- new lubricant is continuously supplied through an oil supply path 31 by an automatic oil supply device (not shown). That is, new lubricant is constantly supplied to the ball screw device 1.
- the lubricant already interposed between the screw shaft 4 and the nut 7 is a lubricant that replaces the lubricant that is newly supplied as the old lubricant.
- the lubricant discharged from the lubricant outlet 36 of the grease supply path 31 between the screw shaft 4 and the nut 7 is lubricated between the screw shaft 4 and the nut 7 in the axial direction on one side and the other side, and further in the circumferential direction. 1 moves to the opposite side of the agent outlet 36, that is, the lower side of the sheet of FIG. 1, and pushes the old lubricant to one side and the other side in the axial direction, and further to the opposite side to the lubricant outlet 36 in the circumferential direction. It is supplied between the ball 10 and both rolling grooves 13 and 16 while being moved.
- the new lubricant that has moved to one side in the axial direction immediately reaches the seal member 42.
- a small amount of the old lubricant that has been present on one axial side of the lubricant outlet 36 is pushed and moved by the new lubricant to the opposite side of the lubricant outlet 36 in one axial direction and the circumferential direction.
- Part of the old lubricant that has moved to one side in the axial direction is discharged to the outside from between the seal member 42 and the rolling groove 13 of the screw shaft 4, and the rest is lubricated with the lubricant outlet 36 in the circumferential direction by the seal member 42.
- the old lubricant that has moved to the side opposite to the lubricant outlet 36 in the circumferential direction will then move to the other side in the axial direction.
- the seal member 42 on the flange 28 side that is, the seal member 42 closer to the lubricant outlet 36 has a large adhesion force to the screw shaft 4, so that a part of the new lubricant that has reached the seal member 42 and the screw shaft 4.
- most of the movement to the one side in the axial direction is restricted by the seal member 42. Since new lubricant is continuously supplied, new lubricant supplied after this state moves to the other side in the axial direction. Thus, the new lubricant that moves to the other side in the axial direction causes the old lubricant to be pushed and moved to the end opposite to the flange 28.
- the lip portion 60 of the seal member 54 is axially opposite to the other side by the old lubricant. It is elastically deformed by being pushed to. As a result, the old lubricant is discharged from between the lip portion 60 and the rolling groove 13 of the screw shaft 4 to the outside. Thus, the old lubricant is sequentially discharged from the other axial end of the screw hole of the nut 7, the lubricant between the screw shaft 4 and the nut 7 is replaced with a new lubricant, and the new lubricant is replaced with the screw shaft 4 and the nut. It goes all the way to the 7th.
- the lubricant discharged from the lubricant outlet 36 of the grease supply path 31 between the screw shaft 4 and the nut 7 is lubricated between the screw shaft 4 and the nut 7 in the axial direction on one side and the other side, and further in the circumferential direction. 1 moves to the opposite side of the agent outlet 36, that is, the lower side of the sheet of FIG. 1, and pushes the old lubricant to one side and the other side in the axial direction, and further to the opposite side to the lubricant outlet 36 in the circumferential direction.
- the new lubricant directed to one side in the axial direction immediately reaches the seal member 42, and a part of the rolling of the seal member 42 and the screw shaft 4 is caused as in the case where the nut 7 is stopped. Although it leaks to the outside from between the groove 13, most of the movement to one side in the axial direction is restricted by the seal member 42. Since new lubricant is continuously supplied, new lubricant supplied after this state moves to the other side in the axial direction.
- the old lubricant which was initially positioned on one axial side of the lubricant outlet 36 and then positioned on the other axial side of the lubricant outlet 36, and the other axial direction of the lubricant outlet 36 from the beginning.
- the old lubricant that was present on the side is moved by being pushed to the other side in the axial direction by the new lubricant that is constantly supplied and moved to the other side in the axial direction, and the nut 7 is moved to the one side in the axial direction. Accordingly, the seal member 54 at the end opposite to the flange 28 is sequentially reached.
- the lip portion 60 of the seal member 54 is elastically deformed by being pushed to the other side in the axial direction by the old lubricant.
- the old lubricant is discharged from between the lip portion 60 and the rolling groove 13 of the screw shaft 4 to the outside.
- the old lubricant is sequentially discharged from the other axial end of the screw hole of the nut 7, the lubricant between the screw shaft 4 and the nut 7 is replaced with a new lubricant, and the new lubricant is exchanged with the screw shaft 4. Go all the way to the nut 7.
- the supplied new lubricant reaches the sealing member 42 on the flange 28 side sequentially as the nut 7 moves to the other side in the axial direction. Since the seal member 42 closer to the lubricant outlet 36 has a high adhesion force to the screw shaft 4, a part of the seal member 42 leaks to the outside from between the seal member 42 and the rolling groove 13 of the screw shaft 4. Is pushed to the other side in the axial direction by the seal member 42 and moves to the other side in the axial direction of the nut 7.
- the new lubricant that is pushed by the seal member 42 that moves to the other side in the axial direction and moves to the other side in the axial direction causes the old lubricant to be pushed and moved to the end opposite to the flange 28,
- the seal member 54 at the end opposite to the flange 28 is sequentially reached. Since the seal member 54 far from the lubricant outlet 36 has a small adhesion force to the screw shaft 4, the lip portion 60 of the seal member 54 is elastically deformed by being pushed to the other side in the axial direction by the old lubricant. As a result, the old lubricant is discharged from between the lip portion 60 and the rolling groove 13 of the screw shaft 4 to the outside.
- the old lubricant is sequentially discharged from the other axial end of the screw hole of the nut 7, the lubricant between the screw shaft 4 and the nut 7 is replaced with a new lubricant, and the new lubricant is exchanged with the screw shaft 4. Go all the way to the nut 7.
- the screw shaft can be used regardless of whether the nut 7 moves in one of the axial direction or the other direction.
- the new lubricant supplied between the nut 4 and the nut 7 can be spread to every corner between the screw shaft 4 and the nut 7.

