ABSTRACT:
In a chain joint which consists of two identical, essentially U-shaped joint halves (1,2), the outer legs (3) and the inner legs (4) of the joint halves are provided with holding teeth (14-16 and 17-19 respectively). The holding teeth are here designed with unequal thickness, in such a way that certain pairs of holding teeth (15, 18) absorb a greater load than the other pairs of holding teeth (14,19,16,17). Due to the chosen arrangement, those zones of the outer legs (3) which are located most closely to the shackle base (9) of the joint halves (1,2) are noticeably relieved, and a premature rupture of the chain joint is prevented in this way.
