengagement of the connection portion of such a side plate.
[0009] On the other hand, in the cable-like protective guide guide like Patent Document 2, the connecting rod formed protrudingly outside the side edge of the side plate is also used as a bending portion that flexibly connects the link bodies to each other. The rod is configured to support the load on the side plates when the joint side plates are restrained from bending together, so the connecting rod may be damaged and the life of the guide will be shortened
That is, in the protection guide guide of Patent Document 2, there is a problem that the life of the guide is shortened due to the damage of the bending portion formed by the connecting rod due to the load received when the bending is restricted.
[0010] In addition, in the protection guide guide of Patent Document 2, since the connecting rods between the side plates and the connecting grooves are fitted to connect the side plates to each other, there is a problem that due to repeated bending operations between the link bodies, the The connecting rod between the side plates and the connecting groove gradually deviate, and the guide may be disassembled and damaged due to the disengagement of the connecting portion of the side plates.

Abstract

A cable or the like protection and guide device is provided in which inadvertent disconnection in a coupling portion of a side plate due to the repetition of flexional movement is avoided. A load, which is liable to occur in a flexion portion during restriction of flexional movements, is avoided, whereby excellent endurance can be obtained. Maintenance at the coupling of the side plates is easy. A cable or the like protection and guide device ( 100 ) is disclosed in which right and left spaced side plates ( 110, 110 ) are each integrally formed by a front side plate portion ( 111 ) connected to a precedent side plate ( 110 ), a rear side plate portion ( 111 ) connected to a subsequent side plate ( 110 ') and a flexible coupling portion ( 113 ) intervened between said front side plate portion ( 111 ) and said rear side plate portion ( 112 ). Snap-fit mechanisms Sa and Sb, which connect the side plates to each other are provided between a rear side plate portion ( 112 ) of the precedent side plate ( 110 ) and a front side plate portion ( 111 ') of a side plate ( 110 ) subsequently connected to the rear side plate portion ( 112 ).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a cable-type protection and guide device, and more particularly to a cable-type protection and guide device suitable for accommodating cables or energy for supplying electric power or compressed air to movable parts of industrial machinery. Cables such as hoses can be safely and reliably guided and protected even during the movement of the movable part. Background technique [0002] As a conventional cable-type protection and guide device, an energy guide chain that connects side plates with a connecting element separate from the side plates is disclosed (see, for example, Patent Document 1). [0003] In addition, as a conventional cable-type protection guide device, a cable-type protection guide guide that connects side plates to each other by fitting a connecting rod and a connecting groove integrally formed on each side plate between the side plates is also disclosed. (see, for example, Patent Document 2). [0004]...
