[0016] As another aspect of the embodiments of this application, the embodiments of this application provide a machine tool device, including a slider device in any of the above embodiments.

[0017] The embodiments of this application, through the assembly structure of the slider device, facilitate the installation of the slider, and by controlling the precision of each component in the slider device, the installation precision of the slider can be controlled, thereby improving the sliding control precision. This allows the slider device to be applied in scenarios with small operating space and high precision requirements.

[0018] The above overview is for illustrative purposes only and is not intended to be limiting in any way. In addition to the illustrative aspects, embodiments, and features described above, further aspects, embodiments, and features of this application will become readily apparent from the accompanying drawings and the following detailed description. Attached Figure Description

[0019] In the accompanying drawings, unless otherwise specified, the same reference numerals throughout the various drawings denote the same or similar parts or elements. These drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale. It should be understood that these drawings depict only some embodiments disclosed in this application and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this application.

[0020] Figure 1 An exploded structural diagram of a slider device according to an embodiment of this application is shown.

[0021] Figure 2 A schematic diagram illustrating a specific application scenario of the slider device according to an embodiment of this application is shown. Detailed Implementation

[0022] In the following description, only certain exemplary embodiments are briefly described. As those skilled in the art will recognize, the described embodiments can be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit or scope of this application. Therefore, the drawings and description are considered to be exemplary in nature and not restrictive.

[0023] Figure 1 An exploded structural diagram of a slider device according to an embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 1As shown, the slider device includes a slider mounting plate 121 and a slider mounting fixture. The slider mounting fixture is used to mount the slider body 310 onto the slider mounting plate 121. The slider mounting plate 121 can be one of the mounting plates 121 in the target object to which the slider is to be mounted. After the slider body 310 is mounted onto the slider mounting plate 121 by the slider mounting fixture, the slider body 310 provides a groove 3101 for the slide rail, enabling sliding. The slider device with this structure allows for convenient mounting of the slider body 310 into the target object. Furthermore, this mounting method ensures the accuracy of each contact surface in the slider device, thereby ensuring that the slider body 310 has high precision after installation, allowing for precise control of the slide rail sliding within the slider.

[0024] The slider mounting plate 121 has a first groove 301 at the preset position for mounting the slider body 310, and a through hole 302 penetrating the bottom of the first groove 301. The slider mounting plate 121 can be determined according to the target position where the slider needs to be installed. Any plate structure that needs to mount the slider body 310 can be used as the slider mounting plate 121.

[0025] In this embodiment of the application, a first groove 301 and a through hole 302 are provided at the position of the slider body 310 to be installed in the slider mounting plate 121 to facilitate the installation of the slider body 310.

[0026] The slider mounting fixture includes a shim 320 and a first connector 330. The first connector 330 is engaged in the first groove 301, the shim 320 is engaged in the through hole 302, the back of the slider body 310 is attached to the shim 320, and the slider body 310, the shim 320 and the first connector 330 are fixedly connected by threads.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, firstly, the first connector 330 is inserted into the first groove 301 and attached to the bottom of the first groove 301. The size of the first connector 330 is adapted to the size of the first groove 301. Then, a soft pad 320 is inserted into the through hole 302 from the other side of the sub-side plate. The soft pad 320 fills the through hole 302. Next, the slider body 310 is attached to the side of the sub-side plate. Then, the threads are passed through the threaded hole to assemble the various components in the slider device into one piece.

[0028] This design allows for a certain level of precision on the surface of the pad 320, and further allows for the processing of the side or bottom of the first groove 301 and the first connecting piece 330 to achieve higher precision, thus enabling the slide rail to have high precision when sliding on the slider body 310.

[0029] The embodiments of this application, through the assembly structure of the slider device, can facilitate the installation of the slider body 310, and by controlling the precision of each component in the slider device, the installation precision of the slider body 310 can be controlled, thereby improving the sliding control precision, so that the slider device can be applied to scenarios with small operating space and high precision requirements.

[0030] In one embodiment, the slider mounting fixture further includes a second connector 340 for connecting the first connector 330 and the slider body 310.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, the second connector 340 is fixedly connected to the first connector 330 and the slider body 310 by threads, thereby fixing the slider body 310.

