the Invention] The subject of the invention relates to a line guiding device for guiding a pipeline, a pipe or the like between a fixed and a movable connection point. t: Prior Art 3 discloses a pipeline guiding device for guiding pipelines and/or ropes for conducting energy in the form of electricity, water, compressed air, etc., for use in external supply of equipment on a robotic arm, in WO 01/09532 . The line guiding device has a plurality of links that are hingedly coupled together to form a passage for the rope and/or the pipe. In each case, the links have on their surfaces - the pins of the two-hole links define the articulation - the first shaft and the pins of the same link define one of the hinges and the second axis. In each of the examples, the holes and the latching system are disposed on the lateral surfaces of the opposite side surfaces of the links, such that the two axes of the hinge are disposed perpendicular to each other and to the longitudinal axis of the pipeline guide vertical. The individual links are made of _ thermoplastic material. Rn ^ tf'j A line guiding device between a fixed and a movable joint for guiding a pipeline, a pipe or the like. The pipeline guiding device comprises at least a space deflectable (four) minute. The struts are formed by the passages (4) to accommodate the pipelines, pipes or the like. The links are supplemented by a flexible connecting element. The splicable connecting element substantially absorbs the forces present during the operation of the absorbing robot and on the line guiding device. Therefore, in the aspect, a power dissipation between the power absorption and the pipeline guidance is achieved. 3 201219674 The spatially deflectable portion formed by the links is defined by an inflammatory body connected to the flexible connecting element. [Continuing from the examination] The purpose of the present invention is to develop the well-known official guide device, thereby improving the stability of the pipeline guiding device. This object is achieved according to the invention by a line guiding device having the characteristics of the first item of the patent application for guiding a line, a pipe or the like between a fixed and a movable connection point. Advantageous developments and specific embodiments of the pipeline guiding device of the present invention constitute the main content of the scope of the patent application. The pipeline guiding device of the present invention for guiding a pipe, a pipe or the like between a fixed and a movable connection point, comprising at least a part of the fault is constituted by a link. The dedicated link defines a passage for receiving a pipeline, a pipe or the like. The links are connected together by a flexible connecting member. The support bodies are arranged on the connecting element, fixedly and spaced apart from one another. At least a plurality of linkages are coupled to the support bodies. In each of the examples, a fixed position of the female link of the line guiding device is achieved by connecting the links to the main body of the building. Therefore, a greater stability of one of the pipeline bow guides is achieved. In addition, if the change in spacing between the fixed support bodies causes the flexible pipeline guiding element to stretch, no post-processing is required, and the flexible connecting element can be made loose or non-releasable. It is advantageous to connect "if at least - support the primary system to connect to the connecting element in a forward and/or non-positive manner. The spacing between adjacent support bodies of 4 201219674 can be changed by the non-active and/or active connection of the supporting bodies to the connecting elements. This change in spacing allows the use of different sized links. The flexible element is preferably a cord or the like. The flexible element can be constructed of a plastic material or a metal. The flexible element can also be constructed, for example, by being configured as a leaf spring or a chain or the like. The flexible element can be configured such that it has no bending strength or only minimal bending strength in one direction. The particular embodiment of the present invention directed to the line guiding device is preferably configured such that the portion is deflectable in space. The line guiding device, in particular, is adapted for use with a processing device, preferably the device is a robot that can move with the robot arm or individual components of the robot during movement. As reliability increases, it is proposed that at least one supporting main system is connected to the connecting element by a material connecting portion. The connecting portion may be a welded, welded or bonded connecting portion. The support bodies can also be hardened or compressed. According to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, it is proposed that at least one supporting main system is integrally formed on the connecting element, in particular moulded or injection molded. It is not necessary to connect each support member to a link. Advantageously, the links are connectable to a selected support body. Conversely, it is also possible to connect a link to at least two support bodies. Therefore, it can be achieved that the pipeline guiding device has a substantially rigid portion. If a hard part needs to be formed inside the pipeline guiding device, it can be achieved by a 201219674 intermediate piece connected to at least two supporting bodies. The intermediate member can be configured in the form of an adapter such that additional components of the line guiding device can be coupled thereto. The adapter, for example, can be an adapter for releasing strain and fastening members. According to an advantageous embodiment of the pipeline guiding device of the invention, it is proposed that at least one of the connecting rods is connected to a supporting body in an articulated manner. In particular, this particular embodiment is advantageous when adjacent links are interlocked or arranged at a very short distance from each other. The hinged connection between a link and a support body is preferably formed by a ball joint connection. If a ball joint is provided, advantageously the additional assembly can be omitted if the support main system is of a generally spherical configuration such that the support body is also part of the hinged connection. Therefore, the installation and/or manufacture of the pipeline guiding device of the present invention is simplified. According to a more advantageous embodiment of the pipeline guiding device, at least one of the links is provided in a two-piece configuration, the dividing surface preferably being disposed transversely to the longitudinal direction of the pipeline guiding device. Thus, a simplified installation of the pipeline guiding device of the present invention is achieved. In addition, damaged links can be replaced at minimal cost. According to another advantageous embodiment of the line guiding device, it is proposed that the connecting rod has at least one wall connected to a central body, the wall partially defining the passage and the central main system being connected to the supporting body. A particularly advantageous embodiment is that the wall is in the form of an arch. In order to introduce a pipeline, a pipeline or the like into the passage or to replace a pipeline, a pipeline or the like, according to another advantageous embodiment of the pipeline guiding device of the invention 6 201219674, it is proposed that the wall system is at least partially It is pivotable. In order to reduce the inherent weight of the line guiding device, it is advantageous if the wall is in the shape of a package.
