循環溝を内周面に形威した外輪に。
Regarding mechanical elements incorporated in linear moving mechanisms such as machine tools, in more detail, it is an outer ring with vertically or horizontally symmetrical ball circulation grooves formed on the inner circumferential surface.

のせ、該保持器を内方に撓わませた状態で組み込むボー
ルスプライン許多角軸用保持器に関する。
Relating to a cage for a polygonal shaft with a ball spline, in which a predetermined number of balls are mounted on vertically or horizontally symmetrical cages each manufactured at an angle α slightly larger than the angle α at the time of assembly, and the cage is assembled with the cage bent inward. .

Generally used ball splines for spline shafts with different cross-sectional diameters include a casing type in which the balls are directly incorporated into the main body, and a caged type in which a retainer is used.

保持器を使用しないケージレスタイプはケージの部分だ
けパーツが少なくなるので、コスト低減に役立つが組立
て分解にさいし、ボールが本体から離脱し易く1点検修
理などが面倒である。
The cageless type, which does not use a cage, has fewer parts for the cage, which helps reduce costs, but the balls tend to come off from the main body during assembly and disassembly, making one-time inspections and repairs cumbersome.

これに対し、保持器にてボールを案内するタイプはボー
ルの回転半径は小さいため、負荷から無負荷へのころが
り抵抗が大きく、スムーズに循環せしむることか困難で
あると同時に組み込みが面倒であるなどの欠点を有する
On the other hand, in the type where the balls are guided by a cage, the rotation radius of the balls is small, so the rolling resistance from loaded to unloaded is large, making it difficult to circulate smoothly and making installation difficult. It has some disadvantages such as:

本考案の目的は、軌道溝(軌道面)に接触する面積を点
接触タイプ(ボールブツシュタイプ)から線接触方式に
変えたことにより、これによって。
The purpose of this invention is to change the area that contacts the raceway groove (raceway surface) from a point contact type (ball bush type) to a line contact type.

角軸周の保持器を提供することにある。
It can carry all the loads that are applied in the radial direction (all directions) of the bearing, and because the contact area between the balls and raceway grooves is large, it has about 13 times the load-bearing performance compared to ball bushings, and it also has low frictional resistance on the sliding parts. It is an object of the present invention to provide a cage with a ball spline and a polygonal shaft circumference that can be made several tenths smaller than a sliding type.
