Abstract:
The occupation space of a chain inside an engine room can be reduced, while the necessary strength, rigidity, and durability are maintained, the sheet thickness can be decreased, the number of production steps and material waste can be reduced, stress concentration and strains during bending and fixing can be reduced, load offset during fixing and loosening of bolts or the like can be prevented, the increase in vibrations and noise during the use can be prevented, the maintenance operation load can be reduced, and utility can be increased with a simple configuration. A chain guide is provided with a base member supporting a guide shoe. The base member has a base mounting portion and base wall portions formed to sandwich the guide shoe from both sides in a width direction. The guide shoe has a guide shoe mounting portion at a position apart from the base mounting portion in the chain running direction.
