Definitions
- the invention relates to a roller bearing for a linear movement of a support body along a guide rail, consisting of pairs of circumferential roller bodies, which are supported on raceways of the support body and the guide rail, the support body having on each of its two end faces a head piece with areas deflecting the roller bodies and at least one head piece is provided with a channel for supplying lubricant to the rolling elements.
- Such a roller bearing is previously known from DE-PS 01 20093.
- roller bearing for a linear movement, consisting of a support body which is arranged on a rail so as to be longitudinally displaceable via four pairs of rotating rows of roller bodies.
- the end faces of the generic roller bearing are closed by a head piece.
- a channel for supplying lubricant to a row of the rolling elements is provided in at least one of these head pieces. This channel is supplied with lubricant via a control line and a grease nipple.
- a disadvantage of the roller bearing shown here is that the channel for supplying lubricant in the head piece does not have any valve-like closures or openings at its outlet openings and, moreover, cannot lie against the support body in a completely sealing manner due to unevenness in the head piece, as a result of which undesirable lubricant losses occur is to be expected.
- This loss of lubricant leads to increased minimum relubrication quantities on the roller bearing and, in the worst case, can lead to the desired lubricant film being torn off and thus increased wear and premature loss of function of the roller bearing mentioned above.
- the arrangement and design of the lubricant channels shown cannot guarantee an even and reliable supply of the desired lubrication points of the rolling bearing in the various installation positions, i.e. a lack of lubricant is to be expected first of all at those sections of the lubricant channels that either run from a central channel to Supply of lubricant are furthest away or are formed in an area arranged opposite to the direction of gravity.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of creating a rolling bearing of the type described at the outset, in which the disadvantages indicated have been eliminated and in which, in particular, only minimal relubrication quantities are required, regardless of the mounting position of the rolling bearing, for uniform and reliable lubricant supply to the rolling elements. are borrowed.
- this object is achieved in that a separate lubricant line with radial openings for the exit of the lubricant is inserted into the channel of the head piece.
- this separate lubricant line By means of this separate lubricant line, the head piece on the supporting body is sealed against the emerging lubricant.
- the amount of relubrication required can be considerably reduced through the openings in the form of valves, since only lubricant is conveyed through the openings under pressure and thus the lubricant is prevented from flowing out under the influence of gravity.
- this supply of lubricant according to the invention is independent of the installed position of the rolling bearing, even if low-viscosity oil is used as the lubricant.
- the lubricant line has an essentially U-shaped cross section and, with its longitudinal side forming an opening, rests on the support body via contact surfaces.
- a production of such a U-shaped lubricant line is easy to manage in terms of manufacturing technology, and assembly with a relevant head piece also poses no problems.
- the lubricant line is formed from an elastic and / or polymeric material.
- the lubricant line is also advantageous to form the lubricant line from a lightweight material.
- the total mass of the rolling bearing according to the invention is only minimally increased by this material, the aforementioned ones also being able to be included.
- the contact surfaces of the lubricant line bearing against the support body are designed as double-elastic sealing lips which merge into single-lip elastic sealing lips for the areas of desired exit points for the lubricant.
- the elasticity of the single-lip sections of the sealing lip is chosen so that the sealing lip releases a sufficient opening cross-section for the required transfer of lubricant when lubricant is required on the side of the rolling elements and at the same pressure conditions on the side of the lubricant line and the side of the rolling elements in remains in its central position, ie remains closed, and thus prevents an undesired flow of lubricant. It is expedient, as described in claim 6, that the areas of exit points of the lubricant line are each arranged in a track area of the carrier body.
- This training in conjunction with the aforementioned measures, guarantees minimal lubricant consumption, i.e. that is, the lubricant is only supplied to the place where it is needed.
- the radial openings of the lubricant line are designed as slots, which are each located in a raceway area of the support body.
- the lubricant line has a substantially annular cross section.
- the claim 9 describes that the lubricant line is provided with slots arranged obliquely to its axial line, which are located in the raceway areas of the support body.
- Figure 1 is a plan view of a rolling bearing according to the invention.
- Figure 2 is a sectional view taken along the line II-II of Figure 1;
- FIG. 3 shows a view of a lubricant line with a double elastic sealing lip
- FIG. 4 shows a sectional view along line IV-IV of FIG. 3,
- FIG. 5 shows a view of a lubricant line with an annular cross section
- Figure 6 is a sectional view taken along the line VI-VI of Figure 5.
- FIG. 1 shows a plan view of a roller bearing 1 according to the invention.
- This consists of a support body 2.
- linearly moving components can be arranged via screw connections 3.
- the above-mentioned support body 2 is supported over pairs of circumferential rolling bodies 4, which are supported on raceways 5, 5a of the support body 2 and a guide rail 6. moved * stored.
- the support body 2 is closed on its end face 7 by a head piece 8, in this case made of plastic.
- the head piece 8 has regions 9 that deflect the rolling elements 4.
- At least one head piece 8 is provided with a channel 10 for supplying lubricant via a lubricating nipple 11 and a control line 12 to the rolling elements 4.
- a separate lubricant line 13 is inserted in the channel 10 of at least one head piece 8.
- the lubricant line 13 has a U-shaped cross-section and, with its longitudinal side forming a radial opening 14, lies against the end face 7 of the support body 2 via double-elastic sealing lips 15.
- the lubricant line 13 is designed as a single-lip sealing lip 16.
- Lubricant is pressed into the lubricant line 13 via a lubricating nipple 11 (see FIG. 1) and a control line 12.
- This lubricant is distributed in a cavity 18, which builds up an excess pressure in the lubricant line 13 when lubricant is added.
- This overpressure causes the single-lip sealing lip 16 to yield due to its elasticity.
- the lubricant can now exit at the areas of desired exit points for lubricant in the vicinity of the rolling elements 4 until the excess pressure is reduced to such an extent that the single-lip sealing lip 16 is closed again, ie the pressure of lubricant in the lubricant line 13 is similar to that Pressure of lubricant on the side of the rolling elements 4. Since the roller bearing 1 is sealed on all sides, the lubricant remains in the lubricant line 13 until a next lubrication pulse again increases the pressure in the lubricant line 13 and the process is repeated.
- FIG. 3 shows a view of a lubricant line 13 with double-elastic sealing lip 15.
- the structure of this is similar to that described in FIGS. 1 and 2.
- the double-elastic sealing lip 15 rotates completely on the long side 20 of the lubricant line 13.
- slots 21 serve for the targeted supply of lubricant to the raceways 5, 5a of the roller bearing 1 (see FIGS. 1 and 2).
- FIG. 3 A sectional view along the line IV-IV of FIG. 3 can be seen from FIG. It can be seen that the lubricant line 13 is formed from a plastic.
- the lubricant line 13 is also provision for the lubricant line 13 to be provided with an annular cross section 22. It is advantageous to form this lubricant line 13 according to the invention with slits 23 arranged obliquely to the axial line of the lubricant line 13. These slots 23 are in turn arranged in the region of the raceways 5, 5a of the rolling elements 4. Reference numbers 1 and 1
