DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0032] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.
[0033] Please refer to Figure 1-6 ; The present application discloses a screw assembly that is convenient for assembling a circulator: Embodiment 1:
[0034] Reference Figure 1-3A screw rod assembly convenient for assembling a circulator comprises a screw rod 1, a nut seat 2 and a ball. The screw rod 1 is provided with a spiral groove 1 3, and the nut seat 2 is provided with a spiral groove 2 4. The spiral groove 1 3 and the spiral groove 2 4 form a ball channel for placing the ball. The screw rod 1 passes through the nut seat 2, and the ball is driven to rotate by the thrust when the screw rod 1 rotates; the screw rod 1 assembly also comprises a circulator 5, and the circulator 5 comprises a limiting part and a reverse part. A groove 6 is provided on the side of the nut seat 2, and the groove 6 comprises a placement groove 61 and an empty cylinder 62, and the placement groove 61 and the empty cylinder 62 are provided. The empty cylinder 62 is connected, and the geometric shape of the placement groove 61 corresponds to the limiting part of the circulator 5, so that the limiting part can be clamped in the placement groove 61; the empty cylinder 62 corresponds to the reverse part of the circulator 5, so that the reverse part can be clamped in the empty cylinder 62; the reverse part of the circulator 5 is provided with a pipeline groove, and when the circulator 5 and the nut seat 2 are kept relatively fixed, the two end ports of the pipeline groove respectively correspond to different spiral grooves 4 of the nut seat 2, which can ensure the smooth flow of the balls in the nut seat 2 by effectively controlling the circulation path of the balls.
[0035] When the reverse portion is inserted into the empty cylinder 62, the limit portion can be inserted into the placement groove 61. At this time, the overlapped portion of the circulator 5 and the placement groove 61 is provided with a second threaded cylinder 7 and a third threaded cylinder 8, respectively. The inner walls of the second threaded cylinder 7 and the third threaded cylinder 8 are provided with internal threads. The center lines of the second threaded cylinder 7 and the third threaded cylinder 8 are colinear, and the cylinder diameters of the second threaded cylinder 7 and the third threaded cylinder 8 are the same. A bolt 9 can be used to threadably connect the second threaded cylinder 7 and the third threaded cylinder 8 to keep the circulator 5 and the nut seat 2 relatively fixed.
[0036] When in use, the operator first passes the screw rod 1 through the nut seat 2 to form a ball channel, and ensures that the ball is located in the ball channel. Subsequently, the reverse portion of the circulator 5 is aligned with the empty cylinder 62 of the nut seat 2, and the circulator 5 is placed in the groove 6 from the nut seat 2 from the outside to the inside. It is worth noting that the geometric shape of the placement groove 61 in the groove 6 is not limited. If the geometric shape of the placement groove 61 is a cylinder with a circular bottom surface, it is necessary to ensure that the second threaded cylinder 7 and the third threaded cylinder 8 are aligned. In this embodiment, the geometric shape of the placement groove 61 is a rectangular parallelepiped, so that the second threaded cylinder 7 and the third threaded cylinder 8 are easier to align. Then the bolt 9 is threadedly connected to the cylinder wall of the second threaded cylinder 7 and the third threaded cylinder 8, so as to achieve the relative fixation of the circulator 5 and the nut seat 2. After that, by manually rotating the screw rod 1 or driving the screw rod 1 with the help of a power device, the spiral groove 3 on the screw rod 1 will generate thrust, causing the ball to roll along the ball channel. When the ball rolls between the screw rod 1 and the ball channel of the nut seat 2, because its rolling friction coefficient is much lower than the sliding friction coefficient, the ball screw has a very high efficiency and can effectively convert rotational motion into linear motion. When the ball rolls to a port of the reverse part of the circulator 5, the ball will enter the pipeline groove in the circulator 5, and the circulator 5 will change the movement direction of the ball, so that it returns from one port to the other port of the reverse part, so that it continues to roll in the ball channel.
