[0002] In mechanical engineering, bushings are one of the key components used to reduce friction between rotating or reciprocating parts. Traditional bushing designs rely on external lubrication systems, such as oil pumps and grease guns, to provide the necessary lubrication to reduce wear and ensure smooth operation. However, this reliance on external lubrication has some inherent problems: first, it increases system complexity because additional equipment is required to maintain lubrication; second, continuous lubrication may lead to excessive use of lubricant, resulting in resource waste and increased costs.

[0018] The present invention is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments: Figures 1-5 A self-lubricating sleeve comprises a sleeve body 1, wherein the sleeve body 1 is provided with a plurality of holes 2, wherein the holes 2 are used for placing lubricating parts, and movable friction beads 4 are provided in the holes 2, wherein the friction beads 4 can lubricate the sleeve.
[0019] Specifically, a plurality of holes 2 are provided on the sleeve, the holes 2 pass through the sleeve, and the friction beads 4 are provided in the holes 2. The friction beads 4 move at the heads of the holes 2 and partially protrude from the inner surface of the sleeve body 1, that is, the diameter of the holes 2 is smaller than that of the friction beads 4 to prevent them from escaping therefrom.
[0020] In production practice, the lubrication requirements of the sliding shaft 3 sliding in the shaft body are different. In high-precision equipment, the sliding shaft 3 needs to be lubricated when it reaches 80% of the preset value, but some equipment only needs lubrication when it reaches 50% of the preset value. Continuous oil supply is a large cost burden.
[0021] Therefore, the friction beads 4 are provided with a plurality of hollow areas 5 for changing the friction force, and the hollow areas 5 are grooves. The more grooves there are, the greater the friction between the friction beads 4 and the sliding shaft 3 will be. Therefore, when the friction between the sliding shaft 3 and the friction beads 4 is small enough, the sliding shaft 3 will only press the friction beads 4 down and will not drive them to rotate, so the sliding shaft 3 is not continuously supplied with oil.
[0022] At the same time, a lubricating part is provided in the hole 2, and the lubricating part includes a tube body 7. The front end of the tube body 7 includes a cavity for placing the lubricating paste 6. At the same time, a thread is provided on the outside of the tube body 7. The thread can be rotatably connected to the hole 2 to facilitate its disassembly and assembly. At the same time, one end of the friction bead 4 is embedded in the lubricating paste 6.
[0023] At the same time, a channel is provided at the bottom of the tube body 7, and an elastic part is provided at the bottom of the tube body 7 in the channel. The elastic part includes a contact rod 9 and a spring 8. The contact rod 9 is slidably arranged in the tube body 7. At the same time, a spring 8 is provided in the channel and connected to one end of the contact rod 9. The other end of the contact rod 9 is against the friction bead 4.
[0024] When the friction between the sliding shaft 3 and the sleeve body 1 becomes larger, the sliding shaft 3 drives the friction beads 4 in the sleeve body 1. Therefore, after the friction beads 4 rotate, the friction beads 4 on the other side covered with lubricating paste 6 are brought out, thereby achieving lubrication.
[0025] When different numbers of grooves are used for equipment with different precisions and different lubrication levels are required for equipment, only when the friction between the friction beads 4 and the sliding shaft 3 is greater than the required threshold value, the friction beads 4 rotate to lubricate the sliding shaft 3 to achieve cost savings.
[0026] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit the same. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments can still be modified, or some of the technical features thereof can be replaced by equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present invention.
