Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of ball screw pairs, in particular to a ball screw pair with a lubrication function. Background Art
[0002] A ball screw, also known as a ball screw, is an ideal device for converting rotary motion into linear motion, or vice versa. It is the most commonly used transmission element in machine tools and precision machinery. Its primary function is to convert rotational motion into linear motion or torque into axial repetitive force. It combines high precision, reversibility, and high efficiency, making it widely used in various industrial equipment and precision instruments. A Chinese utility model patent (Announcement No.: CN221591672U) discloses a novel ball screw assembly structure. By providing an oil inlet pipe, an oil reservoir, a push plate, a push rod, a pressure plate, an oil inlet hole, and a top cover, lubricating oil is stored in the oil reservoir through the oil inlet hole. When lubrication is required, the pressure plate is pushed, driving the push rod to push the push plate. This push of the push plate pushes the lubricating oil in the oil reservoir through the oil inlet pipe to the ball raceway inside the nut for lubrication. This structure facilitates the addition of lubricating oil to the balls inside the nut, maintaining the efficiency of the device.
[0003] However, the above device still has some shortcomings when in use: specifically, when the oil storage cylinder is filled with lubricating oil, the pressure plate will protrude from the flange. Since the pressure plate lacks a corresponding protective mechanism, when the ball screw pair is working, the nut moves on the screw, and the push plate protruding from the nut is easily squeezed during the movement, thereby causing the lubricating oil to accidentally flow out, resulting in the waste of lubricating oil. Therefore, a ball screw pair with lubrication function is proposed to address the above situation. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to remedy the problem in the prior art that the lubricating oil may accidentally leak out and waste the lubricating oil due to the lack of a corresponding protective mechanism on the pressure plate, the utility model proposes a ball screw pair with a lubricating function.

Specifically, the movable sleeve 502 has an annular groove, and the annular plate 503 is rotatably engaged with the annular groove. A connecting rod 504 is fixed on the annular plate 503, and the end of the connecting rod 504 away from the annular plate 503 is fixedly connected to the threaded sleeve 501.
[0029] An L-shaped rod 505 is provided on the movable sleeve 502 , and a connecting plate 506 is provided on the pressing plate 403 . The connecting plate 506 has a circular hole 5060 . The L-shaped rod 505 passes through the flange 3 and fits into the circular hole 5060 .
[0030] The movable sleeve 502 is in a circular ring shape and can be made of metal material.
[0031] The flange 3 has a through hole for cooperating with the L-shaped rod 505 .
[0032] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The oil storage cylinder 401 has an oil storage cavity inside, and an oil outlet pipe 402 is provided on one side of the oil storage cylinder 401 , and the oil outlet pipe 402 is connected to the nut 2 .
[0033] The oil storage chamber is used to store lubricating oil, and the oil outlet pipe 402 delivers the lubricating oil to the nut 2 to contact the ball, thereby achieving lubrication of the ball.
[0034] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The outer wall of the oil storage cylinder 401 has an external thread, and the inner wall of the threaded sleeve 501 has an internal thread that matches the external thread.
[0035] The threaded sleeve 501 can be moved by setting the thread.
[0036] Correspondingly, the threaded sleeve 501 is in a circular ring structure and can be made of metal material.
[0037] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 The oil storage cylinder 401 has an assembly opening on the side away from the oil outlet pipe 402, and a push rod 404 is fitted in the gap inside the assembly opening. One end of the push rod 404 that penetrates into the oil storage cylinder 401 is connected to a push plate 405, and the push plate 405 is fitted in the gap with the oil storage cavity.
[0038] Specifically, the push plate 405 has a through hole, and the push rod 404 is interference-fitted with the through hole.
[0039] Among them, the assembly port is sealed to prevent lubricating oil leakage.
[0040] The pressing plate 403 has a hollow hole, and the push rod 404 is interference fit with the hollow hole.
[0041] When in use, pushing the pressure plate 403 can move the push rod 404, and then the push plate 405 can move to allow the lubricating oil in the oil storage chamber to flow out from the oil outlet pipe 402.

[0044] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 The oil inlet channel 4040 is provided with a sealing plug 406 on the side away from the push plate 405 .
[0045] The sealing plug 406 is made of rubber and is inserted into the oil inlet channel 4040 to seal the oil inlet of the oil inlet channel 4040 .
[0046] Working principle: When there is no need to lubricate the ball inside the nut 2, rotate the threaded sleeve 501 to move it to the right. The movement of the threaded sleeve 501 pushes the connecting rod 504 to move, thereby moving the movable sleeve 502. The movement of the movable sleeve 502 causes the L-shaped rod 505 to move and extend into the circular hole 5060, thereby limiting the connecting plate 506, that is, limiting the pressure plate 403, thereby avoiding the accidental outflow of lubricating oil when the pressure plate 403 moves to the left.