[0032] In one embodiment, the first groove 301 is located near the side of the slider mounting plate 121, such that the first groove 301 has a structure including three sidewalls, one side being open, and the second connector 340 is attached to the open side.

[0033] The open structure facilitates the processing of the first groove 301, and also facilitates the placement of the first connector 330 within the first groove 301. It also facilitates the fixing of the second connector 340, so that the threads on the second connector 340 do not need to be inserted too deeply to achieve fixing with the first connector 330 and the slider body 310.

[0034] In one embodiment, the gasket 320 is a soft gasket 320.

[0035] In one example, the gasket 320 can be a cork gasket 320, a soft silicone gasket 320, a soft rubber screw washer 320, or a rubber gasket 320, etc.

[0036] In one embodiment, the thickness of the gasket 320 is greater than the depth of the through hole 302.

[0037] In one embodiment, the thickness of the gasket 320 is 6 / 5 to 4 / 3 of the depth of the through hole 302.

[0038] The depth of the through hole 302 is less than the depth of the first groove 301. The depth of the through hole 302 can be smaller, and the thickness of the soft pad 320 can be greater than the depth of the through hole 302, so that the soft pad 320 can protrude from the side of the sub-side plate and contact the slider body 310. Then, the first groove 301 and the slider body 310 are fixed by threads, so that the slider body 310 has elastic force when it is attached to the sub-side plate, which will bounce the slider body 310 back to contact the slide rail, thereby enhancing the stability and accuracy of the slide rail during the sliding process.

[0039] In one embodiment, a groove 3101 is provided on one side of the slider body 310 to cooperate with the slide rail; protrusions 311 are provided on the two opposite inner sidewalls of the groove 3101.

[0040] The slide rail has limiting grooves on its two opposite sides to cooperate with the protrusion 311.

[0041] Sliding is achieved through the cooperation of the slide groove 3101 and the slide rail. Furthermore, the protrusion 311 and the limiting groove cooperate synchronously to make the sliding of the slide rail more stable. That is, the sliding limit is achieved from three sides, which limits the sliding direction of the slide rail and makes the movement more stable.

[0042] In one embodiment, the bottom of the first groove 301 is provided with a first threaded hole; the first connector 330 is provided with a second threaded hole aligned with the first threaded hole. The first connector 330 and the slider mounting plate 121 are fixed by threads passing through the first threaded hole and the second threaded hole.

[0043] In one embodiment, the bottom of the first groove 301 is further provided with a third threaded hole; the gasket 320 is provided with a fourth threaded hole aligned with the third threaded hole. The gasket 320, the first connector 330, and the slider body 310 are fixed by threads passing through the third threaded hole and the fourth threaded hole.

[0044] Other configurations of the slider device in the above embodiments can be adopted from various technical solutions now and in the future known to those skilled in the art, and will not be described in detail here.

[0045] This application also provides a machine tool device, including a slider device from any of the above embodiments. The machine tool device can be a five-axis machine tool, a four-axis machine tool, a three-axis machine tool, or others.

[0046] like Figure 2As shown, the machine tool includes a saddle, on which multiple sliders need to be installed so that the spindle of the machining tool can slide along the grooves in the sliders. When the saddle has three or more sides, for example, the saddle in convex 2 includes a first mounting plate 120, a second mounting plate 121, and a third mounting plate 110. The first mounting plate 120 and the second mounting plate 121 are fixed to both sides of the third mounting plate 110. The first mounting plate 120 and the second mounting plate 121 are also fixed to the third mounting plate 110 by a triangular plate 122. Therefore, when sliders are installed on the first mounting plate 120 and the second mounting plate 121, it is difficult to obtain a high-precision mounting surface by processing the position of the slider to be installed on the first mounting plate 120 or the second mounting plate 121, making it difficult to improve the sliding accuracy of the spindle. To overcome this bottleneck, the slider device provided in this application embodiment can be used. This allows for maximizing the precision of the slider body 310, shim 320, and first connector 330 during the installation process, thereby improving the installation precision of the slider body 310, enhancing the accuracy of spindle sliding control, and achieving more refined machining. The slider in the third mounting plate 110 can also selectively employ the slider device provided in this application embodiment according to actual needs.

[0047] Other configurations of the machine tool equipment in the above embodiments can be derived from various technical solutions now and in the future known to those skilled in the art, and will not be described in detail here.
