V. New description: [New technical field] This creation is based on a miniature linear motion module. [Prior Art] "In order to be able to have a limited number of balls τ, (4) Linear motion module holding, "々 operation" is generally achieved by setting the square wire of the ball return channel. Lee • With the ball return channel, the ball can be Each time the relative movement with the carriage is completed, it is returned to the line between the linear and the slides to continue its function. However, in the case of miniature linear motion modules, it is often difficult to directly Drilling processing on the slider body invisibly improves the difficulty and cost of the ball return channel. Figure 1 is a cross-sectional view of a conventional micro-linear motion module. Please refer to Figure 1, The micro linear motion module 1 includes a linear track 11, a lunar seat 12 and a plurality of balls 13. The linear channel 11 is provided with a track groove 111, and the inner side of the slide 12 is provided with an inner return groove 121, which are collectively _ The inner return passage R of the ball is operated. The slide 12 includes a slide body 122 and a return seat 123. Two return passages 124 are disposed on both sides of the return base 123, and the balls 13 sequentially pass through the return guide on the end cover. Leading curve After the outer return passage 124 and the outer return passage 124, it is possible to return to between the linear guide u and the slide 12. In the above structure, although the slide body 122 made of metal has sufficient resistance against the ball impact and the weight of the load bearing object. Rigidity and strength, but the plastic molded reflow seat 123 often suffers from wear or cracking. Heavier 5 M409323 It is necessary that the thickness t from the inside to the outside of the carriage body 122 must be greatly reduced due to the design of this structure. Therefore, after the heat treatment, the slider body 122 is liable to generate a large amount of deformation, resulting in excessive noise during operation, serious or even stall or loss of stability. The thickness t of the body 122 is reduced, which affects the rigidity and strength of the overall sliding seat 12, and reduces the bearing capacity of the miniature linear motion module 1. Although the prior art attempts to improve the miniature linear motion module, in order to solve the above problems, Still failing to provide a better design, especially in terms of stability, often there is a detachment or sway between the component and the component, so that Therefore, how to provide a micro-linear motion module has a better structural design, so as to provide a slider body with better rigidity on the one hand, which increases load carrying capacity and operational stability, and transmits components. The mutual cooperation reduces the noise generated by the fault, and at the same time strengthens the fixing ability, avoids the reduction of the proper ratio of the joints of the components due to detachment and shaking, and even the danger of use. It has become one of the important topics. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a miniature linear motion module having a relatively large thickness from the inside to the outside of the slider body to provide better rigidity, thereby effectively increasing the overall load carrying capacity and operational stability. Another object of the present invention is to provide a miniature linear motion module which is configured by inter-element interaction and M409323 of fixed-function components to reduce the noise generated by the fault and enhance the fixing capability. To avoid detachment and sway between components, resulting in a lower proper rate and even use Danger. In order to achieve the above object, a miniature linear motion module according to the present invention includes a linear guide, a slide and a plurality of balls. Linear orbits have multiple lanes. The slider slides on the linear track and includes a slider body, a plurality of reflow elements, and a two-end cover. The inner side of the slider body has a plurality of inner return grooves corresponding to the track grooves, and the inner return groove and the track groove together constitute a plurality of inner return channels. The outer side of the slide body corresponding to the inner return groove has a plurality of outer return grooves. The plurality of reflow elements are respectively coupled to the outside of the slider body. Each of the reflow elements has a return flow, and the return flow and the corresponding outer return flow together form an outer return passage. The end caps are respectively disposed on both end faces of the slider body, and each of the end caps is respectively provided with a return flow guiding groove correspondingly engaged with the inner return passage and the outer return passage. The balls circulate in the inner return passage, one of the return guide grooves, the outer return passage, and the other return guide groove. In an embodiment of the present invention, at the junction of each of the outer return passages and the return guide groove, the return member has a projection and the end cap has a recess. The protruding portion is installed in the recessed portion. Wherein, the joint between the protruding portion and the concave