  • Systems and methods for reducing slide bearing tolerances
    Publication number: 20060233473
    Abstract: A first component includes either linear bearings or linear shafts that are located at a fixed hole-to-hole or center-to-center distance. A second component, having linear shafts or linear bearings, respectively, is capable of adjusting the center-to-center or hole-to-hole distance of those second linear shafts or linear bearings. The center-to-center or hole-to-hole distance can be adjusted by relative motion between a first sub-component and a second sub-component of the second component, and/or deforming an elastically-deformable element of the second component. The second component can include a rigid stabilizing element and an elastically-deformable element.
