Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of linear guides, and particularly relates to a linear guide with an oil filling and lubricating function. Background Art

[0002] Linear guides can be divided into three types: roller linear guides, cylindrical linear guides, and ball linear guides. They are used to support and guide moving parts to perform reciprocating linear motion in a given direction. Among them, in a ball linear guide, steel balls roll along a linear rolling track and four precision-ground rolling surfaces on a linear rolling slider; through an end cover reverser assembled on the linear rolling slider, the steel ball columns move in a cycle. The linear rolling slider uses a retaining plate to hold the steel balls, so even if the linear rolling slider is pulled out from the linear rolling track, the steel balls will not fall off.

[0003] In actual use of the existing linear guide, the slider will continuously perform reciprocating motion on the linear guide, so there will be continuous friction with the linear guide. Therefore, after long-term use of the linear guide, lubricating oil needs to be applied to the linear guide to avoid damage to the linear guide and the slider and improve the service life of the linear guide. At present, for the method of filling lubricating oil on the linear guide, manual operation is often used, that is, the operator manually applies the lubricating oil. This method requires a lot of manpower and has low efficiency. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The utility model overcomes the deficiencies of the prior art and provides a linear guide with an oil filling and lubricating function to solve the problems existing in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a linear guide with an oil filling and lubricating function, including a guide rail body and a moving slider. The moving slider moves along the length direction of the guide rail body. It also includes an oil storage block installed at the end of the moving slider. At least one oil storage flow channel is provided in the oil storage block. The oil storage flow channel is inclined as a whole. Lubricating oil is stored in the oil storage flow channel and the lower end faces the moving slider. A blocking protrusion is provided at the lower end of the oil storage flow channel. An oil inlet flow channel is provided on the moving slider. The oil inlet flow channel is communicated with the lower end of the oil storage flow channel. When the oil storage block moves along the length direction of the guide rail body with the moving slider, the lubricating oil is located in the oil storage flow channel and shakes. The lubricating oil enters the oil inlet flow channel through the blocking protrusion.

[0006] In a preferred embodiment of the utility model, the number of the oil storage blocks is two, and they are respectively installed at the ends of the moving slider and fixedly connected to the moving slider.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, a filling oil port is provided on the oil storage block to fill lubricating oil into the oil storage flow channel.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, a micro liquid level gauge is provided at the lower end of the oil storage flow channel to monitor the liquid level of the lubricating oil in the oil storage flow channel.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, the micro liquid level gauge is fixedly installed in the oil storage block.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, the blocking protrusion is an annular protrusion, and its protrusion slope is between 20° and 40°.

[0011] The present utility model solves the defects in the background technology, and the present utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] 1. The linear guide rail of the present utility model has an oil filling and lubricating function, and can automatically fill lubricating oil during the actual use of the linear guide rail, without the need for manual direct lubricating oil filling operation, effectively reducing the labor intensity of the operator, improving efficiency, and effectively enhancing the service life of the linear guide rail;

[0013] 2. The blocking protrusion can block the lubricating oil in a stable state in the oil storage flow channel. When the oil storage block moves with the moving slider, the lubricating oil in the oil storage flow channel will shake, and the lubricating oil will be led out of the blocking protrusion and enter the guide rail body through the moving slider, quickly completing the filling of the lubricating oil.

[0019] The following will disclose multiple embodiments of the present utility model with diagrams. For the sake of clear illustration, many physical details will be described together in the following narrative. However, it should be understood that these physical details are not used to limit the present utility model. That is to say, in some embodiments of the present utility model, these physical details are unnecessary. In addition, for the purpose of simplifying the diagrams, some conventional structures and components will be shown in a simple schematic manner in the diagrams.

[0020] In addition, in the present utility model, descriptions such as "first", "second", etc. are only for descriptive purposes and do not particularly refer to the order or sequence. Nor are they used to limit the present utility model. They are merely used to distinguish components or operations described with the same technical terms, and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, features defined with "first", "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of such features. In addition, the technical solutions between various embodiments can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the fact that those of ordinary skill in the art can implement them. When the combination of technical solutions results in contradictions or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present utility model.