portion is substantially free of a gap. In one embodiment of the present invention, each of the reflow elements has a locating projection, and each of the end caps has a locating recess corresponding to the locating projection. The positioning convex portion is not installed in the positioning concave portion. In an embodiment of the present invention, the miniature linear motion module further includes a fixing member, and the sliding seat is sleeved on the fixing member. Wherein, each end cap has a groove, 7 M409323 and the fixing member is installed in the groove. Preferably, the fixing member has a plurality of positioning portions corresponding to the reflow members, and the positioning portions respectively connect the reflow members. In one embodiment of the present invention, the micro linear motion module further includes two dustproof members coupled to the slider body and the fixing member. The fixing member has two first engaging portions, and the dustproof members respectively have a second engaging portion. When the dustproof member is coupled to the fixing member, the second engaging portion is engaged with the first engaging portion. In an embodiment of the present invention, at least one of the end caps has an oil injection hole and an oil supply passage, and the oil supply passage communicates with at least one of the oil injection hole and the return flow guide groove. According to the above description, a miniature linear motion module according to the present invention forms an external return channel by means of assembling the reflow element and the slider body, instead of the conventional drilling process, so that the inner side of the slider body is The outer side has a large thickness, thereby providing better rigidity and strength, and effectively increasing the overall bearing capacity and operational stability of the module. In addition, based on the above structure, the present invention is more suitable for providing a fixing member, and through the cooperation with the groove of the end cover, for example, the purpose of clamping the return element on the sliding seat body by the front and rear ends, thereby avoiding the movement in the micro linear motion. When the module is in operation, the problem of the reflow or sloshing of the return element occurs, which affects the proper rate of the device and even causes danger of use. Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a novel design of a miniature linear motion module to improve the problems encountered in conventional structures in various ways. In detail, according to the micro-linear motion module of the present invention, since the slider body has a thick wall thickness, not only the rigidity and the strength are improved, but more importantly, the amount of thermal deformation generated after the heat treatment is also significantly reduced. The problems of past noise or poor operation have been improved. In addition, due to the elimination of the drill hole, the M409323 process technology that easily causes the wall surface to form a gap, and the assembly design of the component joints, the micro-linear linear module can provide a ball-free environment with no break.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment, the two portions of the track grooves 211 & and 2ub can be formed by grinding together in the same section, and the embossing groove 211 is formed in the drawing embryo compared with the prior art. After only partially processing the channel 2m, this embodiment can provide higher precision and avoid the problem of excessive residual interference or excessive interference when the end cover dustproof member (described in detail later). Since in the following description, both the functions of 211a and 2m are the same as the surface of the ball in contact, and the ruthlessness, θ / , and the confusion are not avoided, the sum of the two σ knives a, 211 b of the track groove will be hereinafter. The description continues with the obstruction slot 211. Dl The micro-linear motion module shown in Figure 2 is in the section line AA = no, only to make the pipe structure clearly visible, the ball 22 is not on the right side of the figure, and the left side is broken, and the shoulder is the same as Q" The bead 22 is temporarily removed. Please refer to the "4" in the same time. In this embodiment, the inside of the slider body 23 has a corresponding reflow inside the two track grooves 211, and two inner recirculation grooves M409323 • 231 and the two track grooves 211 together form two inner return channels R!, and the outer side of the slide body 23 is also provided with two outer return grooves 232 according to the corresponding relationship. Again, the track groove of the present creation is emphasized. 