[0021] In order to more clearly illustrate the overall concept of the present invention, a detailed description is given below in combination with the accompanying drawings by way of examples.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the embodiment of the present utility model provides a linear guide rail for CNC machine tools with adjustable preload, comprising a guide rail body 1, a slider 2 being slidably connected to the bottom of the guide rail body 1;

[0023] The inner wall of the slider 2 is provided with an adjustment mechanism, and the adjustment mechanism includes a movable plate 10, a guide wheel 9, a through slot 8, a fixed rod 7 and a mounting plate 6. Four through slots 8 are opened at the bottom of the slider 2, and four movable plates 10 are slidably connected to the top of the inner wall of the slider 2, wherein the bottoms of the two movable plates 10 are fixedly installed with mounting plates 6, and the bottom ends of the two mounting plates 6 are fixedly installed with fixed rods 7 that are interlaced with the through slots 8, and the bottom ends of the four fixed rods 7 are fixedly installed with guide wheels 9 that are slidably connected to the guide rail body 1.

[0024] Specifically, a motor 3 is fixedly mounted on the top of the inner wall of the slider 2 , and a bidirectional screw rod 4 is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the motor 3 . The motor 3 drives the bidirectional screw rod 4 to rotate, and the rotation of the bidirectional screw rod 4 drives the moving blocks 5 to move toward each other.

[0025] Specifically, the bottom of the two mounting plates 6 are fixedly installed with moving blocks 5, and the two moving blocks 5 are threadedly connected to the bidirectional screw rod 4. The moving blocks 5 move toward each other, driving the mounting plates 6 to move toward each other, which will drive the guide wheel 9 and the guide rail body 1 to be better clamped, thereby playing a pre-load adjustment role.

[0026] Specifically, four limiting grooves 12 are opened on the top of the inner wall of the slider 2, and the inner walls of the four limiting grooves 12 are slidably connected with limiting blocks 11 fixedly connected to the movable plate 10. The limiting grooves 12 limit the limiting blocks 11, and the limiting blocks 11 limit the moving movable plate 10.

[0027] Specifically, two spring columns 13 are fixedly installed in the middle of the bottom of the slider 2, and the bottom ends of the two spring columns 13 are fixedly installed with guide plates 14. The guide plates 14 are fixed by the spring columns 13, and the guide plates 14 slide in the guide grooves 15 to play a guiding role.

[0028] Specifically, a guide groove 15 is formed on the top of the guide rail body 1 , and the guide groove 15 is adapted to the guide plate 14 , and the guide plate 14 is guided by the guide groove 15 .

[0029] Working principle: When the pre-pressure needs to be adjusted, the starting motor 3 drives the bidirectional screw 4 to rotate, which will drive the moving block 5 to move toward each other, and drive the mounting plate 6 to move toward each other. At this time, the guide wheel 9 is driven to move toward each other through the fixed rod 7, and engaged with the guide rail body 1. At this time, the distance between the guide rail body 1 and the guide wheel 9 can be adjusted, and the pre-pressure can be adjusted. At the same time, when the mounting plate 6 moves, it drives the moving plate 10 to move, which will drive the limit block 11 to move in the limit groove 12, and limit it when it moves. At the same time, the guide plate 14 is engaged with the guide groove 15, and the slider 2 can be guided during subsequent movement. Therefore, the slider 2 can guide it when it moves, and can adjust the pre-pressure of the guide rail body 1.
