Kabelhalterungsvorrichtung zur Verwendung mit einer Kabelführungskette

A cable handling chain link (10) including an open sided cable compartment defined between an upper wall (12), a lower wall (14) and a partition (15) extending between the upper and lower walls, the partition being located in board from the side edges of the upper and lower walls which side edges define the open side of the compartment, and a cable retention device (30) releasably connectable to the chain link, the cable retention device (30) being a unitary member of generally elongate form having an abutment face (34) which abuts against the inside face of one of said walls, and having a resilient tongue formation (36) which co-operates with said inside face and a reaction means (16) formed on the chain link to resiliently urge said abutment face into contact with said inside face, detent means (40) on said abutment face and/or said tongue for co-operation with the chain link to restrain longitudinal withdrawal of the retention device and a lateral projection (50) extending laterally away from said abutment face toward the opposite wall, said lateral projection acting to retain cables within said compartment.
