Abstract

PURPOSE:To permit a plane bearing to smoothly transfer on a guide way by constituting restraint elements and a guide rail by a magnetically connected means and holding the plane bearing and the guide way in noncontact state. CONSTITUTION:Restraint elements 11a and 11b are installed onto a plane bearing 10, and an air reservoir 12 having a prescribed width is formed onto the bottom surface, and an air feeding pipe 30 is buried into a guide way 20, and an air feeding port 30a is opened onto the surface opposite to the air reservoir 12. A guide rail 21 is buried in the longitudinal direction of the guide way 20 and forms a magnet having different electrode to those of the restraint elements 11a and 11b. Therefore, air is jetted-out into the air reservoir 12 of the plane bearing 10 from the air feeding port 30a of the air feeding pipe 30, and the plane bearing 10 is floated-up from the guide way 20, and the restraint elements 11a and 11b and the guide rail 21 attract each other, and the plane bearing 10 can be transferred smoothly in the noncontact state on the guide way 20.

O is a flat bearing formed in the shape of a flat rectangular parallelepiped, lla,
llb is a pair of restrainers made of permanent magnets, which are buried facing each other near one end of both sides of the plane bearing 10 in the longitudinal direction. Reference numeral 12 denotes an air reservoir for storing air supplied from an air supply pipe 30, which will be described later, and is formed by recessing the widthwise center of the back surface of the plane bearing 10 by a predetermined width and a predetermined length along the longitudinal direction. Reference numeral 13 is formed in the shape of a substantially T-shape, and causes all of the air in the air reservoir 12 to be blown out. As a result, the plane bearing 10' (r) is a so-called surface drawing type static pressure gas bearing and exhibits bearing rigidity.

It can be used as a permanent magnet with magnetic poles different from the magnetic poles of lb. A guide rail is provided at a position facing the restrainer, and a plurality of air supply ports of the air supply pipe are opened on a surface facing the air reservoir of the plane bearing and are arranged at predetermined intervals in the direction of movement of the plane bearing. Since the restrainer and the guide rail are provided with a magnetic coupling means, air is ejected from the air supply port of the air supply pipe to the air reservoir of the plane bearing, and the plane The bearing floats above the guideway and is in a non-contact state, and the restrainer of the plane bearing and the guide wale of the guide urchin attract each other and hold the plane bearing in the guideway. It becomes possible to move around the top without contact. Therefore, it has the advantage that it is possible to provide a moving mechanism that does not generate noise or dust, and also has a small movement resistance of the plane bearing.
