BALL SCRW CAPABLE OF SENSING PARALLELISM IN REAL TIME

摘要

A ball screw is formed of a screw rod, two screw nuts, a link, a plurality of balls, and at least two parallelism sensors. The screw nuts are sleeved onto the screw rod and are connected with each other via a link to define a spiral path therebetween. The spiral path is linked with an internal circulatory passage of each screw nut for receiving a plurality of balls. The two parallelism sensors are oppositely mounted between the two screw nuts and surround the screw rod for sensing the preload between the two screw nuts to figure out whether the parallelism of the screw rod after the assembly is deviated or not. In this way, monitoring the voltage value outputted from the parallelism sensors can monitor the parallelism of the screw rod in real time after the assembly.

1. A ball screw of sensing parallelism for real-time surveillance of the same, comprising:
a screw rod having an external thread; two screw nuts sleeved onto the screw rod, each of the screw nuts having an internal circulatory passage and an internal path at an internal periphery thereof, a spiral path being formed between the internal threads and the external threads and linked with the internal circulatory passages, each of the two screw nuts having a keyway at an external, periphery thereof, the two keyways being connected with each other; a link mounted inside the keyways; a plurality of balls rollingly mounted within the spiral path and each of the internal circulatory passages; and at least two parallelism sensors oppositely fixed between face-to-face sides of the two screw nuts and surrounding the screw rod.
