Due to its small friction resistance, ball screw is widely used in various industrial equipment. Ball screw consists of screw body, screw sleeve, cannula, ball, lubrication block, oil chamber, sealing plug, lubrication ball, cotton rope. When the ball screw is in use, the screw body is driven to rotate by the drive mechanism. , the screw sleeve is limited by the limiting mechanism, so that the screw sleeve moves linearly on the screw surface, and the ball slides between the screw sleeve and the screw body. The ball circulates in the screw sleeve with the help of the insert tube. When lubricating the screw body, pull out the sealing plug, pour the lubricant into the oil chamber of the lubrication block, and then insert the sealing plug. Then when the screw sleeve moves, the cotton rope sucks in the lubricating oil and contacts the lubricating balls, thereby applying the lubricating oil to the lubricating balls, so that the lubricating balls apply the lubricating oil to the rolling track on the surface of the screw body, thereby achieving self-lubrication of the ball screw.

A pull rope 24 is fixedly connected to the right end of the positioning rod 22. The pull rope 24 runs through the bottom plate 21. A sealing mechanism 25 for sealing is provided between the bottom plate 21 and the lubricating block 6. Through the disassembly component 2, when it is necessary to clean the lubricating oil residue at the bottom of the oil chamber 8, the pull rope 24 is pulled to separate the positioning rod 22 from the lubricating block 6 and retract it to the bottom plate 21. The bottom plate 21 is then separated from the lubricating block 6 by the spring 23 being compressed. Then, the worker can use the brush 32 to clean the bottom plate 21. After cleaning, the bottom plate 21 is fixed to the lubricating block 6. The bottom plate 21 and the lubricating block 6 are sealed by the sealing mechanism 25, so as to achieve the effect of cleaning the residue at the bottom of the oil chamber 8 as comprehensively as possible.

Through the pumping mechanism, the airbag 253 in the mounting groove 251 is bulged, so that the sealing ring 252 is pushed to be inserted into the lubricating block 6, and an air groove 254 is opened at the lower end of the bottom plate 21, and an air pipe is fixedly connected between the airbag 253 and the air groove 254. An air pumping piston 255 is arranged on the inner wall of the air groove 254, and a push rod 256 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the air pumping piston 255. The push rod 256 is pushed and pulled reciprocally to move the air pumping piston 255, thereby inflating the air groove 254, and pumping the gas into the airbag 2 through the air pipe. 53, so that the airbag 253 is inflated, and then the push rod 256 is fixed by the fixing mechanism, and when it is necessary to retract the sealing ring 252 into the mounting groove 251, the push rod 256 is separated from the air groove 254, so that the airbag 253 is obliquely inflated and thus deflated, and the sealing ring 252 is retracted into the mounting groove 251, and the lower end of the push rod 256 is threadedly inserted with a screw 257, and the screw 257 is threadedly inserted into the bottom plate 21, and the screw 257 is turned to make it threadedly connected with the bottom plate 21 and the push rod 256, and a one-way valve is installed at the lower end of the inflation piston 255. By setting the one-way valve, the external gas can enter the air groove 254, but not vice versa.
[0031] Reference Figure 4As shown, in this embodiment: the cleaning component 3 includes a grooved block 33 detachably connected to one side of the lubricating block 6, the inner wall of the grooved block 33 is slidably connected to the mounting block 31, and the right side of the mounting block 31 is fixedly connected to the brush 32. When rolling on the rolling track on the screw body 1, the lubricating block 6 moves, causing the grooved block 33, so that the brush 32 on the mounting block 31 moves, and the brush 32 contacts the screw body 1, thereby cleaning. A spring 2 34 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting block 31, and the other end of the spring 2 34 is fixed to the grooved block 33. By setting the spring 2 34, the mounting block 31 is squeezed so that the brush 32 fully contacts the surface of the screw body 1.
[0032] Working principle:
[0033] When the ball 11 screw is in use, the screw body 1 is driven to rotate by the driving mechanism, and the screw sleeve 4 is limited by the limiting mechanism, so that the screw sleeve 4 moves linearly on the screw surface, and the ball 11 slides between the screw sleeve 4 and the screw body. The ball 11 circulates in the screw sleeve 4 with the help of the cannula 5. When lubricating the screw body 1, the sealing plug 7 is pulled out, and the lubricant is poured into the oil chamber 8 of the lubricating block 6, and then the sealing plug 7 is inserted. Then, when the screw sleeve 4 moves, the cotton rope 10 sucks in the lubricating oil and contacts the lubricating ball 9, so that the lubricating ball 9 is smeared with lubricating oil. The lubricating ball 9 applies the lubricating oil to the rolling track on the surface of the screw body 1, thereby achieving self-lubrication of the ball 11 screw. When it is necessary to clean the lubricating oil residue at the bottom of the oil chamber 8, pull the pull rope 24 to separate the positioning rod 22 from the lubricating block 6 and retract it into the bottom plate 21, so that the spring 23 is compressed, and then the bottom plate 21 is dragged to separate from the lubricating block 6. Then the worker can clean the bottom plate 21 with a brush 32, and after cleaning, install and fix it in the lubricating block 6, and seal the bottom plate 21 and the lubricating block 6 through the sealing mechanism 25, thereby In order to completely clean the residue at the bottom of the oil chamber 8 as much as possible, push and pull the push rod 256 back and forth to move the pumping piston 255, thereby pumping air into the air groove 254, and pumping gas into the air bag 253 through the air pipe, so that the air bag 253 bulges, so that the push seal ring 252 is inserted into the lubricating block 6, thereby sealing between the bottom plate 21 and the lubricating block 6, and then screwing the screw 257 to make the bottom plate 21 and the push rod 256 threaded connection, fix the push rod 256, and when it is necessary to retract the seal ring 252 into the installation groove 251, the push rod 25 6 is separated from the air groove 254, so that the airbag 253 is obliquely inflated and thus deflated, and the sealing ring 252 is retracted into the mounting groove 251. By setting a one-way valve, external gas can enter the air groove 254, but vice versa. When rolling on the screw body 1, the lubricating block 6 moves, so that the grooved block 33 moves, and the brush 32 on the mounting block 31 moves, and the brush 32 contacts with the screw body 1 for cleaning. By setting a spring 2 34, the mounting block 31 is squeezed, so that the brush 32 fully contacts with the surface of the screw body 1.