211, the number of inner recirculation grooves 231 and outer recirculation grooves 232 is not limited, and only need to have a corresponding relationship with each other. In other words, in the case where the number of each other can correspond, the other number of settings is also included in the present creation. In general, the slider body 23 is a metal member. Therefore, in the embodiment, the inner recirculation groove φ 231 and/or the outer reflow groove 232 can be fabricated by, for example, but not limited to, a grinding process. Process, due to the grinding process step It can be carried out after the heat treatment step, so that the accuracy of the inner return groove 231 and the outer return groove 232 due to thermal deformation can be avoided. Moreover, the structure of the slide body 23 of the present invention is compared with the conventional drilling process. The inner return groove 231 and the outer return groove 232 can be polished not only in one working stage, but also in the entire surface of each return groove during processing, so that the groove surface formed is substantially without a gap and the surface Better roughness allows the ball 22 to roll up. It is important to note that the substantial unbroken® difference in this creation is to cover some of the errors caused by machining, assembly accuracy or other external factors. Referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 simultaneously, the reflow elements 24 are respectively coupled to the left and right outer sides of the slider body 23. In this embodiment, the connection of each reflow element 24 and the carriage body 23 can be coupled by a card or a card. The method of joining, bonding, locking, fitting, or a combination thereof is achieved, and is performed by the left and right sides of the slider body 23 toward the center. The reflow elements 24 in this embodiment respectively correspond to the outer reflow grooves 232 11 M409323. And have The recirculation tank 241, and each of the recirculation tanks 241 and the corresponding recirculation tank 232 respectively constitute an outer recirculation passage R2. In other words, in the present embodiment, there are two recirculation grooves 241 and two outer recirculation grooves 232. Two outer recirculation channels are formed. However, the number of reflow grooves 241 on a single reflow element 24 is not intended to be limited by the author. Instead, in the case of a corresponding relationship, two reflow elements are provided, for example, on one reflow element 24. In addition, in the present embodiment, the material of the reflow element 24 can be, for example, a plastic, and is an integrally formed member produced by injection molding, so that the surface of the reflow groove 241 can also reach a level without a gap. Of course, the material and the manner of preparation of the reflow element 24 can be other than those which can achieve the same effect, such as metal parts and grinding processing, and the application is not particularly limited. The end caps 25 are respectively disposed on the both end faces 233 of the slider body 23, and in detail, the end caps 25 are coupled to the both end faces 233 by, for example, screwing in the longitudinal direction of the slider body 23. Each of the end caps 25 has a return guide groove 251 which is engaged with the inner return passage R! and the outer return passage R2, respectively. In the present embodiment, each of the end covers 25 is provided with a return guide groove 251 which is coupled to the inner return passage and the outer return passage R2, respectively, on the left and right sides. Specifically, the return guide groove 251 is a substantially U-shaped curved groove, and can be matched with a return flow groove 242 provided on the reflow element 24 to guide the ball 22 away from the inner return passage R! The return passage R2, or the guide ball 22, exits the outer return passage R2 and enters the inner return passage Rj. Additionally, in other embodiments of the present invention, to enhance the ability to guide the ball 22, the return guide slot 251 and/or the return bend 242 may further include a plurality of 12 M409323 flow guides (not shown). Referring to FIG. 4, in the present embodiment, since the conventional reflow base is not required, the position of the outer recirculation groove 232 can be moved outward to the outermost surface of the carriage body 23, so that the inner reflow is performed. There is a large distance d between the channel core and the outer return channel R2 (ie, there is a large distance d between the outer recirculation groove 2 3 2 and the inner recirculation groove 2 3 i), and at the same time, the radius of gyration of the ball 22 is indirectly increased. The problem that the ball 22 interferes with the passage due to the small radius of gyration r is reduced. As can be seen from the above, since the inner reflow tank 231 and the outer reflow tank 232 are fabricated by _grinding, there is no known problem of misalignment of the borehole, and the effect of heat treatment deformation can be effectively reduced, and the plastic is made. The reflow element 24 is easy to control the effect of molding by the mold, so that when the carriage body 23, the reflow element 24 and the end cover 25 are combined, the wall including the inner return passage Ri, the outer return passage R2 and the circulation path of the other portions is maintained. Appropriate smoothness 'reduces noise or pause accidents during operation, improves micro-linear motion mode, and 2 is stable. In addition, since the inner recirculation groove 1 is made by grinding, the space required for the drilling process can be saved, and the radius of rotation r' of the ball 22 is increased to reduce the mutual interference between the ball 22 and the passage, and the other can be reduced. Noise and the advantages of being suitable for operation at high speeds.
