Anti-skid chain with rim protection covering

a technology of anti-skid chain and protective cover, which is applied in the direction of non-skid devices, tyre parts, tread bands/patterns, etc., can solve the problems of not ensuring the connection of the track cross on the side cable, and additional strain on the track cross as well, so as to reduce the cross section and reduce the manufacturing cost. , the effect of preventing the cracking of the wheel rim is particularly good

Benefits of technology

"The invention is an anti-skid chain for a tire that has hooks that connect to track crosses and a rim protection covering. The chain is designed to securely attach the tire to the track and provide efficient protection for the rim. The rim protection covering can be easily mounted and dismounted with a snap-action connection or a hinge-like joint. The chain is also designed to prevent scratching of the wheel rim and can be easily connected to a tension cable on the opposite tire side. The invention improves the function and manipulation of the anti-skid chain."

Problems solved by technology

A disadvantage of this known embodiment is above all that in an anti-skid chain, in which the tension cable is arranged on the inner side of the tire and only a side cable is provided on the outer side of the tire, no good connection of the track cross on the side cable is ensured.
This will cause additional strain to the track cross as well as to the rim protection covering itself during operation of the anti-skid chain, and compensatory movements of the track cross will entail a corresponding movement of the device across the tire side.

Embodiment Construction

[0022]According to FIG. 1, an anti-skid chain 1 according to the invention has a continuous chain mesh with track crosses 2 and a side cable 10 located on a outer side of the tire 2 when mounted. In this application, a side cable is understood as side chain that is not used as a tension cable and which is preferable realized as a loop.

[0023]The track crosses 2 are joined to the side cable 10 by hooks 5 each hung into at least one chain link 4 of the side cable 10 (FIG. 2). A rim protection covering 11 surrounding the hook 5 and the at least one chain link 4 may be provided for each hook 5. In order to make mounting and dismantling easier, at least one of the rim protection coverings 11 can be particularly identified, for example by a particular coloring. So, in the drawing according to FIG. 1 a rim protection covering 12 is particularly identified by color (drawn dotted). An exact position of the chain on the wheel can be indicated by identification of the rim protection covering 12...

Abstract

In an anti-skid chain with a continuous chain mesh with track crosses and a side cable fitting on an (outer) tire side when mounted, the track crosses are connected to the side cable by hooks which are hooked into at least one chain link of the side cable, wherein each hook is provided with a rim protection covering surrounding the hook and the at least one chain ink. The rim protection coverings surround the respective chain links of the side cable, while a part of the hook that provides a connection with the track crosses is protruding from the rim protection covering.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to an anti-skid chain with a continuous chain mesh with track crosses and a side cable which, when mounted, is located on a side of a tire (preferably the outer tire side), wherein the track crosses are connected to the side cable by hooks, wherein each hook is provided with a rim protection covering surrounding the hook.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]AT 500295 B1 discloses an anti-skid chain for being mounted onto a vehicle tire on a wheel rim, which is, on the parts of the chain that may come into contact with the wheel rim, provided with a rim protection element that forms a bracket for a tension cable present on the outer side of the tire. The known rim protection elements have brackets through which the tension cable can be pulled with the aim of tensioning. A disadvantage of this known embodiment is above all that in an anti-skid chain, in which the tension cable is arranged on the inner side of the tire and only a si...
