Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ball screw linear slide technology, and more specifically, it relates to a ball screw linear slide. Background Technology
[0002] In existing ball screw linear slide technology, the cleaning and maintenance of the lead screw is a crucial aspect, directly impacting the slide's performance and lifespan. However, existing ball screw linear slides have certain shortcomings in dust and impurity protection, posing safety hazards in practical applications.
[0003] First, existing ball screw linear slides often fail to adequately consider dust and impurity protection in their design. During actual use, the lead screw is easily intruded by dust or impurities, which can lead to wear, jamming, or malfunction. Because existing equipment lacks effective dust protection measures, such as poor sealing or the absence of protective covers, the lead screw is easily affected by the external environment during use, thus reducing the safety of the slide.
[0004] Secondly, existing ball screw linear slides present certain difficulties in installation and maintenance. Because the lead screw is susceptible to dust and impurities, it requires regular cleaning and maintenance. However, existing equipment may not have considered ease of cleaning and maintenance during installation; for example, the lead screw may be difficult to disassemble or clean, or necessary maintenance tools and accessories may be lacking. This makes cleaning and maintenance difficult for operators, increasing operational complexity and time costs, and may also affect the slide's performance and lifespan. Utility Model Content

[0028] Please see Figure 1-5 A ball screw linear slide includes a base 1, which is mounted on an external device. The base 1 has a mounting mechanism, which includes a sliding mechanism, a ball sleeve 2, a fixing plate 3, a brush 4, a fixing sleeve 5, a mounting plate 6, an insertion rod 7, a compression spring 8, and a snap-fit mechanism. The sliding mechanism is connected to the base 1 and the ball sleeve 2. The fixing sleeve 5 is fitted onto the ball sleeve 2. The brush 4 is mounted on the fixing plate 3. The mounting plate 6 is mounted on the ball sleeve 2. The insertion rod 7 is connected to the mounting plate 6. The snap-fit mechanism is connected to the insertion rod 7 and the fixing sleeve 5. The fixing sleeve 5 is slidably connected to the insertion rod 7, and the insertion rod 7 is slidably connected to the fixing plate 3. A compression spring 8 is installed, which abuts against the fixed plate 3. The locking mechanism includes a variable diameter sleeve 9 and a slider 10. The variable diameter sleeve 9 is installed inside the fixed sleeve 5. The slider 10 is slidably connected to the side wall of the variable diameter sleeve 9. A positioning rod 11 is coaxially provided on the insertion rod 7. The positioning rod 11 is slidably connected inside the fixed sleeve 5. Multiple one-way blocks 12 are provided on the slider 10. Multiple one-way sleeves 13 are provided on the positioning rod 11. The one-way blocks 12 are locked on the one-way sleeves 13. Each slider 10 is provided with a push spring 14, which abuts against the fixed sleeve 5. Each slider 10 is provided with a follower block 15. A follower sleeve 16 is slidably provided on the fixed sleeve 5. Multiple follower blocks 15 are slidably connected inside the follower sleeve 16.
[0029] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to install the corresponding fixing plate 3 and brush 4, the fixing plate 3 is first passed through the insertion rod 7, and then the fixing plate 3 is attached to the ball bearing sleeve 2. Then the brush 4 is attached to the side wall of the lead screw 19. Then the fixing sleeve 5 is slidably connected to the insertion rod 7 and pressed on the fixing plate 3 by the compression spring 8, thereby ensuring the fixation of the brush 4. When the positioning rod 11 is inserted into the slider 10, the slider 10 expands backward on the variable diameter sleeve 9, and then the one-way block 12 abuts against the one-way sleeve 13, thereby ensuring one-way fixation. Then the compression spring 8 applies an outward pushing force, and then the slider 10 and the positioning rod 11 form a de facto self-locking, thereby ensuring the stability of the snap-fit. When it is necessary to unconnect, the slider 10 can be expanded by sliding the follower sleeve 16, thereby releasing the snap-fit between the one-way block 12 and the one-way sleeve 13.
[0030] Please see Figure 1As one embodiment of the sliding mechanism: the sliding mechanism includes a slide rail 17 and a slide plate 18. The slide rail 17 is mounted on the base 1, the ball bearing sleeve 2 is mounted on the slide plate 18, the slide plate 18 is slidably connected to the slide rail 17, the ball bearing sleeve 2 is threaded with a lead screw 19, the lead screw 19 is rotatably connected to the base 1, and multiple brushes 4 are respectively attached to the side wall of the lead screw 19.
[0031] More specifically, after the installation of the fixing plate 3 is completed, the brush 4 is attached to the lead screw 19. When the slide plate 18 slides along the slide rail 17, the brush 4 slides along the lead screw 19 to clean the lead screw, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the lead screw 19.
[0032] In summary, when the overall equipment is in use or operation: when it is necessary to install the corresponding fixing plate 3 and brush 4, firstly, the fixing plate 3 is passed through the insertion rod 7, and then the fixing plate 3 is made to fit against the ball bearing sleeve 2. Then, the brush 4 is fitted against the side wall of the lead screw 19. Then, the fixing sleeve 5 is slidably connected to the insertion rod 7 and pressed against the fixing plate 3 by the compression spring 8, thereby ensuring the fixation of the brush 4. When the positioning rod 11 is inserted into the slider 10, the slider 10 expands backward on the variable diameter sleeve 9, and then the one-way block 12 abuts against the one-way sleeve 13, thereby ensuring one-way fixation. Then, the compression spring 8 applies an outward pushing force, and then the slider 10 and the positioning rod 11 form a de facto self-locking, thereby ensuring the stability of the snap-fit. When it is necessary to disengage, the sliding of the follower sleeve 16 can drive the slider 10 to expand, thereby disengaging the snap-fit between the one-way block 12 and the one-way sleeve 13.
[0033] After the installation of the fixing plate 3 is completed, the brush 4 is attached to the lead screw 19. When the slide plate 18 slides along the slide rail 17, the brush 4 slides along the lead screw 19 to clean the lead screw and thus ensure the cleanliness of the lead screw 19.
