Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of linear module technology, and in particular to a closed linear module. Background Technology
[0002] Linear modules have several names, such as linear modules, Cartesian coordinate robots, and linear slides. They are automation upgrade units following linear guides, linear motion modules, and ball screw linear transmission mechanisms. They can achieve linear and curvilinear motion of loads through the combination of various units, making the automation of light loads more flexible and the positioning more accurate.
[0003] Currently, when using traditional linear modules, the linear slider needs to slide in a straight line on the surface of the guide rail. However, the linear slider is usually exposed to the outside. Since the track on which the linear slider runs is also exposed on the outside, dust in the air will adhere to the surface of the guide rail after long-term use. When the linear slider slides on the surface of the guide rail, the dust on the guide rail surface can easily enter the interior of the linear slider, affecting the normal use of the linear module. Furthermore, the dust on the surface of the guide rail affects the smoothness of the linear slider's sliding. Utility Model Content

[0023] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.
[0024] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a closed linear module, including a mounting base 1 and a guide rail surface cleaning device. The top of the mounting base 1 is fixedly connected to two support frames 2, and the top of the two support frames 2 is fixedly connected to a guide rail 3. A slide table 4 is slidably mounted on the surface of the guide rail 3. Mounting blocks 5 are fixedly connected to both ends of the slide table 4. The two mounting blocks 5 are slidably mounted on the surface of the guide rail 3. The guide rail surface cleaning device includes two sponge wipes 6, four positioning cylinders 8, and a sealing cover plate 9. The two sponge wipes 6 are slidably mounted inside the mounting blocks 5. The four positioning cylinders 8 are fixedly connected inside the mounting blocks 5. Two positioning holes 7 are opened on the surface of each of the two sponge wipes 6. The four positioning cylinders 8 are slidably connected inside the four positioning holes 7 respectively. The sealing cover plate 9 is slidably mounted inside the mounting blocks 5. The two mounting blocks 5 have the same structure installed inside.
[0025] When in use, this enclosed linear module is supported by two support brackets 2 on the top guide rail 3. At this time, the slide 4 can slide left and right on the surface of the guide rail 3. When the slide 4 slides left and right on the surface of the guide rail 3, it can drive the two mounting blocks 5 to slide left and right on the surface of the guide rail 3. Since the two mounting blocks 5 are equipped with sponges 6, when the mounting blocks 5 slide left and right, they can drive the sponges 6 to slide left and right to clean the dust attached to the surface of the guide rail 3. After the sponges 6 have cleaned the dust off the surface of the guide rail 3, when the slide 4 slides on the surface of the guide rail 3, it can prevent the dust on the surface of the guide rail 3 from entering the interior of the slide 4, thereby preventing dust in the air from adhering to the surface of the guide rail 3 and preventing dust on the surface of the guide rail 3 from entering the interior of the slide 4. This ensures the normal use of the linear module and keeps the surface of the guide rail 3 clean, improving the smoothness of the slide 4 sliding on the surface of the guide rail 3.
[0026] The sealing cover plate 9 has two sliding grooves 10 inside, and a slider 11 is slidably connected inside each of the two sliding grooves 10. A spring 12 is fixedly connected to the surface of the slider 11, and the end of the spring 12 away from the slider 11 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove 10. A pull block 13 is fixedly connected to the surface of the slider 11 and is slidably connected inside the sealing cover plate 9. A through hole 14 is opened on the surface of the pull block 13. Two fixed shafts 15 are fixedly connected to the surface of the slider 11. The ends of the two fixed shafts 15 away from the slider 11 slide through the interior of the sealing cover plate 9 and extend to the outside. Two fixed round holes 16 are opened at both the front and rear ends of the mounting block 5. The ends of the two fixed shafts 15 away from the slider 11 are slidably engaged inside the two fixed round holes 16 respectively.
[0027] When the sponge 6 needs to be replaced after prolonged use, the operator can slide the two pull blocks 13 relative to each other. The operator can also insert their fingers into the through-hole 14 to slide the pull blocks 13, improving ease of use. The two pull blocks 13 slide, causing the two sliders 11 to slide and compress the two springs 12. The two springs 12 provide a counter-force to the two sliders 11, causing the two sliders 11 to slide relative to each other and move the four fixed shafts 15 out of the four fixed round holes 16, thus releasing the fixing effect on the sealing cover 9. Finally, the operator can slide the sealing cover 9 out of the mounting block 5 to complete the disassembly. Slide the sponge 6 and move it out of the mounting block 5. The sponge 6 slides and causes the positioning cylinder 8 to move out of the positioning hole 7. The worker takes out a new sponge 6 and slides it into the mounting block 5, so that the two positioning cylinders 8 slide into the two positioning holes 7. The two positioning cylinders 8 can position the sponge 6, ensuring that the sponge 6 can stick tightly to the surface of the guide rail 3, preventing the sponge 6 from deforming and improving the cleaning effect of the sponge 6 on the surface of the guide rail 3. Finally, the worker installs the sealing cover 9 inside the mounting block 5 to complete the replacement of the two sponges 6, which improves the convenience of the worker to replace the sponge 6.
