  • Patent number: 6969199
    Abstract: The invention relates to a movable bearing for a slide (9) guided on two shafts (4), with a linear bearing (3) guided on one of the shafts (4) and a bearing housing(2) that accommodates the linear bearing (3) and is connected to the slide (9) by a connector (1). In order to further develop a movable bearing of this kind such that the bearing offers a long service life, precise guidance of the slide parallel to the plane defined by the two shafts and relatively little assembly effort with correspondingly low assembly costs, a movable bearing is provided which has a connector (1) designed in such a way that the bearing housing (2) is mounted in a manner permitting movement transverse to the longitudinal direction of the respective shaft (4) and parallel to the shaft plane (7) defined by the axes (5, 6) of the two shafts (4).
