Cross linear unit connectors of die-cast
aluminum have split clamping points and guide
element bores that have been partially machined by
cutting methods. The bores are offset in the plane
and arranged at an angle of 90°.
Together with the guide tube of the linear unit,
the guide element bores form a solid linear round
or square guide mechanism that can be adjusted
and clamped for low play. Centering bushes in the
pass-through bores eliminate axial play. Drive
keys transmit the linear movement of the linear
unit to the linear unit connector.
Depending on the design, the part to be moved is
fastened to the guide element or the guide element
itself is installed at the place of use such that the
entire linear unit moves together. At the screw
points, hex socket cap screws or adjustable hand
levers reduce the guide element bore or clamping
point size.
Adjustable hand levers are intended for repeated,
tool-free clamping. Under the designation HSK,
these are available separately for individual use
and in other designs. Compared with the tooloperated
hex socket cap screw, the clamping force
achievable with an adjustable hand lever is lower
due to the shorter lever length.
