Abstract
The invention relates to a linear guide (1) having at least one inner and at least one outer profile-member (2, 3), the outer profile-member (3) at least partially surrounding the inner profile-member (2) and the profile-members (2, 3) being guided one inside the other by means of at least two linear guiding means which are preferably arranged diametrically opposite each other, wherein at least a portion of a first linear guiding means is arranged in a floating manner.
Claims19
A linear guide comprising:
- at least one inner profile-member and at least one outer profile-member,
- the outer profile-member at least partially surrounding the inner profile-member and the profile-members being guided one inside the other by at least two linear guiding means which are arranged diametrically opposite each other,
- wherein the at least two linear guiding means each have a linear guiding rail and a complementary sliding member,
- wherein the at least two linear guiding means comprise a first linear guiding means,
- wherein the sliding member of the first linear guiding means is arranged in a floating manner,
- wherein the sliding member of the first linear guiding means is displaceable within predetermined limits transversely relative to a guiding direction of the profile-members,
- wherein the sliding member of the first linear guiding means includes a ball head rotatably arranged in a ball joint,
- wherein the sliding members are each connected to the outer profile-member by a retention device, and
- wherein the sliding member of the first linear guiding means is retained by the ball joint in a bearing seat arranged in a bearing calliper member in a floating manner.
