Abstract

A damper apparatus for a belt element of a belt transmission includes a sliding surface, a bearing receptacle, a first rail half and a second rail half. The sliding surface is arranged to contact a strand of the belt element to dampen the belt element. The bearing receptacle is arranged to align the sliding surface with the strand such that the sliding surface defines a strand travel direction, normal to a transversal direction. The first rail half has a first plunge opening with a first hook lid, and the second rail half has a second plunge opening with a second hook lid. The first rail half and the second rail half are interlockingly connected in contact to each other crosswise to the strand travel direction, and the first hook lid is arranged to plunge into the second plunge opening behind the second hook lid in a gripping manner.
