Chain Joints for Links

Abstract

A chain joint for link chains, having a main body in the form of an oval chain link with two mutually parallel longitudinal legs which are connected to one another at their ends via a rounded link portion, one defining a receiving opening for receiving chain links. The receiving opening is bounded at its ends by one longitudinal leg section, wherein, in the longitudinal leg, a threaded bore runs in the longitudinal direction and extends in both longitudinal leg sections. A closure screw engages the threaded bore in both longitudinal leg sections, so that, while maintaining the predefined sizes for outer circumference and link width of the main body, the main body, in the region of its longitudinal legs, includes a profile cross section that is larger than the profile cross section in the region of its rounded link portions.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to a chain joint for a chain link having a body in the form of an oval link with two longitudinal arms parallel to each other and each at its end via a curved loop connected together, wherein one of the longitudinal arms has a break, which is used to form a receiving opening for hooking the oval link into the internal opening of the main body, the receiving opening being defined by each longitudinal arm at its end Defining the boundary, wherein in the longitudinal arm a threaded hole continuing in the longitudinal direction of the longitudinal arm is provided, the threaded hole extending to both longitudinal arms to close the receiving opening, a closing bolt can be screwed into the thread In the screwed-in state, the closure bolt engages with threaded holes in the two longitudinal arms, wherein the dimensions of the outer circumference and ring width of the main body are preset.
