Transport protection for cable ends on compression struts
View Patent ↗Transport protection is provided for cable ends on compression struts of motor vehicles in which the cable ends protrude from hollow piston rods. In order to create transport protection which protects a cable end from damage, a pipe section is provided on the end of the compression strut at which the cable end protrudes from a hollow piston rod. The inside of the pipe section accommodates the rolled-up cable end and has an inside diameter selected to be greater than the outer area of the end region of the piston rod.
1. Transport protection for a cable end on a compression strut of a motor vehicle, the cable end protruding from a hollow piston rod, comprising a pipe section held on the compression strut of the motor vehicle in an area where the cable end protrudes from the piston rod, wherein the pipe section accommodates the cable end when the cable end is rolled up, wherein an inside diameter of the pipe section is greater than an outer diameter of an end region of the piston rod, and wherein the pipe section consists of cardboard.
2. Transport protection according to claim 1 , wherein the pipe section has a tapered design in one axial end region.
