Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cam bearing followers, in particular to a cam bearing follower sliding device. Background Art

[0002] A cam follower is a mechanical transmission element that integrates bearing and cam follower functions. It typically consists of an outer ring, rolling elements, a cage, and a cam contact structure. Its core feature is that the sliding friction of traditional cam followers is converted into rolling friction through an internal rolling bearing, thereby significantly reducing motion resistance and improving transmission accuracy. This component transmits motion through rolling contact between the outer ring and the cam surface, combining load support and guidance functions. It is widely used in automation equipment, machine tools, and packaging machinery in scenarios requiring high-frequency reciprocating motion or complex trajectory following. Its structural design must take into account contact stiffness, wear resistance, and rotational flexibility to meet the dynamic response requirements under different operating conditions. In transmission systems that achieve low-friction sliding fit, cam followers are often used in combination with dedicated guide rails or grooves. This has led to a cam follower sliding device based on a composite mechanism of rolling contact and sliding guidance. This device can further improve motion smoothness and system life by optimizing the matching relationship between the contact interface.

[0003] The existing cam bearing follower sliding devices generally have dust-proof performance defects, and their structural designs are generally not equipped with dust removal mechanisms, which leads to the formation of a dust adhesion layer on the surface of the guide rail assembly after long-term operation of the equipment. Especially in the areas where the two sides of the track and the sliding parts cooperate, particulate pollutants in the environment will gradually accumulate due to equipment vibration and lubricant adsorption, forming an adhesive oil impurity layer. This pollutant accumulation phenomenon is particularly significant on the vertical guide surface and the lateral limit structure. As the service cycle extends, abnormal dust accumulation will change the original fitting clearance of the guide rail pair, causing technical problems such as nonlinear increase in sliding resistance and motion jamming. In severe cases, it will directly cause positioning deviation of the cam drive mechanism or failure of the actuator. For this purpose, a cam bearing follower sliding device is provided.
