Description
[0001] The present invention relates to an elastic damping element for damping vibrations of a line, in particular a fluid-carrying line or an electrical line.
[0002] In a wide variety of applications, cables, particularly fluid-carrying cables or electrical cables, are used in confined spaces or connected to other components. To prevent vibrations occurring in the installation space from being transmitted to corresponding cables within the installation space and potentially impairing the mechanical and / or electrical properties of the cables, damping elements can be attached to the cables. However, such damping elements are often complex to manufacture and install, and often cannot be attached to the cables sufficiently firmly.
[0003] EP 1 099 899 A2 describes a hose for supporting pipelines. This hose is made of solid material and consists of two components of different hardnesses.
[0004] The document DE 20 2005 008 570 U1 describes a fastening device for a cable.
[0005] The document DE 20 2017 100 299 U1 describes a holding device for holding a cable.
[0006] It is the object underlying the invention to provide an elastic damping element for damping vibrations of a line, which has advantageous damping properties and can be effectively attached to the line.
[0007] This object is achieved by the subject matter having the features according to the independent claims. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are the subject of the figures, the description, and the dependent claims.
[0008] According to a first aspect of the invention, the object is achieved by an elastic damping element for damping vibrations of a line, with an elastic sleeve ring for enclosing the line, wherein the elastic sleeve ring has an inner wall facing the line, which inner wall encloses a sleeve ring interior for receiving the line, wherein a plurality of radially extending recesses are formed in the inner wall, wherein between each two recesses formed next to one another in the inner wall, a curved and tapered web is formed in the direction of the sleeve ring interior.
[0009] This achieves the technical advantage that the curved and tapered webs can exert a particularly effective clamping effect on the cable accommodated in the sleeve ring interior, so that a particularly effective fixation of the cable is achieved by the elastic damping element.
[0010] The curved and tapered shape of the webs also reduces the installation forces compared to conventional damping elements. Furthermore, the rotational forces are equivalent, as the curved and tapered shape of the webs wedges them together when the elastic damping element rotates around the cable.
[0011] Thus, effective support of the cable within the elastic damping element can be ensured and effective damping of vibrations of the cable can be achieved.
[0012] The curved and tapered webs can deform radially outward during the insertion of the cable into the elastic damping element. Due to the elastic properties of the curved and tapered webs, the elastic webs press against an outer surface of the enclosed cable, enabling effective fastening of the cable in the elastic damping element.
[0013] The curved, tapered webs thus ensure that the elastic damping element and the cable are effectively decoupled from vibration. Depending on the diameter of the cable enclosed by the elastic damping element, the curved, tapered webs can be radially deformed to varying degrees. This ensures that different cables with different diameters can be enclosed by the elastic damping element and effectively secured by the elastic webs. At the same time, effective damping of vibrations from cables with different diameters is ensured.
[0014] In particular, the line comprises a fluid-carrying line, in particular a fluid-carrying line in a vehicle, in particular in the form of hoses, pipes and the like, such as fuel lines, hydraulic fluid lines or charge air lines, to ensure effective operation of the vehicle. During operation of the vehicle, vibrations can arise from moving components, such as the combustion engine. In order to decouple the lines from the engine housing in terms of vibration technology and thus prevent the vibrations from being transmitted to the lines, the elastic damping element ensures that sufficient damping of vibrations is possible.
[0015] In particular, the line comprises an electrical line, in particular a power line or a signal line in an electrical component.
[0016] The elastic sleeve ring of the elastic damping element is shaped as a sleeve ring that is closed in the circumferential direction of the elastic sleeve ring.
[0017] Alternatively, the elastic sleeve ring of the elastic damping element is shaped as a sleeve ring that can be closed in the circumferential direction of the elastic sleeve ring, so that the elastic sleeve ring can be opened here to receive the line, and so that the elastic sleeve ring can then be closed again to fix the line received in the elastic sleeve ring.
[0018] In particular, the elastic damping element is designed as a spacer which spaces the line accommodated in the elastic sleeve ring from other components, such as a housing, in order to prevent the line accommodated in the elastic sleeve ring from coming into contact with the other components, in particular the housing.
[0019] In particular, the line accommodated in the elastic sleeve ring comprises an electrical line, wherein in this case the elastic damping element is designed in particular as a spacer which spaces the electrical line accommodated in the elastic sleeve ring from other electrical lines, so that an effective electrical or electromagnetic decoupling between the corresponding electrical lines is ensured.
