Abstract

In a guide arrangement with a combined deceleration and acceleration arrangement which is disposed in a carrier housing mounted on a guide track, the carrier housing includes at least two spaced engagement elements and the guide track includes corresponding counter engagement elements which, together form clamping connections wherein at least one of the carrier housing-side and the guide track-side engagement elements or in the form of projections and the corresponding engagement elements guide track or, respectively, the housing-side engagement are in the form engagement ears slidably receiving the projections.

Claims (11)

1. A guide arrangement ( 1 ) including a combined deceleration and acceleration arrangement ( 20 ) disposed in a carrier, housing ( 21 ) mounted on a guide track:

the carrier housing ( 21 ) including at least two spaced housing-side engagement elements ( 36 , 37 ; 37 , 38 ; 36 , 38 ),

the guide track ( 10 ) including at least two corresponding guide track-side engagement elements ( 16 , 17 ; 17 , 18 ; 16 , 18 ) which form, together with the respective carrier housing-side engagement elements ( 36 , 37 ; 37 , 38 ; 36 , 38 ), a clamping connection ( 2 ) and

at least one of the carrier housing-side engagement elements ( 36 , 37 ; 37 , 38 ; 36 , 38 ) and the guide track-side engagement elements ( 16 , 17 ; 17 , 18 ; 16 , 18 ) being in the form of cantilevered engagement projections and the respective other engagement elements ( 16 , 17 ; 17 , 18 ; 16 , 18 ; 36 , 37 ; 37 , 38 ; 36 , 38 ) being in the form of ears, the cantilevered engagement projections extending all in the same direction and the cantilevered engagement projection ( 36 ) first inserted below an engagement ear ( 16 ) during installation of the deceleration and acceleration arrangement ( 20 ) being longer than the other cantilevered engagement projections ( 37 , 38 ),

a support web ( 39 ) being arranged on the housing ( 21 ) adjacent the first inserted cantilevered engagement projection ( 36 ) so as to form a support surface ( 41 ) disposed in a plane along which the other engagement projections ( 37 , 38 ) are arranged, and

the support web ( 39 ) being provided with another engagement projection ( 42 ) extending normal to the support surface ( 41 ) and being received in a cut-out ( 12 ) of the guide track ( 10 ).

2. The guide arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the direction ( 14 ) of orientation is parallel to the main operating direction ( 45 ) of the combined deceleration and acceleration arrangement ( 20 ).

3. The guide arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the engagement projections ( 36 - 38 ) are arranged on the carrier housing ( 21 ).

4. The guide arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the longest engagement projection ( 36 ) is disposed, adjacent a limiting wall ( 43 ) of the carrier housing ( 21 ).

5. The guide arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the guide track ( 10 ) includes at least three engagement ears ( 16 - 18 ) whose distance from each other corresponds to the distance between the respective engagement projections ( 36 - 38 ).

6. The guide arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the opening width of the individual engagement ears ( 16 - 18 ) is wider by 5% than the width of an engagement projections ( 36 - 38 ).
