Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of linear guide equipment with adjustable pre-pressure, in particular to a linear guide with adjustable pre-pressure. Background Technique
[0002] In order to improve the rigidity of the linear guide and eliminate the gap between the guides, it is often necessary to adjust the pre-pressure on the linear guide. The utility model patent with the patent application number CN202222044901.3 discloses a linear guide with adjustable pre-pressure. By adjusting the locking screws of the expansion sleeve mechanism at both ends of the locking slider, the two expansion sleeve mechanisms move inward synchronously, so that the wedge blocks in the expansion sleeve mechanism contact and squeeze the wedge grooves of the bead seats in the bead track mechanism, causing the bead track mechanisms on both the left and right sides of the linear guide to move synchronously towards the linear guide direction, eliminating the gap between the linear guide and the slider caused by wear of the balls and bead tracks, and enabling the linear guide to maintain the set pre-pressure, precision and rigidity. The utility model can make the linear guide maintain the pre-pressure and good rigidity set at the factory for a long time through multiple adjustments of the expansion sleeve mechanism, and can maximize the service life of the linear guide. According to the disclosed technical solution, when the existing linear guide with adjustable pre-pressure is in use, on the one hand, after the pre-pressure adjustment work is completed, the adjustment screw rod is prone to rotate due to vibration during work, resulting in a change in the pre-pressure, which is not conducive to ensuring the stability of the linear guide work. On the other hand, when adjusting the pre-pressure, it is often only possible to roughly adjust the work, which is not conducive to ensuring the accuracy of the pre-pressure adjustment, and at the same time, it is easy to have inconsistent pre-pressures on both sides, which is not conducive to ensuring the smooth rotation of the balls in the guide, thereby increasing the moving resistance of the linear guide.
[0003] Therefore, how to design a linear guide with adjustable pre-pressure has become the problem we need to solve currently. Content of the Utility Model
[0004] Aiming at the deficiencies of the existing technology, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a linear guide with adjustable pre-pressure to solve the problems raised in the above background technology. The utility model is reasonably designed and is more convenient to use, and is suitable for the pre-pressure adjustment of the linear guide.
[0005] To achieve the above object, the present utility model provides the following technical solution: A linear guide rail with adjustable pre-pressure, comprising a guide rail and a ferrule. A moving component is installed inside the ferrule. The moving component includes a ball seat and balls. Further, an extrusion component is installed inside the ferrule. The extrusion component includes a movable plate and a wedge plate. A pre-pressure adjusting mechanism is installed on the movable plate. The pre-pressure adjusting mechanism includes a lead screw. Protective components are installed at both ends of the ferrule. The protective components include a bayonet and a rubber plate. A locking component is installed on the rubber plate. The locking component includes a clamping plate and a card slot.
[0006] Further, the ferrule is sleeved outside the guide rail. The ball seats are respectively clamped on both sides of the guide rail. A ball channel is opened inside the ball seat. The balls are installed inside the ball channel. One side of the ball passes through the ball channel and extends to the outside of the ball seat. One side of the ball is clamped on the outer side of the guide rail.
[0007] Further, the movable plates are respectively installed inside both sides of the ferrule. The wedge plate is integrally formed on the movable plate. Inclined surfaces are opened at both ends of the ball seat. One side of the wedge plate is clamped on the inclined surface. The other side of the wedge plate is clamped on the inner wall of the ferrule.
[0008] Further, a pressure sensor is installed inside the inclined surface through a bolt. The pressure sensor is clamped on one side of the wedge plate. A display screen is installed on the outer side of the ferrule through a bolt. The display screen is connected to the pressure sensor through an electric wire.
[0009] Further, the lead screw is respectively installed at both ends of the ferrule through bearings. One end of the lead screw is installed outside the ferrule. The other end of the lead screw is installed inside the movable plate.
[0010] Further, external threads are opened on the outer side of the lead screw. Internal threads are opened inside the movable plate. The external threads are matched with the internal threads.
[0011] Further, the bayonets are integrally formed inside both ends of the ferrule. The clamping plates are integrally formed on the outer side of the rubber plate. The clamping plates are clamped inside the bayonets. The outer side of the rubber plate is clamped on the inner wall of the ferrule. The rubber plate is sleeved outside the guide rail.
[0012] Further, the card slots are opened inside the rubber plate. Internal tooth threads are opened on the inner wall of the card slots. External tooth threads are opened on the outer side of one end of the lead screw. The internal tooth threads are sleeved outside the external tooth threads.
[0013] Beneficial effects: 1. When the linear guide rail with adjustable pre-pressure is in use, after the adjustment of the pre-pressure is completed, the clamping plate on the rubber plate is clamped inside the clamping openings at both ends of the clamping sleeve, and the rubber plate is sleeved on the outer side of the guide rail. The rubber plate is used to prevent foreign impurities from entering the inside of the clamping sleeve, ensuring the working safety of the linear guide rail. At the same time, the internal tooth pattern in the card slot is tightly clamped on the outer side of the external tooth pattern on the lead screw, preventing the lead screw from rotating when subjected to vibration, thereby ensuring the stability of the adjusted pre-pressure and preventing the generation of gaps between the balls and the guide rail due to the loosening of the lead screw, ensuring the working stability of the linear guide rail.
[0014] 2. When the linear guide rail with adjustable pre-pressure is in use, first pry the rubber plate from the inside of both ends of the clamping sleeve, and rotate the lead screw with the aid of tools. The lead screw pushes the movable plate through the thread, and the movable plate drives the wedge plate to move. Then, the inclination of the wedge plate is used to squeeze the inclined surface of the ball seat, thereby adjusting the pre-pressure of the ball seat on the guide rail. The extrusion pressure generated by the wedge plate on the pressure sensor is displayed through the display screen, and the value of the adjusted pre-pressure can be intuitively known, improving the accuracy of the pre-pressure adjustment. At the same time, it can be known through the display screen whether the pre-pressures at both ends of the ball seat are balanced, avoiding the situation of one end being large and the other end being small, so as to ensure that the balls can roll smoothly inside the ball seat and prevent the resistance of the linear guide rail from increasing due to the inability of the balls to roll smoothly.