[0020] In an advantageous embodiment, the webs are curved in the same circumferential direction.
[0021] This achieves the technical advantage that when the cable is inserted into the sleeve ring interior, the webs spring radially outward in this direction, allowing the cable to be effectively inserted into the sleeve ring interior. The curved and tapered webs then apply a uniform, circumferential force to the outer wall of the cable to ensure effective fixation of the cable in the elastic sleeve ring.
[0022] In an advantageous embodiment, the respective web has a first curved web side wall which faces a first recess of the two recesses formed next to one another in the inner wall, and the respective web has a second curved web side wall which faces a second recess of the two recesses formed next to one another in the inner wall, wherein in particular the first curved web side wall of the respective web is formed as a first concavely curved web side wall, and wherein in particular the second curved web side wall of the respective web is formed as a second convexly curved web side wall.
[0023] This achieves the technical advantage that the first and second curved web side walls effectively delimit the web from the respective recesses, so that the first curved web side wall and the second curved web side wall can effectively rebound when the cable is inserted into the sleeve ring interior.
[0024] In particular, the first curved web side wall and the second curved web side wall are curved in the same direction of curvature.
[0025] In an advantageous embodiment, the respective web extends along a web longitudinal axis which extends parallel to a line longitudinal direction of the line that can be enclosed by the elastic sleeve ring, wherein the first curved web side wall and the second curved web side wall are each curved about a first and second axes of curvature extending parallel to the respective web longitudinal axis, wherein the respective axis of curvature is displaced relative to the respective web longitudinal axis along a circumferential direction of the elastic sleeve ring.
[0026] This provides the technical advantage that the webs can effectively rebound outwards.
[0027] In an advantageous embodiment, a web tip of the web, which is curved and tapered radially in the direction of the sleeve ring interior, is designed to bear against a line accommodated in the sleeve ring interior, wherein the respective web tip is designed in particular to be displaced, at least in sections, radially in the direction of the inner wall by the line lying against the web tip in order to provide a contact force on the line.
[0028] This achieves the technical advantage that the radial displacement of the web tips towards the inner wall creates a spring force in the webs, which is the cause of the contact force that the webs exert on the cable in order to fix the cable.
[0029] In an advantageous embodiment, a radial direction axis of the respective web extends from a center point of a base area of the respective web to a sleeve center axis of the elastic sleeve ring, wherein the respective web has a web center axis which extends from a web tip of the respective web tapering radially in the direction of the sleeve ring interior of the elastic sleeve ring to the center point of the base area of the respective web, and wherein the respective web center axis extends at an angle to the respective radial direction axis.
[0030] This achieves the technical advantage of ensuring an effective curvature of the respective web, which ensures effective rebound of the web when the cable is inserted into the sleeve ring interior.
[0031] In an advantageous embodiment, the elastic sleeve ring has an outer wall facing away from the line, wherein a plurality of radially extending outer webs are formed on the outer wall, which are designed to ensure a spacing from components arranged outside the elastic damping element, wherein the outer webs are arranged in particular next to one another in the circumferential direction of the elastic sleeve ring on the outer wall, and wherein in particular two outer webs arranged next to one another in the circumferential direction on the outer wall are spaced from one another by an outer web recess each.
[0032] This achieves the technical advantage that components arranged outside the elastic damping element can be effectively kept at a distance from the elastic damping element by the outer webs, so that damage to the cable accommodated in the elastic sleeve ring by the components can be excluded.
[0033] In an advantageous embodiment, the respective outer webs each have an outer web upper side facing away from the sleeve ring interior, in particular a straight-shaped outer web upper side, wherein the outer webs each have a first outer web side wall, in particular a curved-shaped first outer web side wall, which faces a first outer web recess of the two outer web recesses, and / or wherein the outer webs each have a second outer web side wall, in particular a curved-shaped second outer web side wall, which faces a second outer web recess of the two outer web recesses.
[0034] This achieves the technical advantage that the outer web upper side ensures effective contact with the components arranged outside the elastic damping element, and that the two outer web side walls, in particular the two curved outer web side walls, can advantageously deform upon contact of the outer web with the component in order to provide advantageous damping.
[0035] In an advantageous embodiment, the elastic sleeve ring has a closure portion for closing the elastic sleeve ring around the line, wherein a barb is formed in particular on a first region of the closure portion, and wherein a receiving opening for receiving the barb is formed in particular on a second region of the closure portion.
