  • Patent number: 10654139
    Abstract: A displaceable carriage (10) and a linear guide for guiding the carriage, which includes a first guide path slideway (13, 31) and a second guide path slideway (32). To form the first slideway (13, 31), the carriage (10) includes at least one pocket (13), which slides along the first guide path part (31) and can hold lubricant under pressure to create a relieving force on the carriage (10). The second guide path part (32) includes an island-shaped surface to create a frictional force on the carriage (10). A pressure medium held in the at least one pocket (13, 14, 15) creates the relieving force, whereby the first slideway (13, 31) relieves the load on the second slideway (11a, 12a, 12b, 32).

  • Patent number: 7573161
    Abstract: The positioning device includes at least one displaceable carriage, liquid slide bearings on which the carriage is displaceable, and a carriage drive. The latter includes a first linear motor including a first primary part and a first secondary part that is opposite thereto and located in a first plane, and a second linear motor including a second primary part and a second secondary part that is opposite thereto and located in a second plane. The two linear motors are arranged in inclined positions such that the two planes are different and form an intersecting angle.

  • Publication number: 20060119191
    Abstract: The positioning device comprises at least one displaceable carriage (10), liquid slide bearings (12a, 16a; 12b, 16b) on which the carriage is displaceable, and a carriage drive. The latter comprises a first linear motor comprising a first primary part (20a) and a first secondary part (21a) that is opposite thereto and located in a first plane (19a), and a second linear motor comprising a second primary part (20b) and a second secondary part (21b) that is opposite thereto and located in a second plane (19b). The two linear motors are arranged in inclined positions such that the two planes are different and form an intersecting angle.
