Ball slide way

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE: To obtain the ball slide way which can be supported slidably on the head of a machine tool by using balls for increasing load capacity and installing the ball retainer which prevents balls from being dropped when a working table is drawn- out. CONSTITUTION: A bracket 11 is formed so as to enclose the guide part 13 which is formed on a machine tool body. A pair of ball slides 12 are fixed on the bracket 11. The ball retainers 15 and 19 which rotatably hold balls 16 are interposed between the guide part 13 and the bracket 11. The ball 16 rotates while circulating between the lower guide groove 24 and the upper guide groove 21. COPYRIGHT: (C)1982,JPO&Japio
