Abstract
Mounting rail for mounting a guide carriage of a linear guide onto a guide rail, having a mounting contour which has side faces formed on mutually averted longitudinal sides of the mounting rail and has a top face situated between the side faces and has bearing faces arranged at the end sides and transversely to the longitudinal axis for bearing against the guide rail. One bearing face has a chamfer at the transition to the side faces and to the top face. The other bearing face adjoins the side faces and the top face at an angle of 90 degrees.
Claims11
A mounting rail for mounting a guide carriage of a linear guide onto a guide rail, comprising:
- side faces formed on sides of the mounting rail;
- a top face situated between the side faces;
- first and second bearing faces arranged at end sides of the mounting rail and extending transversely to a longitudinal axis of the mounting rail for bearing against the guide rail, wherein the first bearing face has a chamfer at the transition to the side faces and to the top face and the second bearing face adjoins the side faces and the top face at an angle of 90 degrees, wherein at least one of the first and second bearing faces defines a slot;
- a central section for receiving the guide carriage;
- and
- mounting heads located at both ends of the central section with the first and second bearing faces positioned at the end sides of the mounting heads, respectively.
A mounting rail for mounting a guide carriage of a linear guide onto a guide rail, comprising:
- first and second parts that cooperate to form bearing faces, side faces that extend longitudinally between the bearing faces, and a top face that extends between the side faces and longitudinally between the bearing faces, the first and second parts being coupled to each other, such that a slot is defined between the first and second parts, wherein the width of the slot varies along the length of the slot, such that portions of the first and second parts resiliently deflect toward each other to accommodate the guide carriage.
A mounting rail for mounting a guide carriage of a linear guide onto a guide rail, comprising:
- side faces formed on sides of the mounting rail;
- a top face situated between the side faces;
- first and second bearing faces arranged at end sides of the mounting rail and extending transversely to a longitudinal axis of the mounting rail for bearing against the guide rail, wherein the first bearing face has a chamfer at the transition to the side faces and to the top face and the second bearing face adjoins the side faces and the top face at an angle of 90 degrees;
- and
- two longitudinal parts, which are each made of plastic by means of injection molding.
A mounting rail for mounting a guide carriage of a linear guide onto a guide rail, comprising:
- a first mounting head having a first mounting contour;
- a second mounting head in a spaced relationship with the first mounting head and having a second mounting contour;
- and
- a central section that extends longitudinally between the first and second mounting heads and has a parking contour that is offset inwards of the first and second mounting contours, such that load is reduced on wipers of the guide carriage and rolling elements of the guide carriage are retained while the guide carriage is positioned on the central section, wherein the first mounting head includes a first bearing face and the second mounting head includes a second bearing face, and wherein side faces and a top face that extends between the side faces extend from the first bearing face to the second bearing face, wherein the first bearing face has a chamfer at the transition to the side faces and top face, wherein the second bearing face adjoins the side faces and top face at an angle of 90 degrees.
A mounting rail for mounting a guide carriage of a linear guide onto a guide rail, comprising:
- a first mounting head having a first mounting contour;
- a second mounting head in a spaced relationship with the first mounting head and having a second mounting contour;
- and
- a central section that extends longitudinally between the first and second mounting heads and has a parking contour that is offset inwards of the first and second mounting contours, such that load is reduced on wipers of the guide carriage and rolling elements of the guide carriage are retained while the guide carriage is positioned on the central section, wherein the first mounting head includes a first bearing face and the second mounting head includes a second bearing face, and wherein side faces and a top face that extends between the side faces extend from the first bearing face to the second bearing face, and wherein at least one of the first bearing face and the second bearing face defines a slot that is configured to allow resilient deformation of a first part of the mounting rail relative to a second part of the mounting rail that is coupled to the first part.
