Abstract
A chain guide for a continuous running transport chain includes chain links with track rollers and guide rollers that correspond to a guide rail with two tracks for the track rollers at a distance from one another and in between a groove profile for the engagement of the guide rollers. The guide rollers are supported by axle bolts that protrude at the chain links and through which the guide rollers protrude. To achieve good vibration damping of the transport chain, magnets are placed at the bottom of the groove profile of the guide rail with the magnetic circuit closing across the free ends of the axle bolts at the chain links across an air gap.