[0037] In order to improve the safety performance of the nut seat 2 and reduce damage to the surface of the nut seat 2, the side of the cylindrical fixed part of the nut seat 2 is set to be arc-shaped, so that the arc-shaped side can distribute stress more evenly and reduce stress concentration, thereby reducing the risk of material fatigue and fracture, and helping to improve the overall strength and durability of the nut seat 2. Embodiment 2:
[0038] The general structure of this embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment.
[0039] This embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that:
[0040] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 4-6 , the bolt 9 is assumed to be a first bolt 10, the first bolt 10 comprises a head 101, a first rod 102 and a second rod 103, the head 101, the first rod 102 and the second rod 103 of the first bolt 10 are fixed as a whole in sequence; the bottom area of one end of the first rod 102 facing the head 101 is smaller than the bottom area of one end of the first rod 102 facing the second rod 103, and the second rod 103 is provided with an external thread;
[0041] When the limiting part of the circulator 5 is placed in the placement groove 61, the overlapping part of the limiting part and the placement groove 61 respectively opens a limiting hole 11 and a first threaded tube 12, and the center lines of the limiting hole 11 and the first threaded tube 12 are colinear. When the first bolt 10 passes through the limiting hole 11 and the first threaded tube 12, the second rod portion 103 of the first bolt 10 is threadedly connected with the first threaded tube 12; the threaded connection between the first bolt 10 and the first threaded tube 12 is adopted, so that the screw rod 1 assembly has higher mechanical strength, can withstand greater tension, shear and torque, and enables the device to prevent loosening to a large extent, thereby ensuring the reliability of the connection.
[0042] The area of the head 101 of the first bolt 10 is larger than the aperture of the limiting hole 11 , so that after the first bolt 10 is threadedly connected with the first threaded barrel 12 , the head 101 of the first bolt 10 can keep the circulator 5 and the nut seat 2 relatively fixed.
[0043] Specifically, assuming that the circulator 5 of the screw assembly is used for a long time and the reverse part of the circulator 5 is damaged and needs to be replaced, the operator can loosen the first bolt 10 by using a tool, so that the second rod part 103 of the first bolt 10 is disconnected from the threaded connection with the first threaded tube 12, and then take out the first bolt 10, replace the damaged circulator 5 with a new circulator 5, place the new circulator 5 from the outside of the nut seat 2 in the groove 6 on the nut seat 2, align the limiting hole 11 with the barrel mouth of the first threaded tube 12, so that the limiting hole 11 is connected with the first threaded tube 12, and insert the first bolt 10. The first bolt 10 is threadedly connected to the first threaded tube 12 through the limiting hole 11. Since the bottom area of the end of the first rod portion 102 of the first bolt 10 facing the head portion 101 is smaller than the bottom area of the end of the first rod portion 102 facing the second rod portion 103, when the first bolt 10 is threadedly connected to the first threaded tube 12, the first rod portion 102 can maintain a distance from the hole wall of the limiting hole 11; after the first bolt 10 is threadedly connected to the first threaded tube 12, the head portion 101 of the first bolt 10 can press the limiting hole 11, so that the circulator 5 and the nut seat 2 remain relatively fixed.
[0044] In order to further improve the convenience of linear movement of the nut seat 2, a limiting groove 13 is opened in the limiting portion, and the limiting groove 13 is connected with the limiting hole 11. When the first bolt 10 passes through the limiting hole 11 and the first threaded tube 12 in sequence, and the second rod portion 103 of the first bolt 10 is threadedly connected with the first threaded tube 12, the head 101 of the first bolt 10 is placed in the limiting groove 13.
[0045] It is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive from any point of view, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the present invention. Any reference numeral in a claim should not be regarded as limiting the claim to which it relates.

This description of the specification is only for the sake of clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment may also be appropriately combined to form other implementations that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
