Definitions

  • the invention relates to a ball screw drive with a spindle and a nut surrounding it, provided with a fastening flange, and with balls arranged therebetween, which are arranged along a helical path, being supported in a rollable manner on raceways which are supported by one on the outer surface of the spindle and a corresponding thread groove on the inner surface of the nut are formed, and with through-openings of the nut which are connected to one another by at least one tubular arc-shaped deflection piece for the return of the balls from one end of the path to the nut Are connected at the beginning.
  • Ball screws with mounting flanges and external pipe deflection are generally known. They are used in mechanical engineering, for example in the automotive sector.
  • the nut body is usually produced by machining, but this is time-consuming and expensive.
  • the deflection piece, which connects the through openings with each other, must be secured against falling out. This can be done with additional plates screwed onto the nut. This procedure is also expensive and unsuitable for large series production.
  • the invention is based on the object of specifying a ball screw which can be economically produced in large quantities and which enables the balls to run smoothly with high efficiency.
  • the nut and the mounting flange are made in two parts and the deflection piece is arranged in a recess of the mounting flange and is held radially in this.
  • the deflecting piece is, or in the case of multi-start threads, the deflecting pieces are thus inserted into the associated through-openings and are radially secured by the subsequently mounted fastening flange.
  • the fastening flange is at least partially in the same axial position as this.
  • a fastening method can be used on the nut and the fastening flange attached thereto, as a result of which the fastening flange is held on the nut axially and in the circumferential direction.
  • a welding, gluing, soldering, caulking or a combination of several of these methods can be used as the fastening method. It is also possible to carry out the fit between the nut and the mounting flange as a press fit.
  • the fastening flange can be positively attached to the nut in an axial direction by means of a stop surface which is integrally formed on the nut.
  • the nut can also have a profile on its outer surface, in which caulked material of the fastening flange is arranged.
  • the non-hardened flange is then caulked on the outside diameter of the hardened nut, which is provided with such a specially shaped profile, in order thereby to obtain a positive connection, the high one Can transmit forces.
  • the profiling can e.g. B. Knurling.
  • the deflection piece can be arranged in the recess of the mounting flange with a radial play. In this way, the deflection piece can "breathe” a little, which favors a smooth running of the balls.
  • the nut with the thread groove can be a component produced without cutting by drawing, calibrating and / or rolling. It can consist of hardened steel. If the nut is machined, there is only a small chip volume in the manufacture of the pipe.
  • the mounting flange can be stamped from a sheet metal, preferably from sheet steel. In order to obtain exactly flat surfaces, it can be ground on both sides.
  • the deflection piece can be made in one piece or in several parts as a bent tube made of steel or plastic.
  • FIG. 1 shows a nut, a deflection piece and a mounting flange for a ball screw drive according to the invention in a side view
  • FIG. 2 shows a ball screw drive with the components according to FIG. 1 in an end view with a partial cross section
  • Figure 3 is a side view with a partial longitudinal section of the nut and the fastening flange attached thereto;
  • FIG. 4 shows the connection area of the nut and the fastening flange showing enlarged detail from Figure 3;

  • FIG. 11 shows the ball screw drive according to FIG. 9, partly in a cross section showing the outlet side of the deflection piece.
  • a ball screw according to the known prior art shown in FIGS. 9 to 11 consists of a spindle 1, a nut 2, deflection pieces 3 and balls 4 which are arranged between helical thread grooves of the spindle 1 and corresponding thread grooves of the nut 2 and are continuous are deflected by the deflection pieces 3.
  • the balls 4 cause the nut 2 to be displaced along the spindle 1.
  • the balls 4 between the spindle 1 and the nut 2 approach the end of their helical path, they become deflection pieces 3 removed from there, axially passed through the deflection pieces 3 and again at the beginning of the path discontinued.
  • the spindle 1 rotates in the opposite direction, the direction of movement of the balls, and thus that of the nut 2, is reversed.
  • Figure 9 also shows a helical area and a mounting flange 5 of the nut 2, which can be used for the installation of the ball screw.
  • a link of the ball screw for example the nut 2
  • the other link usually the spindle 1
  • the rotation of the motor in a selected direction of rotation causes the nut 2 to move along the spindle 1.
  • the deflection piece 3 is provided with a receiving finger 7, which rather extends into the screw groove which is located between the nut 2 and the spindle 1.
  • the helical path of the balls 4, shown as dashed line 8 is interrupted at a point 9 and suddenly changed to a ball path 10 which runs through the deflection pieces 3.
  • Figure 11 shows the other end of the deflection piece 3 and the way in which the balls 4 are returned to the helical groove between the spindle 1 and the nut 2.
  • the balls 4 are subject to a similarly sudden change in their direction of movement at a point 11.
  • a pick-up finger 12 which is essentially designed in the same way as the pick-up finger 7 of the deflection piece 3 shown in FIG. 10, and which when the balls 4 are reinserted into the helical path serves as a guide.
  • the pick-up finger 12 picks up the balls 4 when the spindle 1 rotates in the opposite direction.
  • a nut 13 and a fastening flange 14 are designed as two individual parts which are fastened to one another.
  • a deflection piece 15, which can be designed as a one-piece U-shaped plastic tube, or a deflection piece 16 of the same shape, which can consist of two assembled sections 17 and 18, runs with its U-web outside the nut 13 and connects two through openings mother. It also serves to return the balls 4 from the end of the helical path to the beginning thereof, like the deflection piece 3 of the known ball screw drive shown in triplicate in FIGS. 9 to 11.
  • the deflection piece 15 or 16 is held in the radial direction by the fastening flange 14, because its flange body has, in addition to a central opening 19 for receiving the nut 13, a recess 20 in which the U-web of the deflection piece 15 or 16 is arranged.
  • the mounting flange 14 is fastened to the nut 13 by caulking after the installation of the deflection piece 15 or 16. According to FIG. 4, it rests with an end face on an annular abutment surface 21 of the nut 13 and surrounds on its other end face a profile 22 incorporated into the outer surface of the nut 13.
  • caulked material 23 of the fastening flange 14 engages in the nut 13, so that the nut 13, the deflection piece 15 and 16 and the mounting flange 14 are fastened to one another and together with a spindle and filled balls 4 form a ball screw drive according to the invention.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une vis d'entraînement à billes comprenant une broche et un écrou (13) entourant cette broche et muni d'une bride de fixation (14), ainsi que des billes (4) placées entre la broche et l'écrou selon une trajectoire hélicoïdale et supportées sur des chemins de roulement de manière à pouvoir rouler. Ces chemins de roulement sont formés par une rainure de filetage située sur la face extérieure de la broche et par une rainure de filetage correspondante située sur la face intérieure de l'écrou (13). L'écrou (13) présente des trous traversants reliés par au moins une pièce de renvoi (15) en forme de coude de tuyau, qui s'étend sur la face extérieure de l'écrou (13), permettant le renvoi des billes (4) d'une extrémité du chemin à l'extrémité opposée. Selon l'invention, l'écrou (13) et la bride de fixation (14) sont conçus en deux pièces et la pièce de renvoi (15) est disposée dans un évidement (20) de la bride de fixation (14), dans laquelle elle est maintenue radialement.
