Connecting means for two crossing cable strands of cable play systems

Abstract

The invention relates to a connecting means ( 1 ) for two crossing cable strands ( 2.1, 2.2 ) of cable play systems having a cloverleaf-shaped inner cable guide opening ( 5 ) in which, in a wraparound region ( 6 ), cable strands deflected by a wraparound angle ( 7 ) are fixed, wherein a height ( 3 ) of the connecting means is equal to or greater than a cable diameter ( 4 ) of the cable strands to be connected.

1 . A connecting means for two crossing cable strands of cable play systems having a cloverleaf-shaped inner cable guide opening ( 5 ) in which, in a wraparound region ( 6 ), the cable strands ( 2 . 1 ,  2 . 2 ) deflected by a wraparound angle ( 7 ) can be fixed, wherein a height ( 3 ) of the connecting means ( 1 ) is equal to or greater than a cable diameter ( 4 ) of the cable strands ( 2 . 1 ,  2 . 2 ) to be connected. 
   
   
       2 . A connecting means according to  claim 1 , wherein the height ( 3 ) is the distance between an upper and lower edge of a wall ( 8 ) on which the cable strands ( 2 . 1 ,  2 . 2 ) which can be guided out of the cable guide opening ( 5 ) on both sides in an angled manner and in opposite directions are supported. 
   
   
       3 . A connecting means according to  claim 1 , wherein the upper and lower edge of the wall ( 8 ) on which the cable strands ( 2 . 1 ,  2 . 2 ) which can be guided out of the cable guide opening on both sides in an angled manner and in opposite directions are supported are formed as a supporting recess ( 13 ) for the cable strands ( 2 . 1 ,  2 . 2 ). 
   
   
       4 . A connecting means according to  claim 1 , wherein the wall ( 8 ) has mass-reducing holes ( 9 ). 
   
   
       5 . A connecting means according to  claim 1 , wherein the wall ( 8 ) has two opposing bores ( 10 ) perpendicular to the axis of the connecting means ( 1 ) for accommodating a pin.