[0036] This achieves the technical advantage that the elastic sleeve ring is not shaped as a closed sleeve ring, but as a closable sleeve ring which can be opened to receive the cable and which can then be closed to effectively receive and fix the cable.
[0037] The barbs allow for an advantageous snap-in into the receiving opening, allowing for easy closure of the elastic sleeve ring.
[0038] In an embodiment not falling within the scope of protection of the claims, the elastic sleeve ring has an outer wall facing away from the line, wherein an adhesive element is arranged on the outer wall, which adhesive element is designed to connect the elastic damping element to a further component by means of an adhesive connection.
[0039] This achieves the technical advantage that the adhesive element ensures an effective material connection between the elastic damping element and the other component.
[0040] In an embodiment not falling within the scope of the claims, the adhesive element has an adhesive surface which is covered by a peel-off element detachably connected to the adhesive surface, wherein the peel-off element detachably connected to the adhesive surface is designed to be removed from the adhesive surface in order to expose the adhesive surface for providing the adhesive connection with the further component, wherein the peel-off element in particular has a gripping portion which protrudes from the outer wall.
[0041] This provides the technical advantage that the peel-off element protects the adhesive surface during transport. By peeling off the peel-off element by the user of the elastic damping element, the adhesive surface can be effectively exposed to enable the adhesive bond to the other component.
[0042] According to the invention, the elastic sleeve ring has an outer wall facing away from the line, wherein a fastening element is arranged on the outer wall, which fastening element extends radially from the outer wall and is designed to connect the elastic damping element to an additional component in a pluggable manner.
[0043] This achieves the technical advantage that the fastening element arranged on the outer wall enables an effective plug-in connection for fastening the elastic damping element to the additional component.
[0044] The fastening element is designed, in particular, as a fastening rib, which is formed, in particular, integrally with the outer wall of the elastic damping element. The fastening rib extends on the outer wall, in particular parallel to a sleeve center axis of the elastic sleeve ring.
[0045] Alternatively, the fastening element is designed, in particular, as a fastening pin, which is, in particular, not formed integrally with the outer wall of the elastic damping element. The fastening pin is designed, in particular, as an additional component that is connected to the outer wall of the elastic damping element, for example, by providing a punched hole, in particular a round hole, in the outer wall of the elastic damping element, into which the fastening pin is inserted, in particular by means of a clip connection.
[0046] According to the invention, the fastening element has a fastening shaft which is connected to the outer wall of the elastic sleeve ring and which extends from the outer wall in the direction of the additional component and is designed to be passed through a fastening opening of the additional component, and wherein at least one fastening projection is arranged on the fastening shaft, which is designed to bear against a side of the additional component facing away from the elastic damping element in order to ensure effective fastening of the fastening element to the additional component.
[0047] This achieves the technical advantage of enabling a particularly effective attachment of the elastic damping element to the additional component.
[0048] If the fastening element is designed in particular as a fastening pin, the corresponding fastening opening of the additional component is designed in particular as a round hole through which the fastening shaft of the fastening element designed as a fastening pin can be passed.
[0049] If the fastening element is designed in particular as a fastening rib, the corresponding fastening opening of the additional component is designed in particular as an elongated hole through which the rib-like fastening shaft of the fastening element designed as a fastening rib can be passed.
[0050] According to the invention, the outer wall of the elastic sleeve ring has a contact surface facing the additional component, wherein a contact element, in particular a contact rib and / or a contact ring, is arranged on the contact surface, which contact element is designed to bear against a wall of the additional component facing the elastic sleeve ring.

[0052] According to a second aspect of the invention, the object is achieved by an elastic fastening system with an elastic damping element according to the first aspect and a line which is accommodated in the sleeve ring interior enclosed by the inner wall of the elastic sleeve ring.
[0053] This provides the technical advantage of achieving particularly effective vibration decoupling of the line.
[0054] Embodiments of the invention are illustrated in the drawings and are described in more detail below.
[0055] They show: Fig. 1 shows a side view of an elastic damping element according to a first embodiment not falling within the scope of the claims; Fig. 2 shows a side view of an elastic damping element according to a second embodiment not falling within the scope of the claims; Fig. 3 shows a side view of an elastic damping element according to a third embodiment; Fig. 4 shows a side view of an elastic damping element according to a fourth embodiment not falling within the scope of the claims in a closed position; Fig. 5 shows a side view of an elastic damping element according to the fourth embodiment in an open position; Fig. 6 shows a side view of an elastic damping element according to a fifth embodiment not falling within the scope of the claims; Fig. 7 shows a side view of an elastic damping element according to a sixth embodiment; and Fig.8 a side view of an elastic damping element according to a seventh embodiment. .
