Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of linear guide rails, and more particularly to a linear guide rail with convenient ball replacement. 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. Common linear guides rub against each other during use, shortening their service life. In addition, replacing structural components is cumbersome, increasing processing difficulty.
[0003] For example, announcement number CN207879855U discloses a convenient ball-changing ball linear slide, which includes a slide rail body, a slider body and end plates arranged at both ends of the slider body. A ball load channel is provided between the slide rail body and the slider body, and a ball return channel is provided on the end plate. The ball load channel and the corresponding ball return channel are connected at both ends through a transition channel to form an annular circulation channel.
[0004] It can be seen from the above-mentioned public scheme that the balls are quickly replaced through the set structural components such as the ball load channel, ball entry channel, ball exit channel, circulation channel, ball storage groove, sliding baffle and rotating plate. However, its structural components are relatively cumbersome and troublesome to process, which increases the processing difficulty and thus increases the cost. In addition, the balls inside the slider will contact and squeeze each other inside the ball load channel, thereby accelerating the wear of the balls and shortening the service life of the balls. Utility Model Content
[0005] In response to the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a linear guide rail for easy replacement of ball bearings. The linear guide rail for easy replacement of ball bearings can avoid mutual contact and wear of the balls during the movement of the slider through the limit plate set on the slider body and the ball groove set on the limit plate, thereby effectively extending the service life of the balls. In addition, the limit groove and positioning part set can facilitate the rapid disassembly and replacement of the balls on the inner side of the limit plate, which not only has high replacement efficiency but also has a simple structure, reducing the processing difficulty.
[0006] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions.
[0007] The cam is provided with a groove for sliding the guide rail to move the guide rail forward, and the groove for sliding the guide rail is provided with a toothed groove, and the toothed groove is provided with a toothed groove, and the toothed groove is provided with a toothed groove, and the toothed groove is provided with a toothed groove.
[0008] Furthermore, a countersunk hole is provided at one end of the slider body, and a positioning ring is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the insertion rod. The surface of the positioning ring is in contact and extrusion with the inner wall of the countersunk hole. The positioning ring is made of elastic rubber. The positioning ring can fix the insertion position of the insertion rod by elastic force, thereby facilitating the installation and disassembly of the insertion rod.
[0009] Furthermore, four symmetrical scrapers are provided on the inner side of the slider body. The cross-sectional shape of the scraper is semicircular. A gap of less than one millimeter is left between one end of the scraper and the inner wall of the guide groove. The scraper has a limiting function and can automatically scrape off dirt in the guide groove during movement.
[0010] Furthermore, an adsorption head is provided at one end of the insertion rod, and the adsorption head is made of a strong magnet. The surface of the adsorption head is magnetically adsorbed and connected to the inner wall of the positioning groove. The adsorption head can fix the insertion position of the insertion rod through magnetic adsorption force, which facilitates the installation and disassembly of the insertion rod.
[0011] Furthermore, one end of the socket is connected to the positioning groove, and the other end of the socket is connected to the countersunk hole. The socket, positioning groove and countersunk hole are coaxial, and the socket, positioning groove and countersunk hole are easy to plug and cooperate with the positioning piece, thereby facilitating the installation and disassembly of the limit plate, and further facilitating the rapid replacement of the ball.
[0012] Furthermore, the positioning ring is in the shape of a circular ring, and the outer diameter of the positioning ring is larger than the inner diameter of the countersunk hole. The positioning ring can be squeezed through the countersunk hole to generate a compressive elastic force.
[0013] Furthermore, the height dimension of the boss is the same as the depth dimension of the socket, which is convenient for limiting the limiting plate and will not affect the support of the ball bearing on the slider body.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are:
[0015] This solution uses the limit plate provided on the slider body and the ball groove provided on the limit plate to prevent the balls from contacting and wearing each other during the movement of the slider, effectively extending the service life of the balls.
[0016] This solution facilitates the rapid disassembly and replacement of the balls on the inner side of the limiting plate by providing the limiting grooves and positioning pieces, which not only has high replacement efficiency but also has a simple structure and reduces processing difficulty.
