Abstract
A cable chain includes clockwise sections and counter-clockwise sections alternatively arranged and connected in series. Each clockwise section has concatenated clockwise chain monomers, wherein an included angle between each two clockwise chain monomers is limited from 0 degree to 180 degrees. Each counter-clockwise section has concatenated counter-clockwise chain monomers, wherein the included angle between each two counter-clockwise chain monomers is limited from 180 degrees to 360 degrees. Therefore, the cable chain may be bent back and forth like a letter W.
Claims15
A cable chains comprising:
- a plurality of clockwise chain monomers concatenated to form a plurality of clockwise sections, wherein an included angle between each two immediately-connected clockwise chain monomers consists of a range of 0 degree to 180 degrees, and
- a plurality of counter-clockwise chain monomers concatenated to form a plurality of counter-clockwise sections and at least a lengthening sections wherein an included angle between each two immediately-connected counter-clockwise chain monomers consists of a range of 180 degrees to 360 degrees,
- the lengthening section being series connected to one of the clockwise sections, and the clockwise sections and the counter-clockwise sections being alternatively arranged and connected in a series.
A cabinet, comprising:
- a chassis having a slide;
- a drawer connected the chassis via the slide;
- a box fastened on the drawer, the box having a pair of opposite sidewalls, and
- a cable chain comprising:
- a plurality of clockwise chain monomers concatenated to form at least one clockwise section, wherein an included angle between each two immediately-connected clockwise chain monomers consists of a range of 0 degree to 180 degrees;
- and
- a plurality of counter-clockwise chain monomers concatenated to form at least one counter-clockwise section and at least a lengthening section, wherein an included angle between each two immediately-connected counter-clockwise chain monomers consists of a range of 180 degrees to 360 degrees,
- the lengthening section being fastened on the chassis, the counterclockwise section being fastened on the drawer and the clockwise section interposing between and being series connected to the lengthening section and the counter-clockwise section,
- when the drawer sliding forward to the chassis along the slide, the cable chain being engaged by the box to be bent back and forth between the sidewalls.
