A line guide device comprising an envelope for supply lines and an articulated support chain. One chain link has an inside projection in a first longitudinal portion and an inside cross-bridge with an extended stop face and a recess adjoining the cross-bridge in a second longitudinal portion. In the extended position, the projection of one chain link engages in the recess of the following chain link and on the cross-bridge thereof. A support chain, in which each chain link has, in its second longitudinal portion, an outside cross-connection which in the arcuate position interacts with an outside arc stop face of the first longitudinal portion and has an inside cross-connection which in the extended position interacts with an inside extended stop face of the first longitudinal portion.

Line guide device for cleanroom applications and also supporting chain and chain link for it

A chain link for an energy transmission chain, comprising two mutually spaced side plates which are interconnected by means of two crosspieces, delimit an interior for guiding cables and each have inner faces facing the interior. A frame module is provided and is mounted between the crosspieces, borders a portion of the interior and delimits at least one guide chamber for the purpose of internal subdivision. The frame module has two lateral walls and two transverse regions extending transversely thereto, wherein each transverse region covers part of the inner face of a crosspiece and forms a cable-protecting support face.
