Abstract
An energy conductor chain for guiding energy conduits (6), particularly cables or hoses, from a fixed attachment point to a movable consuming load, comprises a plurality of chain links (A to E) formed by two outer plates (2, 3) which are connected with each other by a divisible bar, the mutual angle of swing of the adjacent chain links being limited by stops (9). In order to create an energy conductor chain of plastic which consists of only a few individual parts and which can be opened and closed without special tools, each chain link (A to E) is formed of a U-shaped receiving part (1) which is as a single piece of stable form and whose legs form the two outer plates (2, 3), and a closure yoke (5) which can be connected to the free edges of the outer plates (2, 3). The yoke is pivoted to the outer plate (3) by a joint and can be locked by an elastic hook (12) to the other outer plate (2).
