Flanged linear unit connectors of die-cast
aluminum have a split guide element bore
machined by cutting methods. This is arranged in
the plane parallel to the face of the flange.
Together with the guide tube of the linear unit,
the guide element bore forms 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 guide element.
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 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.
