Abstract

PURPOSE:To make each radius of spiral grooves largely takable, by installing a first spiral groove and a mounting groove in a retainer, and attaching a retainer core, forming a second spiral groove almost orthogonal with the first spiral groove, to the mounting groove. CONSTITUTION:Each of retainers 27 is attached to both ends of a ball slide part 9. A first spiral groove 28 or a circular spiral groove connecting both ends of a first load guide groove 19 and a first non-load guide groove 24 is formed in this retainer 27 at a tilt of 45 deg.. Likewise, a mounting groove 29, shallower than this first spiral groove 28, is formed in the retainer 27 in a sense orthogonal with the first spiral groove 28. Inside the mounting groove 29, there is provided a retainer core 31 where a second spiral groove 30 to be crossedly orthogonal with the first spiral groove 28 is formed. A first ball circulating passage is formed by the first load guide groove 19, the first non-load guide groove 24 and the first spiral groove 28, and a second ball circulating passage is formed likewise.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention Conventionally, the ball circulation path of a ball slideway was formed in two stages, upper and lower, on one side of the guide part, and each ball circulation path consisted of a loaded guide groove, an unloaded guide groove, and these guide grooves. and a turning groove that connects the ends of each other. The load guide groove and the no-load guide groove are arranged in the vertical direction. For this reason, the vertical dimension increases with the formation of the ball circulation path, and the height dimension of the machine tool increases. Further, machine tools are sometimes subject to certain restrictions regarding the overall height and the height of the work table, making it difficult to freely increase the distance between the load guide groove and the no-load guide groove. This makes it difficult to increase the turning radius of the turning groove, which impairs the smooth transfer of the ball in the turning groove.

In such a configuration, one work table 7 is connected to the guide part 2.
When installed in the load guide groove 19.23, the ball 34 located in the load guide groove 19.23 is pressed against the inner circumferential surface of the guide groove 13.14 and the inner circumferential surfaces of the guide grooves 5 and 6. There is. On the other hand, no load is applied to the ball 34 located in the unloaded guide groove 16.24 and the pivot groove 28.30, and the ball 34 is maintained in an unloaded state. When the work table 7 is slid, the balls 34 are guided by the guide grooves 5, 6, 13, 14, etc. and roll, and the ball 34 is moved from the load guide 1ll19, 23 through one of the turning grooves 28, 30. The ball 34 moves into the ball circulation path 32.3 in such a way that it moves into the unloaded guide groove 24.16 and circulates again through the other pivot groove 28.30 to the loaded guide groove 19, 23.
3, the work table 7 is slidably supported on the bed 1, and the work table 7 slides smoothly. In addition, even if force is applied to the work table 7 from the lateral direction, the balls 34 are engaged with the upper and lower two rows of guide grooves 5 and 6 on both sides of the guide portion 2, and the work table 7 can be held securely. It is carried out in

After inserting the required number of balls 34, the lower retainer 12 and the bottom seal 26 are attached to the bracket 7 to complete the ball circulation path 32.3.
The operation of inserting the ball 34 into the interior of the ball 34 is completed.

Effects of the Invention The present invention provides a retainer that is attached to both ends of the ball slide part as described above, and a first pivot groove and a mounting groove are formed in this retainer, and the retainer is provided with a first pivot groove and a mounting groove that crosses the first pivot groove. By attaching the retainer core with the substantially orthogonal second turning groove formed to the mounting groove, it is possible to easily form two turning grooves in the retainer, and the height and width of the ball slide part can be easily formed. This has the effect that the turning radius of the turning groove can be increased without increasing the dimensions.

A guide part with a rectangular cross-section in which a concave part with a pair of upper and lower inclined surfaces that expands outward is formed on both left and right sides along the longitudinal direction is fixed on the bed, and the upper surface of this guide part and both left and right sides are fixed to the bed. A bracket surrounding the surface is fixed to the lower surface of the work table, a guide groove is formed in the slope along the longitudinal direction of the slope, a ball slide part is provided in the bracket facing the recess, and the ball slide A pair of upper and lower load guide grooves facing the guide grooves and a pair of upper and lower non-load guide grooves substantially parallel to these load guide grooves are formed in the part, and retainers are provided to be attached to both ends of the ball slide part, A first arc-shaped turning groove is formed in this retainer, connecting the end portions of one of the load guide grooves and one of the non-load guide grooves at an inclination of approximately 45° with respect to the horizontal plane. A mounting groove shallower than the first turning groove is formed, and a circle that connects the ends of the other load guide groove and the other no-load guide groove and is substantially orthogonal to the first turning groove in a cross-shaped manner. A ball slideway characterized in that a retainer core in which an arc-shaped second turning groove is formed is attached to the attachment groove.
