[0002] As precision transmission components, ball screws are widely used in machinery manufacturing, automation equipment, and precision instruments. They achieve efficient, low-friction linear transmission through the rolling motion of balls between the screw and nut. However, during ball screw operation, the performance of the supporting bearings directly impacts the accuracy, rigidity, and service life of the entire transmission system.
[0003] Currently, there are a variety of ball screw support bearing designs on the market. These designs, through specific structural designs, achieve stable support for the bearing on the ball screw, improving transmission accuracy and rigidity.

At this time, one end of the screw 3 passes through the bearing housing 2, and then rotate the thread limit block 18 to achieve threaded installation of the thread limit block 18 inside the threaded groove 17 to complete the locking. When grease needs to be injected for maintenance or care, rotate the sealing bolt 10 off the threaded tube 9, and then inject grease into the inside of the threaded tube 9. The grease then flows downward to the inside of the rectangular housing 8, and finally enters the inside of the square groove, and then flows to the inside of each flow channel 7, and finally flows to the inside of the ball mounting groove 11 for lubrication.
