CHAIN SADDLE ASSEMBLY

摘要

A chain saddle assembly is disclosed which permits a chain used as a sling to be supported at any point between its opposite ends. The supported link is placed in a groove so that the link is lying sideways with one leg of the link above the other. Ledges are provided which engage the two links of the chain adjacent to the link which is being supported. The assembly thus prevents possible slipage of the chain through the assembly while providing proper support without imposing undue stress concentrations on the supported link or the links adjacent to it.
