  • Patent number: 8453424
    Abstract: The invention relates to a chain link (10) for an energy guiding chain, comprising two lateral links (12, 14) arranged at a distance from each other and parallel to each other, and at least one frame section (16) connecting the lateral links (12, 14) together. Each lateral link (12, 14) carries an abutment device (20) in a first end region (18), that can be connected to the lateral link (12, 14) in a detachable and fixed manner, and comprises a disk (22) and at least one abutment element projecting from a first surface (24) of the disk (22). Each lateral link (12, 14) comprises, in its second end region (28), a number of recesses (32), corresponding to the number of abutment elements (26), for receiving the abutment elements (26) of a chain link in the longitudinal direction of the chain and for defining the pivoting angle between the successive chain links.

  • Patent number: 8028610
    Abstract: A cutting link (1) for a saw chain includes a base body (2) and a cutting tooth (3) mounted thereon and made of hard metal. The base body (2) has rivet openings (4) and a recess (6) is formed in the base body (2) for chip removal with the recess (6) being ahead of the cutting tooth (3) in running direction. A connecting leg (8) of the cutting tooth (3) is brought into surface contact laterally of the base body (2) and the cutting tooth (3) is firmly bonded to the base body (2) by brazing. The connecting leg (8) extends so far downwardly that a lower edge (13) thereof lies lower than the recess (6). The connecting leg (8) has an upwardly raised edge (15) in its rearward region opposite the neighboring rivet opening (4).

  • Patent number: 7735309
    Abstract: Line routing arrangement (10) having a mount (12) for holding at least one line which is designed to be flexible or articulated and can be folded such that a first section (24) can be placed over a second section (26), which is connected to it by a curved section (28), with at least one row (32) of magnets (34) which extends with its longitudinal direction running from a first mount end (14) to a second mount end (16) being arranged on a side (30) of the mount (12) which forms the lower face of the first section (24) and the upper face of the second section (26), such that, when the mount (12) is folded, magnet poles on the first section (24) are opposite magnet poles with the same name on the second section (26).
