Sliding block bolt is a special type of bolt mainly used to connect the sliding block with other components, playing a role in fixing and connecting. Here is some information about slider bolts:
1. Application areas:
-Mechanical manufacturing: In various mechanical equipment, slider bolts are commonly used to connect the slider of a linear guide rail to the worktable or other moving parts of the equipment, ensuring stable sliding of the slider on the guide rail, such as the slider connection in machine tools, automated production lines, and other equipment.
-Mold industry: The inserts and slider seats in molds are sometimes connected using slider bolts, which facilitates the assembly, disassembly, and adjustment of molds. This connection method is particularly suitable for mold components that require frequent replacement or adjustment.
-Lifting and transportation equipment: such as the lifting arm slider of a crane, the door foot slider of an elevator, etc. The slider bolts are used to fix the slider, ensuring the normal operation of the lifting equipment and smooth opening and closing of the elevator door.
-Wind power equipment: In the connection of wind turbine tower flanges, a universal fixture with sliding blocks and fastening bolts is used. The fastening bolts are screwed into the inner bolt holes of the sliding blocks to tighten the transverse connection plate and complete the fastening positioning. The connecting bolts pass through the through holes on the sliding blocks, the elongated grooves on the transverse connection plate, and the corresponding bolt holes on the tower flange, and are tightened and fixed to achieve the connection between the sliding blocks and the tower flange.
2. Characteristics and advantages:
-Connection stability: The slider bolt can provide a reliable connection, ensuring that the slider will not loosen or shift during operation, ensuring the normal operation and accuracy of the equipment.
-Easy to install and disassemble: Compared to some permanent connection methods such as welding, the connection method of slider bolts is more convenient for installation and disassembly, which is very convenient for equipment maintenance, component replacement, and debugging.
-Adjustable: In some situations where precise adjustment is required, the slider bolt can achieve fine adjustment of the slider position by adjusting the tightening degree of the bolt, thereby meeting the accuracy requirements of the equipment.
3. Material and type:
-In terms of material: Common slider bolt materials include carbon steel, stainless steel, etc. Carbon steel slider bolts have high strength and low cost, making them suitable for general mechanical connections; Stainless steel slider bolts have good corrosion resistance and are suitable for equipment working in humid and corrosive environments.
-In terms of types: there are internal hexagonal slider bolts, external hexagonal slider bolts, etc. The head of the hexagonal slider bolt is hexagonal in shape and requires the use of an hexagonal wrench for installation and disassembly. Its advantage is that the head can be embedded inside the component, making the connection more compact and beautiful; The head of the external hexagonal slider bolt is in the shape of an external hexagon and can be operated with a regular wrench, making installation and disassembly relatively convenient.
