A slideway guide unit for column ways in toolmaking and machine construction comprises a guide unit and a sliding element, secured to it and in contact with a guideway, together with a lubricating device for lubricating the guideway. The invention prevents lubricant losses during assembly and disassembly operations. The sliding element is connected to the guide unit in a positive, impervious and detachable manner, using intermediate sealing elements. The lubricating device displays at least one integrally molded, annular lubricant chamber in the region of the outer wall of the sliding element. At least one of the lubricant chambers is provided with an inlet and each of the lubricant chambers has at least one self-closing outlet for a lubricant, and the outlets penetrate the sliding element and end on the guideway.
Slideway guide unit for column ways in toolmaking and machine construction, comprising a guide unit and a sliding element in contact with the guideway which is connected to the guide unit in a positive, impervious and detachable manner and a lubricating device, consisting of a lubricating chamber to lubricate the guideway, whereby the lubricating chamber displays inlets and self-closing outlets, which penetrates the guiding element and end on the guideway, characterized in that several interconnected annular lubricant chambers (7) are integrated into the outer surface of the sliding element between the sliding element and the guide unit (1) with an axially distance to one another, that each of the lubricant chambers (7) is connected to several at evenly distributed outlets (9) and that the outlets (9) of each of the lubricant chambers (7) are arranged in a plane.
Lubricating slideway apparatus for slidably supporting an elongate machine element (6), the apparatus comprising:
