[0039] Further, as shown in Figure 3 The following preferred technical solutions are provided:
[0040] The nut seat 501 is internally provided with a circulating channel matched with the sliding ball 502. The circulating channel is used to guide the sliding ball 502 to circulate and roll in the nut seat 501. The purpose of this design is to ensure that the movement track of the sliding ball 502 in the nut seat 501 is stable and continuous, avoid the phenomenon of jamming and blocking of the ball during movement, reduce the wear and energy loss of the ball, and form a dynamic circulating system in the nut seat 501 through the circulating channel, so that the sliding ball 502 can continuously participate in the transmission process, effectively prolong the service life of the ball screw pair, and also help to maintain the long-term stable transmission accuracy.
[0041] Working principle: when it is necessary to adjust the pre-tightening force of the ball screw pair, the external control system sends an instruction to the servo motor 302, and the servo motor 302 accurately rotates by a certain angle according to the instruction. The output shaft drives the transmission rod 303 to rotate through the spline connection, the transmission rod 303 transmits power to the fixed screw 4 through the shaft coupling 304, so that the fixed screw 4 produces corresponding rotary motion. Since the nut seat 501 is in threaded connection with the fixed screw 4, the rotation of the fixed screw 4 will cause the nut seat 501 to displace along the axial direction. At this time, the position of the nut seat 501 can be further fine-tuned by rotating the fixing nut 503, so as to accurately change the contact pressure between the sliding ball 502 and the fixed screw 4 and the nut seat 501, and realize the accurate adjustment of the pre-tightening force. When the ball screw pair is working normally, the rotation of the fixed screw 4 drives the sliding ball 502 to roll in the circulating channel of the nut seat 501, so that the nut seat 501 moves linearly along the axial direction of the fixed screw 4, thereby efficiently and accurately converting rotary motion into linear motion, meeting the demand of the equipment for high-precision linear motion.
