Abstract: A miniature linear guideway includes a rail, a slider, two circulation fittings and a retainer. The slider and the circulation fitting are set on the rail, so that a circulation channel is formed between the rail and the slider for the balls to run. The circulation fitting has several turning convex portions. The retainer has a plate portion and two retaining portions. The two ends of each retaining portion are connected to the plate portion by a positioning portion, and the plate portion is adjacent to the slider. The positioning portions of the retainer abut the turning convex portions. The width of the plate portion of the retainer is smaller than the distance between the turning convex portions of the circulation fitting. Thereby, the miniature linear guideway of the present invention can optimize the assembly efficiency, thereby realizing the purpose of automatic assembly.

Abstract: A hydrostatic linear guideway includes a rail, a slider coupled to the rail, and two load blocks disposed between the rail and the slider. A load portion of each load block is spaced from the groove wall of an outer groove of the rail and has an oil chamber facing toward the groove wall of one respective outer groove of the rail, such that an oil film is formed between the rail and each load block. A bearing portion of each load block is abutted against the groove wall of an inner groove of the slider so that the two load blocks are moved synchronously with the slider. Thus, the hydrostatic linear guideway of the present invention has the oil chamber defined in each load block and does not require additional processing of the slider, achieving the purpose of reducing the difficulty of the manufacturing process.

Abstract: A linear guideway includes a rail, a sliding block with two foot members, a circulating member with two receiving chambers, two sets of balls and two lubricating plates. The receiving chambers of the circulating member receive the foot members of the sliding block respectively, so that the rail, each foot member of the sliding block and the circulating member form a circulation channel for one respective set of balls to run. The two lubricating plates are adjacent to the two circulation channels and contact the two sets of balls to provide lubrication to the balls. In this way, the linear guideway conceals two lubricating plates in the sliding block, which can maintain the length of the sliding block without affecting the stroke, and ensure that the running path does not produce a step difference, so that the smooth running of the ball can be kept consistent.
