Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of linear bearings, and in particular relates to a high-precision anti-backlash linear bearing. Background Art

[0002] Metal linear bearings are low-cost linear motion systems designed for use with cylindrical shafts with unlimited travel. They are widely used in sliding components of industrial machinery such as precision machine tools, textile machinery, food packaging machinery, and printing machinery. Because the load-bearing balls make point contact with the bearing outer casing, the balls roll with minimal friction. Linear bearings offer low friction and are relatively stable, independent of bearing speed. This allows for smooth linear motion with high sensitivity and precision. However, linear bearings do have limitations, primarily limited by their impact load capacity and poor load carrying capacity. Furthermore, they can produce high vibration and noise at high speeds.

[0003] When existing linear bearings wear out, their clearance cannot be eliminated, which increases the inner diameter clearance between the shaft and the bearing, causing vibration and noise during movement and even failure to guarantee linear accuracy, thereby shortening the service life and affecting the operating life of other components of the entire machine. In addition, the bearing structure is relatively fixed, which is not convenient for assembly and disassembly, thereby reducing maintenance efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the existing defects and provide a high-precision anti-backlash linear bearing to solve the problem proposed in the above background technology that when the existing linear bearing is worn, its clearance cannot be eliminated, so that the inner diameter clearance between the shaft and the bearing increases, thereby causing vibration and noise during movement and even failing to ensure linear accuracy, thereby shortening the service life and affecting the operating life of other components of the whole machine. In addition, the bearing structure is relatively fixed, which is not convenient for assembly and disassembly, thereby reducing maintenance efficiency.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: a high-precision anti-backlash linear bearing, comprising a bearing seat, a metal outer sleeve is arranged inside the bearing seat, an inner sleeve is fixedly connected to the inside of the metal outer sleeve, an adjustment gap is provided on one side of the metal outer sleeve and the inner sleeve, a circular fixed block is arranged inside the metal outer sleeve, a limiting groove is symmetrically arranged on one side of the bearing seat, a limiting ring is arranged inside the limiting groove, a connecting block is symmetrically fixedly connected to one side of the limiting ring, and a bidirectional threaded rod is threadedly connected to the inside of the connecting block.

[0006] Preferably, first fixing bolts are fixedly connected to the four corners of the upper end of the bearing seat.

[0007] Preferably, second fixing bolts are fixedly connected to the four corners inside the fixing block, and the second fixing bolts are fixedly connected to the metal jacket.

[0008] Preferably, balls are provided inside the fixing blocks.

[0009] Preferably, the outer side of the limiting ring is circular and fixedly connected with an elastic connecting piece, and the elastic connecting piece and the limiting groove are fixedly connected.

[0010] Preferably, the outer side of the bidirectional threaded rod is threadedly connected with a fixing nut.

[0011] Preferably, the bidirectional threaded rod and the bearing seat are rotationally connected.

[0012] Preferably, a circular sealing gasket is fixedly connected to the inner sleeve, and the sealing gasket and the fixing block are snap-fitted.

[0013] Compared with the existing technology, the utility model provides a high-precision anti-backlash linear bearing with the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. The utility model is provided with two limit rings installed inside the limit groove. The limit rings are connected to the limit groove by elastic connecting parts. The limit rings clamp and fix the metal outer sleeve and the inner sleeve. With long-term use, the inner sleeve and the shaft wear, which increases the inner diameter gap between the shaft and the bearing. By rotating the two-way threaded rod, the connecting block is threadedly connected to the two-way threaded rod, so that the distance between the two ends of the limit ring gradually becomes smaller, and the inner diameter of the limit ring becomes smaller, thereby continuing to shrink the metal outer sleeve and the inner sleeve, eliminating the gap between the shaft and the bearing, and solving the problem of increased inner diameter gap between the shaft and the bearing, which causes vibration and noise during movement and even cannot guarantee linear accuracy, thereby shortening the service life and affecting the operating life of other components of the whole machine. The operation is simple and quick, and the fixing nut limits the connecting block to ensure the stability of the connection and the better anti-backlash effect.

[0015] 2. The utility model sets a plurality of fixing blocks which are fixedly connected to the metal outer sleeve through a second fixing bolt. The ball is set inside the fixing block. The connection structure is simple, which facilitates the quick installation and removal of components such as the ball, thereby improving the maintenance efficiency of the bearing. The sealing gasket on the inner side of the inner sleeve is engaged with the fixing block, which increases the sealing environment inside the metal outer sleeve, avoids contamination of the bearing by the external environment, and improves the service life of the linear bearing.

[0016] The parts not involved in the device are the same as those in the prior art or can be implemented by using the prior art. The utility model has a scientific and reasonable structure, is safe and convenient to use, and provides great help to people. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
