摘要 |
A chain saw (1) comprises an endless saw chain (11) and a saw bar (9) with a peripheral track for the saw chain (11). The saw chain (11) has a plurality of chain links and/or chain link components, in particular cutter links (29), drive links (23) and/or tie straps (35). At least one of the tie straps (35) comprises a cavity (43) or notch arranged at a first lateral surface (45) thereof. The first lateral surface (45) faces a lateral surface of at least one adjacent chain link or chain link component. In order to provide a saw chain movement with minimized wear and in addition a further reduction of the tendency of the chain links to flex during operation, the cavity (43) or notch is manufactured during a deforming process, serves as a reservoir for a lubricant, in particular for oil, for lubrication of the saw chain (11) and comprises an extension essentially in the driving direction of the saw chain (11) and, at least in part, a dilatation, an extension and/or a branching essentially extending in the direction perpendicular thereto. |
