Abstract
The invention relates to a cable guide (1) for a cable connection between a vehicle body (52) and a sliding door (54) comprising a first connection device (4), a second connection device (2) and an energy chain (3) running between the first connection device (4) and the second connection device (2), which has a stretched configuration when the sliding door (54) is closed and a deflected configuration when the sliding door (54) is open, wherein the energy chain (3) has a first end link (42) at one end and a second end link (42) at the opposite end (22), wherein the first end link (42) is pivoted on the first connection device (4) and the second connection device (2) comprises a tensioning device (24) for the energy chain (3).The cable guide (1) according to the invention is further characterized in that the second end link (22) of the energy chain (3) is mounted longitudinally movable on the second connection device (2) and is acted upon by the tensioning device (24) in such a way that, in stretched configuration of the energy chain (3), the second end link (22) is sustained in a floating equilibrium position movable in both directions.The invention also relates to a motor vehicle (…
