Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mechanical seals, in particular to a dustproof and waterproof system involving a slide module. Background Art

[0002] In the fields of mechanical automation and precision manufacturing, slide modules are key components for achieving precise displacement and positioning. Their performance and stability are crucial to the operation of the entire mechanical system. Slide modules typically consist of linear rails, sliders, lead screws, nuts, and other components. These components require good lubrication and a clean environment during operation to ensure high precision and long life. However, in practical applications, slide modules often face complex and changing operating conditions, especially the intrusion of contaminants such as drifting water mist and dust, which poses significant challenges to their normal operation.

[0003] Traditional dust and water-proofing measures often rely on simple shielding or sealing methods, but these methods often suffer from poor sealing and ineffective protection. Especially in environments with high humidity or high dust content, traditional dust and water-proofing measures struggle to effectively prevent the intrusion of mist and dust, leading to contamination of the internal grease of the slide module, which in turn affects its operating accuracy and lifespan. Furthermore, some traditional dust and water-proofing structures can increase the complexity and maintenance costs of mechanical systems, hindering their long-term stable operation.

[0004] Therefore, how to design a dustproof and waterproof system that can effectively prevent the intrusion of water mist and dust while maintaining the operating stability and accuracy of the slide module has become an urgent problem to be solved in the current field of mechanical sealing technology.

[0026] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0027] Example 1:

[0028] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a dustproof and waterproof system involving a slide module includes a frame 1, and a dustproof and waterproof cover is installed on the frame 1 at a position corresponding to the slide module 2. The dustproof and waterproof cover includes a first sealing part 3 and a second sealing part 4 relatively installed on both sides of the slide module, wherein an opening area for movement of the slide module is designed between the first sealing part and the second sealing part, and a zipper structure 10 is installed between the first sealing part and the second sealing part at a position corresponding to the opening area, and the slide module performs a zipper-like movement at the opening area.

[0029] The zipper structure 10 comprises a first zipper portion and a second zipper portion that interlock with each other, mounted on a first sealing portion and a second sealing portion, respectively. By designing the first and second zipper portions to interlock with each other and mounting them on the first and second sealing portions, dynamic sealing is achieved during the movement of the slide module. This design not only ensures a reliable seal but also ensures a smooth transition of the dustproof and waterproof cover during movement, reducing friction and wear and extending its service life.

[0030] Furthermore, the first zipper portion includes multiple independent tooth units 6 that fit together, while the second zipper portion includes an integral zipper tape 7 with tooth grooves that match the tooth units. The protruding portion of the tooth units is T-shaped, which allows the zipper to close more tightly and effectively prevents the intrusion of water mist and dust. The T-shaped design of the tooth units also enhances the bite force and improves the sealing performance.

[0031] Both the first and second sealing sections include an accordion cover 5, which is arranged along the movement direction of the slide module. The design of the accordion cover allows the dustproof and waterproof cover to freely expand and contract during the movement of the slide module, maintaining a good seal. The accordion cover structure also enhances the flexibility and durability of the dustproof and waterproof cover.

[0032] The accordion cover 5 is evenly distributed with raised strips 8, and the bottom of the slide module is equipped with a slot portion 9 that seals with the raised strips, further improving the sealing performance of the dustproof and waterproof cover. This design not only prevents the intrusion of water mist and dust through the gap, but also enhances the stability between the dustproof and waterproof cover and the slide module, ensuring the smooth movement of the slide module.

[0033] The accordion cover and zipper are integrally molded, simplifying the structure of the dustproof and waterproof cover and improving its overall strength and stability. This design also facilitates production and installation, reducing costs. Furthermore, the integrated design reduces gaps at the joints, further improving sealing performance.

[0034] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as illustrative and non-restrictive, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims, not the foregoing description, and all variations within the meaning and range of equivalents of the claims are intended to be encompassed within the present invention. Any reference sign in a claim should not be construed as limiting the claim to which it relates.
