Abstract
In a travelling trolley assembly, the two side frame bars ( ) which extend on either side of the running rail ( ) are connected to one another via two connecting columns ( ). The connecting columns ( ) are smooth and cylindrical on the outside are fitted into receiving or sliding-guidance devices which are formed in the side frame bars ( ) below the running rail ( ). In order to adjust the distance between the two side frame bars ( ) and to fix the distance which has been set, receiving devices, through which a threaded rod ( ) which is parallel to the connecting column ( ) passes, are situated in the vicinity of the connecting columns ( ). The distance is adjusted and fixed with the aid of screw threads ( ), preferably lock nuts, which rest on the connecting rod ( ). This type of fixing arrangement does not damage the shape of the guide columns ( ), so that dismantling is easy to carry out at any time.
