Patent attributes
A chain link for a haulage chain capable of hauling cables and hoses, wherein a housing body has opposed side walls extending between opposed top and bottom walls, first and second chain link transmission members respectively connected to the opposed side walls and each being configured for pivotal connection to respective first and second chain link transmission members of adjacent chain links to define a chain. The top wall and an upper portion of each of the opposed side walls defines a first housing shell and the bottom wall and a lower portion of each of the opposed side walls define a second housing shell, the first and second housing shells being separable from one another. The first and second housing shells are retained together to define the housing, but are separable to permit loading/removal of cables and hoses into/out of the chain link.