[0056] Fig. 1 shows a side view of an elastic damping element according to a first embodiment. Fig. 1 The elastic damping element 100 shown serves to accommodate a Fig. 1 not shown line, for example a fluid-carrying line or an electrical line, in particular a line with a line diameter between 4 mm and 10 mm, although alternatively an elastic damping element 100 can also be provided to accommodate a line with a larger line diameter. The elastic damping element 100 ensures that the accommodated line is held in position and that any components arranged outside the elastic damping element 100 are dampened in the event of contact with the elastic damping element 100. This decouples acoustic noises and vibrations of the line accommodated in the elastic damping element 100 cannot be passed on to the components arranged outside.If corresponding lines are designed as electrical lines and an elastic damping element 100 is used for each of the corresponding lines, the elastic damping elements 100 can also ensure effective spacing between the electrical lines, so that effective electrical or electromagnetic decoupling between the corresponding electrical lines is ensured.
[0057] The elastic damping element 100 according to the Fig. 1 The first embodiment shown comprises an elastic sleeve ring 101 for enclosing the Fig. 1 not shown line. The elastic sleeve ring 101 is designed in particular as an annular and circumferentially closed elastic sleeve ring 101. The elastic sleeve ring 101 has an inner wall 103 facing the line, which encloses a sleeve ring interior 104 for receiving the line.
[0058] A plurality of radially extending recesses 105 are formed in the inner wall 103. Between each two recesses 105 formed adjacent to one another in the inner wall 103, a curved and tapered web 107 is formed, extending toward the sleeve ring interior 104.
[0059] The webs 107 are located circumferentially on the sleeve ring interior 104 and in Fig. 1 not shown line and serve to absorb shocks and vibrations of the line enclosed by the elastic damping element 100.
[0060] The elastic sleeve ring 101, and in particular also the webs 107, comprise an elastomer plastic, in particular ethylene propylene diene rubber (EPDM), nitrile rubber (NBR), silicone, thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), and / or polyvinyl chloride (PVC). The elastomer plastic has a Shore hardness between 50 and 100 ShoreA, in particular between 70 and 100 ShoreA, which ensures particularly effective elastic deformability of the elastic sleeve ring 101, in particular of the webs 107. The Shore hardness is determined according to the DIN ISO 7619-1 standard.
[0061] As from the Fig. 1 As can be seen, the webs 107 arranged next to one another on the inner wall 103 in the direction of rotation 109 are thus each separated from one another by a recess 105.
[0062] The webs 107 are curved in the same direction of rotation 109.
[0063] The webs 107 each have a first curved web side wall 111, which faces a first recess 105-1 of the two recesses 105 formed side by side in the inner wall 103. The webs 107 each have a second curved web side wall 113, which faces a second recess 105-2 of the two recesses 105 formed side by side in the inner wall 103.
[0064] As in the Fig. 1 As shown, the first curved web side wall 111 and the second curved web side wall 113 are curved in the same direction of curvature 115, so that the webs 107 can deflect in the same direction.
[0065] In particular, the first curved web side wall 111 of the respective web 107 is shaped as a first concavely curved web side wall 111, and in particular the second curved web side wall 113 of the respective web 107 is shaped as a second convexly curved web side wall 113.
[0066] In this case, a respective web tip 117 of the web 107, which is curved radially in the direction of the sleeve ring interior 104 and tapers to a point, is designed to rest against the line accommodated in the sleeve ring interior 104. The respective web tip 117 is in particular designed to be held by the web tip 117 resting against and in Fig. 1 not shown line, to be displaced at least in sections radially in the direction of the inner wall 103 in order to exert a contact force on the line.
[0067] Thus, the webs 107 ensure an effective clamping effect on the cable accommodated in the sleeve ring interior 104.
[0068] The curved webs 107 can in particular also be defined as follows.
[0069] One in Fig. 1 The radial direction axis 119 of the respective web 107 shown extends from a center point 121 of a base surface 123 of the respective web 107 to a sleeve center axis 125 of the elastic sleeve ring 101.