[0021] This embodiment provides a linear guide rail with an oil filling and lubrication function. This linear guide rail with an oil filling and lubrication function can automatically perform the operation of filling lubricating oil during the actual use of the linear guide rail, without the need for manual direct lubricating oil filling operation, effectively reducing the labor intensity of the operator, improving efficiency, and effectively enhancing the service life of the linear guide rail.

[0022] Combined with Figures 1 to 3As shown in the figure, the linear guide of this embodiment includes a guide rail body 100 and a moving slider 200. The moving slider 200 moves along the length direction of the guide rail body 100. It also includes an oil storage block 10. The oil storage block 10 is installed at the end of the moving slider 200. At least one oil storage flow channel 11 is provided in the oil storage block 10. The oil storage flow channel 11 is inclined as a whole. Lubricating oil is stored in the oil storage flow channel 11 and the lower end faces the moving slider 200. A blocking protrusion 20 is provided at the lower end of the oil storage flow channel 11. An oil inlet flow channel 201 is provided on the moving slider 200. The oil inlet flow channel 201 communicates with the lower end of the oil storage flow channel 11. When the oil storage block 10 moves along the length direction of the guide rail body 100 with the moving slider 200, the lubricating oil is located in the oil storage flow channel 11 and sloshes. The lubricating oil enters the oil inlet flow channel 201 through the blocking protrusion 20. In this embodiment, the lubricating oil is stored in the oil storage flow channel 11 in the oil storage block 10. When the moving slider 200 moves, it drives the oil storage block 10 to move. The lubricating oil located in the oil storage flow channel 11 will slosh. During the sloshing process of the lubricating oil, it will cross the blocking protrusion 20 and enter the oil inlet flow channel 201 in the moving slider 200, and then enter the guide rail body 100 through the oil inlet flow channel 201, realizing the lubrication treatment of the guide rail body 100, so as to reduce the friction between the moving slider 200 and the guide rail body 100 and improve the service life of the guide rail body 100.

[0023] In this embodiment, the blocking protrusion 20 is an annular protrusion, and its protrusion slope is between 20 - 40°. Within this slope range, the lubricating oil located in the oil storage flow channel 11 will more easily cross the blocking protrusion 20 and enter the oil inlet flow channel 201 for lubricating the guide rail body 100.

[0024] Combined with Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the number of oil storage blocks 10 in this embodiment is two, and they are respectively installed at the end of the moving slider 200 and fixedly connected to the moving slider 200. A filling oil port 12 is provided on the oil storage block 10 to fill lubricating oil into the oil storage flow channel 11. When the lubricating oil in the oil storage flow channel 11 is insufficient, through the filling oil port 12 on the oil storage block 10, lubricating oil is replenished into the oil storage flow channel 11 to facilitate continuous lubrication treatment of the guide rail body 100.

[0025] In this embodiment, a micro liquid level gauge 30 is provided at the lower end of the oil storage flow channel 11 to monitor the liquid level of the lubricating oil in the oil storage flow channel 11. The micro liquid level gauge 30 is fixedly installed in the oil storage block 10. The fixedly installed micro liquid level gauge 30 can monitor the liquid level of the lubricating oil in the oil storage flow channel 11 in real time and transmit the liquid level signal to the outside for timely replenishment of the lubricating oil.

[0026] In actual use of the linear guide rail with the functions of refueling and lubrication in this embodiment, lubricating oil is filled into the oil storage flow channel 11 through the oil filling port 12 on the oil storage block 10. During the use of the guide rail body 100, the moving slider 200 will move at a high speed along the length direction of the guide rail body 100. During the movement, the lubricating oil located in the oil storage flow channel 11 will shake in the oil storage block 10. The shaking lubricating oil will cross the blocking protrusion 20, and part of the lubricating oil will enter the oil inlet flow channel 201 of the moving slider 200 and then flow to the guide rail body 100 to achieve the lubrication treatment of the guide rail body 100, so as to reduce the friction between the moving slider 200 and the guide rail body 100 and improve the service life of the guide rail body 100.
