  • Patent number: 10883580
    Abstract: A ball screw having a spindle nut (21), a threaded spindle, and a retaining element (23) is provided. The retaining element (23) is connected in a form-fitting, play-free manner to the threaded nut (21) by a projection (24) which fits around the outside of the threaded nut (21) in an end region. The threaded nut (21) and the retaining element (23) functioning as a force transmission member are first positioned precisely during manufacture and then connected by a form-fitting, in particular play-free connection, in particular by caulking, crimping, clinching or other deformation processes.

  • Patent number: 9546717
    Abstract: The invention relates to a ball screw (10) with a threaded spindle (12), a nut (14), rolling bodies (16) and at least one deflecting device (18, 20), wherein the threaded spindle (12) is displaceable by rotation, and wherein the deflecting device comprises an inner first body part (18) and an outer second body part (20), which body parts together form a deflecting channel (22), wherein the deflecting channel (22) has two tubular ends (24, 26) which are connected to each other via a transfer region (28), wherein the tubular ends (24, 26) of the deflecting channel are in each case formed by mutually complementary partial tubular sections (30, 32, 34, 36) of the body parts (18, 20), and wherein a sleeve (40) surrounding the nut (14) is provided, the deflecting device (18, 20) sits in an opening (42) in the nut (14), the deflecting device (18, 20) projects radially beyond the outer lateral surface of the nut (14) in a relaxed state when the sleeve (40) is absent and, in the presence of the sleeve (40), said sleev

  • Patent number: 9234752
    Abstract: The invention relates to a positioning apparatus, comprising a rotatable spindle, a sliding member, wherein a spindle counter segment of the sliding member is displaced along the spindle when the spindle rotates, a first guide for the sliding member, which interacts with a first guide counter segment of the sliding member and, in the process, leaves the sliding member with a linear mobility along the first guide axis and a pivotability about the first guide axis, and a second guide for the sliding member, which interacts with a second guide counter segment of the sliding member and, in the process, restricts the pivotability of the sliding member about the first guide axis.