[0070] The respective web 107 has a web center axis 127 which extends from the web tip 117 of the respective web 107 to the center point 121 of the base area 123 of the respective web 107.
[0071] As from the Fig. 1 As can be seen, the curved shape of the respective web 107 requires that the respective web center axis 127 extends at an angle to the respective radial direction axis 119.
[0072] In addition, the respective web 107 extends along a web longitudinal axis 129, which is parallel to a Fig. 1 not shown longitudinal direction of the line which can be enclosed by the elastic sleeve ring 101, wherein the web longitudinal axis 129 is also parallel to the Fig. 1 shown sleeve center axis 125.
[0073] Here, the respective first curved web side wall 111 and the second curved web side wall 113 are each curved about a first and second axes of curvature 131 and 133 extending parallel to the respective web longitudinal axis 129, wherein the respective axes of curvature 131, 133 are displaced relative to the respective web longitudinal axis 129 along a circumferential direction 109 of the elastic sleeve ring 101.
[0074] The elastic sleeve ring 101 with the webs 107 can thus ensure effective reception and fixation of the cable in the elastic sleeve ring 101 and enable advantageous damping of vibrations in the cable.
[0075] As from the Fig. 1 As can also be seen, the elastic sleeve ring 101 has an outer wall 135 facing away from the line, wherein a plurality of radially extending outer webs 137 are formed on the outer wall 135, which are designed to maintain a distance in Fig. 1 components not shown arranged outside the elastic damping element 100.
[0076] The outer webs 137 are arranged in particular next to one another in the circumferential direction 109 on the outer wall 135, wherein in particular two outer webs 137 arranged next to one another in the circumferential direction 109 on the outer wall 135 are spaced from one another by an outer web recess 139 each.
[0077] The outer webs 137 each have an outer web upper side 141 facing away from the sleeve ring interior 104, in particular a straight-shaped outer web upper side 141. The outer webs 137 each have a first outer web side wall 143-1, in particular a curved-shaped first outer web side wall 143-1, which faces a first outer web recess 139-1 of the two outer web recesses 139. The outer webs 137 each have a second outer web side wall 143-2, in particular a curved-shaped second outer web side wall 143-2, which faces a second outer web recess 139-2 of the two outer web recesses 139.
[0078] The outer webs 137 ensure that an effective damping spacing is achieved from components arranged outside the elastic damping element 100.
[0079] It is emphasized that the outer webs 137 arranged on the outer wall 135 are merely optional, so that within the scope of the Fig. 1 shown embodiment according to the first embodiment is to provide an elastic damping element 100 without outer webs 137.
[0080] Regardless of this, the Fig. 1 The outer webs 137 shown can comprise any desired shape and, for example, also have a straight first and / or second outer web side wall 143-1, 143-2. Irrespective of this, the Fig. 1 The outer webs 137 shown can also be formed as outer webs 137 tapering outwards, which thus have an outer web tip instead of the outer web top side 141.
[0081] Irrespective of this, alternatively or in addition to the Fig. 1 In addition to the outer webs 137 shown on the outer wall 135, outer grooves formed as depressions can also be arranged.
[0082] Fig. 2 shows a side view of an elastic damping element according to a second embodiment.
[0083] The Fig. 2 The elastic damping element 100 shown corresponds to the one shown in Fig. 1 illustrated elastic damping element 100 except that an adhesive element 145 is arranged on the outer wall 135 of the elastic sleeve ring 101, which adhesive element is designed to bond the elastic damping element 100 to a further Fig. 2 to connect a component not shown by means of an adhesive connection.
[0084] The adhesive element 145 has an adhesive surface 147, which is covered by a peel-off element 149 detachably connected to the adhesive surface 147. The peel-off element 149 detachably connected to the adhesive surface 147 is designed to be removed from the adhesive surface 147 in order to expose the adhesive surface 147 for providing the adhesive connection to the further component. The peel-off element 149 has, in particular, a gripping portion 151, which protrudes from the outer wall 135 and can be grasped by a user of the elastic damping element 100 in order to peel the peel-off element 149 from the adhesive surface 147 and thus expose the adhesive surface 147.
[0085] If the adhesive surface 147 of the adhesive element 145 is exposed, the adhesive surface 147 can be bonded to the Fig. 2 another component not shown can be glued.
[0086] Fig. 3 shows a side view of an elastic damping element according to a third embodiment.
