ABSTRACT:
A guide chain for guiding energy lines from a stationary connection to a movable consuming device consists of a plurality of chain members that are connected with one another as to be pivotable about a pivot angle. Each chain member is comprised of two side portions arranged at a distance parallel to one another and connected by two transverse elements. The pivot angle between two neighboring chain members is limited by stop inserts which are inserted into corresponding recessed portions of the side portions. In order to adapt the pivot angle of two neighboring chain members to different applications, it is suggested that the stop insert is provided as a disk with at least two cutouts whereby at least one cutout is in the form of a radial slot and the outer cutout is arc-shaped. The slot and the arc-shaped cutout are arranged at an angle .alpha. relative to one another. Within the recessed portions of the side portions, stops are provided which engage the slot, respectively, the arc-shaped cutout.
