Abstract: An automatic lubrication structure of slide mechanism. The automatic lubrication structure includes a guide section, a slide section slidably disposed on the guide section, and a lubricating section fixedly disposed on the guide section. The lubricating section has an oil reservoir with an internal cavity for containing therein a lubricant or the like. The lubricating section further has a communication passage and multiple oil-filling holes formed on lateral sides of the guide section in contact with the slide section. The cavity communicates with the oil-filling holes via the communication passage. The slide section is movable to push a push member for making the lubricant or the like contained in the cavity spill out of the oil-filling holes so as to provide lubrication effect for contact faces between the guide section and the slide section.

Abstract: A linear motion guide device includes a slider slidably attached onto a guide rail, two end caps attached to two ends of the slider and each having a channel formed between two legs, two sealing members attached to the legs and located at two opposite side portions of the guide rail and each having a wiping member for engaging with the guide rail, and two further sealing members changeably attached to the legs and located farther away from the guide rail than the previous sealing members for making different sealing structures pr conditions with the guide rail, the end caps each include two anchoring slots formed in each leg for attaching the sealing members.

Abstract: A self-lubricating assembly for a linear driving device comprises an oil applying subassembly, an oil transmitting subassembly and an oil container. The oil transmitting subassembly transmits lubricating oil from the oil container to the oil applying subassembly, and the oil applying subassembly is driven by the linear driving device to perform lubricating action automatically. The oil container is provided for storing lubricating oil to prolong lubricating time of the linear driving device.

Abstract: A lubricating device for a linear guideway, used at either side of the slide block of a linear guideway, comprises: a housing, oil-containing member, magnets and metallic magnetic members. Using a magnetic force to push the oil-containing member against the rail, the magnetic force will not fatigue but will increase with the reduction in distance between the magnets and the metallic magnetic members, therefore, the oil-containing member can be kept in a good contact with the rolling passage of the rail, and the lubricating oil can be continuously transmitted from the oil-containing member to the surface of the rail, thus lubricating the linear guideway automatically without disassembling it.

Abstract: A linear motion guide device includes a slider slidably attached onto a guide rail, an end cap attached to each side of the slider, a cover band engaged onto the upper portion of the guide rail and having an end portion extended out of the end portion of the guide rail, and a block attached to the end portion of the guide rail and having an opening for receiving the end portion of the cover band, a wedge member is slidably engaged into the opening of the block and includes an inclined surface for slidably engaging with the inclined surface of the block and for securing the end portion of the cover band to the block when the wedge member is engaged into the opening of the block, a fastener may force the wedge member to secure the end portion of the cover band to the block.

Abstract: A linear guideway with quick release oil tanks comprises: a rail, a slide block disposed on the rail, connectors and an oil tank disposed at an ends of the slide block. The oil tanks is “II”-shaped and includes a base portion and two extension portions, a distance between the two extension portions is larger than a maximum width of the rail, and a maximum width of the base portion of the oil tanks is shorter than a distance between an upper surface of the rail and a top surface of the slide block. The connectors each have a connecting portion and an engaging portion, and is axially defined with a through hole, and the oil tanks are defined with an oil outlet for engaging with the engaging portion of the connectors.

Abstract: A lid to selectively plug or unplug a discharge mouth of a developer container mounted to an image forming apparatus for replenishing a developer. In one embodiment of the present invention, the lid includes a body having a bottom portion and a sidewall portion defining an opening, wherein the bottom portion has an inner surface and an outer surface, and the sidewall portion has an inner surface and an outer surface. The lid additionally includes a lug having a first end and a second end defining a body portion, wherein the lug is engaged with the body at a position at the sidewall portion such that the second end of the lug and the first surface of the bottom portion define a gap g therebetween and the body portion of the lug facing away from the developer container when the lid plugs the discharge mouth.