[0087] The Fig. 3 The elastic damping element 100 shown corresponds to the one shown in Fig. 1 illustrated elastic damping element 100 except that a fastening element 153 is arranged on the outer wall 135, which extends radially from the outer wall 135 and is designed to plug-connect the elastic damping element 100 to an additional component 155. The fastening element 153 is designed in particular as a fastening rib, which is formed in particular in one piece with the outer wall 135 of the elastic damping element 100. The fastening rib extends on the outer wall 135, in particular parallel to the Fig. 3 not shown sleeve center axis 125 of the elastic sleeve ring 101. The fastening element 153 has a fastening shaft 157 which is connected to the outer wall 135 of the elastic sleeve ring 101 and which extends from the outer wall 135 in the direction of the additional component 155 and is designed to be passed through a fastening opening 159 of the additional component 155.
[0088] Since the fastening element 153 is designed in particular as a fastening rib, the corresponding fastening opening 159 of the additional component 155 is designed in particular as an elongated hole through which the rib-like fastening shaft 157 of the fastening element 153 designed as a fastening rib can be passed.
[0089] At least one fastening projection 161 is arranged on the fastening shaft 157, which is designed to bear against a side 163 of the additional component 155 facing away from the elastic damping element 100 in order to ensure effective fastening of the fastening element 153 to the additional component 155.
[0090] The outer wall 135 of the elastic sleeve ring 101 further has a contact surface 165 facing the additional component 155, wherein a contact element 167, in particular a contact rib, is arranged on the contact surface 165, which is designed to bear against a wall 169 of the additional component 155 facing the elastic damping element 100.
[0091] Thus, the fastening element 153 enables an effective fastening of the elastic damping element 100 to the additional component 155 and the contact element 167 ensures an effective damping spacing between the elastic damping element 100 and the additional component 155.
[0092] Fig. 4 shows a side view of an elastic damping element according to a fourth embodiment in a closed position.
[0093] The Fig. 4 The elastic damping element 100 shown corresponds to the one shown in Fig. 1 illustrated elastic damping element 100 except that the elastic sleeve ring 101 is not designed as a closed elastic sleeve ring 101, but as a closable elastic sleeve ring 101, which can be opened and closed again in order to accommodate the cable.
[0094] Here, the elastic sleeve ring 101 has a closure portion 171 for closing the elastic sleeve ring 101 around the line. In particular, a barb 175 is formed on a first region 173 of the closure portion 171. In particular, a receiving opening 179 for receiving the barb 175 is formed on a second region 177 of the closure portion 171.
[0095] This creates an integral and one-piece closure section 171 in the elastic sleeve ring 101, which allows the elastic damping element 100 to be placed and closed at any location on the line. When the elastic damping element 100 is closed, the barb 175 is pressed into the receiving opening 179. This places the webs 107 against the line. In this case, the elastic damping element 100 is not moved along the line, but rather placed at a predetermined location. The closure section 171 can comprise a thermoplastic or elastomer plastic, and can in particular be formed from EPDM, NBR, silicone, TPE and / or PVC. The elastomer plastic has in particular a Shore hardness between 50 and 110, in particular between 80 and 100, which can ensure a particularly stable arrangement of the closure section 171.The Shore hardness is determined according to DIN ISO 7619-1.
[0096] Fig. 5 shows a side view of the elastic damping element according to the fourth embodiment in an open position.
[0097] As in the Fig. 5 As shown, the barb 175 is not received in the receiving opening 179 in the open position, and the elastic sleeve ring 101 of the elastic damping element 100 is in an expanded position to ensure effective reception of the cable. If the cable is within the Fig. 5 Once positioned in the open elastic sleeve ring 101 shown, the elastic sleeve ring 101 can then be closed and the barb 175 can be received in the receiving opening 179 in order to secure the cable according to the Fig. 4 to effectively enclose the closed position shown.
[0098] Fig. 6 shows a side view of an elastic damping element according to a fifth embodiment.
[0099] The elastic damping element 100 according to the Fig. 6 The fifth embodiment shown corresponds to the elastic damping element 100 according to the Fig. 4 and Fig. 5 shown fourth embodiment, except that an adhesive element 145 is arranged on the outer wall 135 of the elastic sleeve ring 101, which adhesive element is designed to connect the elastic damping element 100 with a further Fig. 6 not shown component by means of an adhesive connection. For further details regarding the adhesive element 145, please refer to the explanations for Fig. 2 referred to.
