A tool for breaking rocks comprising a tool head supported by a guide means to be linearly displaceable with respect to the guide between a retracted position and an extended position, a distal end of said tool head extending from said guide to engage a surface to be broken when the tool head is in its extended position; a drive adapted to drive said tool head towards its retracted position in a first operation and to drive the tool head towards its extended position in a second operation, said drive including a drive part mounted on said guide and a driven part mounted on the tool head and engaged by said drive part to be linearly displaceable with respect to the guide upon operation of the drive part of the drive; and a controller adapted to control operation of the drive .

A head-mounted display includes a varifocal actuation block and an optics block coupled to the varifocal actuation block. An anti-creep system located in the varifocal actuation block includes a plurality of anti-creep mechanisms that are configured to prevent bearing ball creep associated with bearing balls in the varifocal actuation block. The bearing balls are used to move a movable carriage that is coupled to a fixed carriage in the head-mounted display via the anti-creep mechanism. The anti-creep mechanisms prevent bearing ball creep associated with the bearing balls from occurring in the varifocal actuation block by limiting the movement in an angular direction of the bearing balls that are used to move the movable carriage in a first direction in the head-mounted display.

The invention relates to a slide for a linear guide which comprises the slide and a rail element with two running surfaces facing each other. The slide has a main part and a plurality of rolling bodies, and the plurality of rolling bodies are received on the main part such that the plurality of rolling bodies can roll at least on the two running surfaces or carry out a sliding movement relative to the two running surfaces. The main part defines the position of each one of the plurality of rolling bodies in a pull-out direction relative to the main part, wherein the slide additionally has two slide elements and a spring element, and each of the two slide elements is mounted on the main part such that it can move in a vertical direction perpendicular to the pull-out direction so that each of the two slide elements can be brought into frictional engagement with a respective running surface, said spring element being supported on the main part such that the spring element biases the two slide elements away from each other in the vertical direction.

For the purpose of improving a protective effect of a home appliance device, in particular a home appliance chiller device, is proposed comprising: a telescopic guiding unit, which is convertible at least from a fully contracted state to a fully extracted state and vice versa, and has at least one stationary guiding element; and comprising a cover unit, which at least mostly covers the stationary guiding element at least in the fully extracted state.

A linear motion guide device has a high rigidity, a good linear motion guiding accuracy, and as little rattling as possible. The linear motion guide device prevents sand, water or other contaminants from entering its actuator main body, and features low maintenance requirement. A linear motion member of the linear motion guide device includes is constituted by a plurality of axially divided segments. Each of these segments supports a plurality of guided members which make contact with two, mutually paired, guide surfaces of a housing. A preload can be applied between the guide surfaces and the guided member. The housing has a sealed structure, with a pressure inside the housing higher than an external pressure, for preventing external sand and water from entering the housing.

A precision linear bearing is designed to minimize the points of contact, rolling and rubbing, to reduce particulates and FOD while ensuring stability and accuracy in a manner suitable for a clean room environment. The linear bearing comprises at least first and second bearing layers within a one-piece housing. Each bearing layer comprises at least three roller bearing spaced around the axial bore in a first plane within the housing, each roller bearing having an axis of rotation substantially perpendicular to the axial bore and projecting into said axial bore for engagement of a linear member extending through the axial bore. Each roller bearing suitably engages the linear member at a single point of contact. The layers are rotationally offset from one another such that the roller bearings contact different positions around the circumference of the linear member. The linear bearing may be configured to engage the inner surface of a cylindrical member.

A securable rail guide contains a guide rail, a runner rail arranged in the guide rail and able to travel along the guide rail, and a securing unit which is embodied to fix the runner rail in position in the guide rail in a releasable manner. A locking unit is arranged on the guide rail and is embodied to secure the runner rail in a locked position, and an unlocking unit is arranged on the runner rail. The locking unit and the unlocking unit are parts of the securing unit. The unlocking unit is operatively connected to the locking unit such that an actuation of the unlocking unit releases the runner rail to allow a free movement along the guide rail. This configuration provides a separation of the locking and unlocking mechanisms, as a result of which an independent configuration of the stability of the overall locking mechanism is possible.

A three-section synchronous concealed slide rail includes a mobile rail, a middle rail, a fixed rail and a damping mechanism. An upper rack and an upper roller cage with an roller are installed between the mobile rail and the middle rail, a split-type lower roller cage with a roller is installed between the middle rail and the fixed rail, a surface of which is provided with a rack. A gear assembly is meshed between the upper rack and the lower roller cage and used for controlling synchronous or staggered operation of the mobile rail and middle rail according to the intensity of acting force, and the damping mechanism is installed on the fixed rail.

This invention describes several mechanisms that increase the value and usability of 3D printing and assembly machines.

A Collision Bearing within a channel means, expressing the universal physical principle of collision. An assembly of two weight-bearing bearings, in two embodiments, for the purpose of moving objects. A slide plate must be attached to the support body of the bearings, whose width is in sliding contact with the inner channel walls, to align the motion of the bearings along the channel. This channel having a flange member, which retains the Collision Bearing within the channel. These two functions, rolling and sliding, simultaneously, demonstrates the universal physical principle of collision being claimed, and places the Collision Bearing in the category of a basic machine in the field of mechanics, as is for example, the nut and bolt. Impact pads are attached to the end walls of the bearing support body as a necessary component part in protecting this body.
