Wedge drive having adjustable guide apparatus

An adjustable guide system for a wedge drive including a guide apparatus having a first and a second wedge drive part, which is formed by the first and second wedge drive parts, wherein

• the first and the second wedge drive parts can be moved by means of a stroke directed in a stroke direction (Z) relative to one another as well as in a sliding direction (X, X′, X″) determined by the guide apparatus and at an angle to the stroke direction (Z), guided by the guide apparatus, wherein
• the guide apparatus comprises a holding clamp,
• the holding clamp is fixed on the first wedge drive part and is mounted on the second wedge drive part so that it can be moved in the sliding direction (X, X′, X″) with a sliding guide of the guide apparatus, characterized in that
• a guide play of the sliding guide can be set by an adjustment means of the guide apparatus which comprises an adjustment surface and a forced guidance surface, the adjustment surface being provided on an adjustment part, which is arranged between and in direct abutment with the second wedge drive part and the holding clamp, with the position of the adjustment surface being moved in parallel upon ablation of material of the adjustment part,
• wherein, by adjusting a position of the adjustment surface, a guide part of the guide apparatus can be moved along the forced guidance surface and the guide play can be set as a result, wherein
• a normal vector (N) of the forced guidance surface is at an angle to a plane of movement spanned by the stroke direction (Z) and the sliding direction (X, X′, X″), wherein,
• the first wedge drive part is a driver or a slider bed, and the second wedge drive part is a slider, or the first wedge drive part is the slider, and the second wedge drive part is the slider bed, such that the guide apparatus is located between the slider and the slider bed or the driver wherein,
• the second wedge part comprises the forced guidance surface, the guide part forms the adjustment surface and a forced guidance counter-surface corresponding to the forced guidance surface, and the sliding guide is determined by a sliding surface provided on the guide part and a sliding counter-surface provided on the holding clamp, wherein,
• the sliding surface can be positioned relative to the sliding counter-surface, by adjusting the position of the adjustment surface on the guide part by a movement of the guide part with its forced guidance surface along the forced guidance surface, and the guide play can be set.
