Abstract: A guide carriage for a linear roller bearing is supportable in a longitudinally displaceable manner via at least one row of rollers on a guide rail which extends in a longitudinal direction, a separate rolling surface part which includes a rolling surface for the rollers is assigned to each row of rollers, and the rolling surface part is connected via an adhesive layer to a carrier body. The adhesive layer is designed essentially planar on the back side of the rolling surface part which faces away from the rolling surface, the rolling surface part being accommodated in a recess—which has an L-shaped cross section—of the carrier body.

Abstract: A linear device (10) includes a driver, which is arranged to be moveable back and forth along a drive track, and at least one lubricating device (28) non-moveably connected with the driver. The lubricating device (28) has at least one lubricating element (32) that is in lubricating contact with the drive track and at least one lubricant reservoir (34). At least one functional device (34) is provided, which maintains the pressure in the lubricant reservoir at a constant value.

Abstract: A rolling element chain (10) comprises a plurality of rolling elements (14) arranged in close succession and a longitudinal supporting band (12). The supporting band (12) in turn comprises a plurality of recesses (16) for the accommodation of the rolling elements (14), a plurality of retaining elements (20) for retaining the rolling elements accommodated in the recesses (16), where each rolling element (14) is assigned at least one retaining element (20), and at least one longitudinal flexible element (18) for interconnection of the retaining elements (20). Each rolling element (14) is retained, by the at least one retaining element (20) assigned to it, in the longitudinal direction (L) of the supporting band (12) either at its leading side only or at its following side only.

Abstract: In a screw drive, in particular a ball screw drive, a double nut, formed of a pair of individual nuts, is tightened on a threaded spindle and the individual nuts are secured together against relative rotation by a locking member. The locking member is secured within a radially extending recess formed in and bridging the individual nuts. The locking member can be inserted with a certain amount of play into the recess or borehole and then secured within the recess by a cement or similar material so that it cannot be displaced. Various types of locking members can be used, such as locking bolts or threaded bolts. When the locking member is connected into the recess or ball it prevents any rotation of the individual nuts relative to one another.

Abstract: A bearing assembly operatively interposed between a shaft and a housing having said shaft axially movably mounted therein for torque transmission therebetween includes a ball bushing inserted into a bushing receiving bore in the housing and guided through ball rings in ball races, with at least one of said ball rings being a load-transmitting ring including a load-transmitting ball ring section which rests radially inwardly against the shaft and radially outwardly against an external support surface defined by the ball bushing. The load bearing ball ring section of the at least one ball ring engages a race groove in the shaft on the shaft side of the ball ring and it engages a race groove of a bearing plate mounted in the ball bushing on the ball bushing side of the ball ring in a manner to transmit torque therebetween.
