Cadena así como procedimiento para la fabricación de una cadena

Cadena, incluyendo un número de elementos de cadena, estando ensamblado con una pretensión al menos un elemento de cadena, siendo el elemento de cadena una brida (2), donde la brida presenta un eje longitudinal (6') y orificios de brida (3) con un eje de orificio (7) para el alojamiento de un extremo de pasador o de un extremo de manguito, caracterizada porque el eje de orificio (7) no está alineado ortogonal, en particular oblicuo, respecto del eje longitudinal (6') o del sentido de tracción (F) de la cadena. A chain, in particular a technical chain, preferably a unidimensionally movable chain (plate link chain), more preferably a bolt chain or roller chain, has at least one or more chain links. The at least one chain link is constructed with pretensioning. A manufacturing method includes the following steps: assembling at least one chain link from at least two link plates with link plate holes and two bolts or sleeves. In the non-assembled state, the link plate is not straight, in particular has a curved form, and/or the link plate and the link plate holes have a hole axis, wherein the hole axis is not right-angled, and/or, in the non-assembled state, the bolt or the sleeve is not straight, in particular has a curved form. The chain is assembled from at least two chain links and at least one chain link is manufactured in this way.
