Cable drag chain and cable drag chain assembly

摘要

A cable drag chain includes a number of first coupling members, a number of second coupling members engaging with the first coupling members, a number of latching members each including at least one mounting portion, a first fixing member and a second fixing member engaged with opposite ends of the first and second coupling members, and a sliding member slidably coupled to the first fixing member and including a latching portion. When the sliding member slides from the first fixing member to the second fixing member, the latching portion urges against the at least one mounting portion of each latching member to engage each latching member with corresponding first and second coupling members for holding a cable.

主权项

1. A cable drag chain for holding a cable, the cable drag chain comprising:
a first chain having a front end and a rear end and comprising a plurality of first coupling members each defining an engaging hole, the plurality of first coupling members sequentially coupled one by one to form the first chain; a second chain having a front end and a rear end and comprising a plurality of second coupling members each defining a through hole, wherein the plurality of second coupling members is sequentially coupled one by one to form the second chain and is engaged with the plurality of first coupling members for receiving the cable; a plurality of latching members each comprising a base pivotably coupled to a front side of a corresponding first coupling member, a post located on the base, and at least one mounting portion located on the base; a first fixing member engaged with the front ends of the first chain and the second chain; a second fixing member engaged with the rear ends of the first chain and the second chain; and a sliding member comprising a latching portion and slidably coupled to the first fixing member and configured to slide along the first chain, the second chain, and the second fixing member; wherein, when the sliding member is slid over at least one first coupling member, the latching member pivotably coupled to the at least one first coupling member, and the second coupling member engaged with the at least one first coupling member from the first fixing member to the second fixing member, the latching portion of the sliding member urges against the at least one mounting portion of the latching member to make the post of the latching member extend through the through hole of the second coupling member and be engaged in the engaging hole of the at least one first coupling member for holding the cable.
