Guide pieces for roller chain which can be pulled apart

摘要

The guide rail for a roller chain (1) of a winding device comprises four separate segments (82-85) in the directions of the longitudinal axis (I-I) and of the radial axis (II-II) of the rollers, at right angles to the delivery direction. Relative to the intersection of the axes, segments lying diagonally opposite each other can be pulled apart. Each pair of segments (82 & 83, or 84 & 85) is rigidly connected by a C-shaped piece (80,81) and these pieces can be pulled apart. The edges of the segments are chamfered in the region of the roller chain.
