As I feared that the hotbed cable may break over time due to constant sharp bending I searched for a solution and ended up here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4318284. I really liked the chain design but not that I would have to rotate the bed 90°, that actually was a no-go to me. That's why I ended up modifying the attachment to a style like shown in https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4253211. The STL files are added here. The chain-links and springs are 100% original and you need 14 of them.

Print parameters: layer height 0.2mm, 50% Cubic Infill with 2 lines and support where needed. I printed with PLA but PETG or ABS/ASA might be better.

The hotbed bracket is attached with the rear 2 screws holding the rear bearing. The chassis bracket can be attached with two M3 screws and nuts or a wire tie or two 3,9mm sheet metal screws.

 

2022-05-05 Was made aware that I uploaded the wrong file for chassis-bracket. Was the one I started the remix from. Now the correct one is uploaded. Sorry!
