All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0023] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.
[0024] In the description of this application, it should be noted that the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly used when the product of this application is in use. They are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation on this application. In addition, the terms "first," "second," and "third," etc., are only used to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0025] Furthermore, terms such as "horizontal," "vertical," and "sag" do not imply that components must be absolutely horizontal or suspended, but rather that they can be slightly tilted.

[0027] like Figure 1-4As shown, a linear guide rail with double-row ball bearings includes a slider 1 and a rail body 2. A U-shaped groove 3 is provided in the middle of the rail body 2, and limiting grooves 4 are provided at both ends of the inner wall of the U-shaped groove 3. A first roller 5 is provided inside the limiting groove 4. A mounting post 6 is provided at the lower end of the slider 1, and a second roller 7 is provided on the mounting post 6. The first roller 5 and the second roller 7 roll in contact. An extension 8 is provided on the inner wall of the U-shaped groove 3, and the extension 8 is located at the upper end of the limiting groove 4. This invention uses a rolling connection, which reduces the friction between the slider 1 and the rail body 2. Furthermore, the rail body 2 of this invention adopts a wrap-around design, which prevents the first roller 5 from detaching from the rail body 2, thus improving transportation safety.
[0028] In this embodiment, the track body 2 is provided with a plurality of first fixing holes 9 in the middle. The first fixing holes 9 are provided with threads. The first fixing holes 9 of this utility model are used to fix the track body 2 on the machining table, and can be fixed by bolts with threads, which facilitates disassembly and maintenance in the future.
[0029] In this embodiment, the upper part of the slider 1 is provided with a plurality of second fixing holes 10, and the second fixing holes 10 are provided with threads.
