Abstract

The present invention relates to a roller chain for a linear guideway, which the roller chain comprises two elongate supporting bands arranged in the axial edge regions of rollers respectively and a plurality of binary retainers being connected to the two supporting bands. The cross section of each retainer features a hollow structure for retaining the rollers. One lateral edge portion of the retainer is opposite to a roller, and the other lateral edge portion does not contact any component. The roller chain is suitable for mass production and can prevent the rollers from skewing and impacting from each other, thus reducing noise of the linear guideway.

Furthermore, as shown in U.S. Patent No. 6,203,200, reference is made to Fig. 3, which is a prior art view of a roller and a roller connected with a combination of a front view, a side view and a top view of the combination. The illustrated connection device is corresponding to each roller. The two end faces 6 1 0 are provided with a holding portion 2 1 'with a space between two adjacent rollers 1 3 a 2 partitions 1 8 ° 3 This type of design has the following problems·· 4 ! • Roller 1 3 a and Adjacent roller workers 3 a will indirectly collide through the spacer 5. 6 2. It is necessary to have 2 〇 iron holes 在 on both ends of the roller, which consumes f processing cost, 1288213 and will reduce the strength of the roller 13 a. 3, ,,,. The device 15 itself does not have the function of storing grease. • In response to the above problems, in the pursuit of ideals, practicality and progress, we are committed to the goal of improvement. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The purpose of the two-month is to provide a roller, ^, and σ device for linear sliding, which avoids the indirect collision of two adjacent rollers through the spacer, effectively absorbs the collision force, and greatly reduces the collision force. Noise value. In order to attain the object of the present invention, the roller link device of the linear slide of the present invention comprises a plurality of spacers and two connectors, each spacer having two holding portions, which are hollow structures. Providing a retaining roller; and the spacer is formed on both sides of the roller, wherein one side of the spacer is adjacent to the roller to hold the roller, and the other side is a free end without being connected to the object. The two adjacent rollers are completely isolated; and the two connected bodies have a strip-like structure corresponding to the two ends of the roller, and the plurality of spacers described above are connected to each other. Since the present invention is an integrally formed design, a substance having a property is selected as the material. The diameter and length of the roller are respectively: and 〇, the length and height of the hollow structure of the spacer are a and b, respectively, so that the upper 1 · 0 L and b S 〇 · 8 D, and the inside of the spacer is ~, % The plane has a certain thickness, so that the spacer can hold the roller in line %, and can be produced by the general plastic molding technology. 7 1288213 Solution "Month>^Repair (sound) is replacing the page side and the roller Adjacent to keep the roller, the other side is the free end and not connected to other objects, enabling the complete isolation of two adjacent rollers. For a better understanding of the features and technical aspects of the present invention, reference should be made to the preferred embodiments of the invention, By. [Embodiment] Referring to Figure 4, the combination diagram of linear sliding, please refer to Figure 5 for a linear sliding section view, and refer to section 5Kb to include - track 1a and - slider lb, obedient = one long The workpiece in the strip is provided with a groove 1 2 for rolling the roller 2, and the block 1 ^ is a gate-type reading, and a groove is provided thereon to correspond to the ^a=groove*roller 2 It can be moved in between, in order to make the movement roller:: Shield% movement, there must be two end caps on the slider 1 b. In the two ends, the end cover 1c is provided with a roller return path ii, so that the roller can be circulated through the roller return passage 11 between the slider 1b and the groove of the road 1a. 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 The roller connecting device of the slide rail comprises: a plurality of spacers 3 1 and two connecting bodies 3 〇, each of the spacers 3 has two holding portions 3 1 1 and 3 1 2, and the holding portions 3 1 1 and 3 1 2 is a hollow structure to provide a holding roller 2; and the spacer 3 is correspondingly formed on both sides of the roller 2, wherein the spacer 3 1 - side is adjacent to the roller 8 1288213 2 to maintain the roller 2 The other side is a free end and is not connected to other objects, so that it can completely isolate two adjacent rollers 2; and the two connecting bodies 30 have a strip-like structure corresponding to the two ends of the roller 2.