- the operability and durability of the ball screw device 1 can be improved. Furthermore, since a complicated configuration for supplying new lubricant and a complicated configuration for discharging old lubricant are not required, an increase in cost can be suppressed.
- the end opposite to the flange 28, that is, the seal member 54 far from the lubricant outlet 36 uses a contact seal in which the lip portion 60 is in sliding contact with the rolling groove 13 of the screw shaft 4.
- the contact seal may not be necessary as long as the adhesion to the screw shaft 4 is smaller than that of the seal member 42 closer to the flange 28, that is, the lubricant outlet 36.
- the seal member 54 far from the lubricant outlet 36 can more easily release the lubricant interposed between the screw shaft 4 and the nut 7 to the outside than the seal member 42 closer to the lubricant outlet 36.
- it may not be a contact seal. That is, a non-contact seal in which a slight gap is interposed between the lip portion 60 and the rolling groove 13 of the screw shaft 4 may be used. In this case, the lubricant older than the contact seal can be efficiently discharged to the outside.
- a configuration in which a seal member is not provided at the end of the nut 7 on the side opposite to the flange 28 may be adopted.
- the new lubricant can be spread to every corner between the screw shaft 4 and the nut 7. In this case, since dust or the like easily enters between the screw shaft 4 and the nut 7 from the outside, it is desirable to use it in a clean environment with little dust in the air.
- the end of the nut 7 farther from the lubricant outlet 36 is interposed between the screw shaft 4 and the nut 7 than the end of the nut 7 closer to the lubricant outlet 36.
- a contact seal may be provided at the end of the nut 7 far from the lubricant outlet 36, a non-contact seal may be provided, or a seal member Need not be provided.

- the inward seal retains the lubricant interposed between the screw shaft 4 and the nut 107, that is, has an effect of being difficult to discharge to the outside. In other words, the inward seal is unlikely to let the lubricant escape to the outside.
- the end opposite to the flange 28, that is, the seal member 154 far from the lubricant outlet 36 is an outward seal in which the tip of the lip 160 is inclined in the axial direction to the outside of the nut.
- the outward seal has an effect of preventing foreign matter from entering the screw shaft 4 and the nut 107 from the outside, but has a small effect of holding the lubricant interposed between the screw shaft 4 and the nut 107. It is easy to let the lubricant escape to the outside.

- the number is one.
- the outward seal has an effect of preventing foreign matter from entering between the screw shaft 4 and the nut 207, but between the screw shaft 4 and the nut 207. The action of retaining the intervening lubricant is small, and the lubricant is easily released to the outside.
- new lubricant supplied between the screw shaft 4 and the nut 207 is applied to each corner between the screw shaft 4 and the nut 207. Can be spread to. Further, according to the present embodiment, even when the axial length of the nut 207 is long, new lubricant can be reliably distributed to every corner between the screw shaft 4 and the nut 207. As a result, the ball screw device according to the third embodiment is not lubricated with a deteriorated lubricant or a lubricant with accumulated wear powder, resulting in poor lubrication or accelerated wear of the ball screw device. Can be prevented. Thus, according to this embodiment, the operability and durability of the ball screw device can be enhanced. Further, since a complicated configuration for supplying new lubricant and a complicated configuration for discharging old lubricant are not required, an increase in cost can be suppressed.
- the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments and can be modified as appropriate.
- the number of nuts 7 loosely fitted to the screw shaft 4 is one, but a double nut type in which two nuts are connected in the axial direction and preload is applied may be used.
- the flange 28 is formed at one end of the nut 7 in the axial direction.
- the lubricant outlet 36 may be formed at a position that is biased toward one side or the other side in the axial direction from the central portion of the nut 7 in the axial direction.

Abstract
La présente invention concerne un dispositif (1) de vis à billes qui comporte, en vue de fournir un lubrifiant entre une tige de vis (4) et un écrou (7), un passage d'alimentation (31) en lubrifiant qui présente une sortie (36) de lubrifiant dans la surface périphérique interne de l'écrou (7) et qui est ménagé dans une embase (28). Les extrémités opposées du trou fileté de l'écrou (7) servent respectivement en tant qu'ouvertures de déversement du lubrifiant fourni entre la tige de vis (4) et l'écrou (7). Un élément d'étanchéité (42) agencé au niveau de l'extrémité de l'écrou (7), qui se trouve à proximité de la sortie (36) de lubrifiant, présente sur la surface périphérique externe de la tige de vis (4) une force d'adhérence supérieure à celle d'un élément d'étanchéité (54) agencé au niveau de l'extrémité de l'écrou (7), qui se trouve à l'opposé de la sortie (36) de lubrifiant, et, par conséquent, le lubrifiant est peu susceptible de faire l'objet d'une fuite.
