Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ball screw pair technology, specifically to end-plug type large lead micro ball screw pair. Background Technology
[0002] End-plug type large lead miniature ball screw pair is a specially designed ball screw with high speed, low noise, high load capacity and high reliability. It is widely used in many fields. It can convert rotary motion into linear motion or vice versa. Therefore, the ball screw pair is both a transmission component and a component that converts linear motion into rotary motion. Ball screw pairs are often used in CNC production workshops. Because the working environment of CNC production workshops is relatively harsh, a lot of dust can easily adhere to the screw during the operation of the ball screw pair. The dust enters the ball return device and affects the normal use of the ball screw pair.
[0003] In related technologies, existing methods for dust prevention in ball screw assemblies typically involve scraping dust and debris from the inner wall of the screw thread grooves using scrapers or brushes. However, since the outer surface of the screw contains lubricating oil, it forms grease when in contact with dust. When scraped off with a scraper, the grease tends to adhere to the scraper, which over time affects the normal dust prevention effect of the ball screw assembly. To address this, we propose an end-plug type large-lead micro ball screw assembly. Utility Model Content

The two ends of the connecting pipe are respectively fixed inside the two adjacent air intake pipes. An opening is provided on the circumferential surface of the connecting pipe. A fixing pipe is fixed inside the opening. Compressed air is injected into the interior of the four air intake pipes by setting the air guiding assembly.
[0010] Furthermore, the connecting assembly includes a connecting hose and a one-way valve. The two fixed pipes are connected by the connecting hose, and two corresponding one-way valves are installed on the circumferential surface of the connecting hose.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This end-plug type large lead micro ball screw pair has the following advantages:
[0014] 1. By setting up a cleaning component, two scrapers will move along the thread groove of the lead screw as the ball returner moves along the lead screw. During this movement, the dust inside the thread groove of the lead screw can be cleaned. After cleaning, the oil stains caused by dust in the thread groove of the lead screw can be prevented from affecting the movement of the ball returner.
[0015] 2. By setting up an air injection component, after the two scrapers clean the thread grooves of the lead screw, the two electric telescopic rods are controlled to retract. The retraction of the two electric telescopic rods causes the two scrapers to move downwards. At this time, the two connecting blocks will clean the front and rear sides of the two scrapers. After cleaning, the air pump is started to inject compressed air into the interior of the two connecting pipes through the air outlet pipe. The air entering the two connecting pipes is blown into the interior of the four air guide holes, and then sprayed through the four oblique pipes onto the oil stains adhering to the front and rear sides of the two connecting blocks. In this way, the two connecting blocks can be cleaned, which facilitates the subsequent cleaning of the two scrapers, making it extremely convenient. Attached Figure Description
