This paper introduces the basic structure, working principle, and advantages of ball screw pair, analyzes the factors affecting its performance and accuracy, and proposes some measures to improve the performance of ball screw pair. Keywords: ball screw pair, structure, working principle, performance, accuracy 1. Introduction Ball screw pair is a kind of transmission component that converts rotary motion into linear motion. It consists of a screw shaft, a nut, and a set of ball bearings. The screw shaft has a helical groove on its surface, and the nut has a matching helical groove. The ball bearings are placed in the helical grooves, and they roll between the screw shaft and the nut, thus converting the rotary motion of the screw shaft into linear motion of the nut. 2. Structure and working principle The basic structure of ball screw pair is shown in Figure 1. The screw shaft is supported by bearings, and it is rotated by a motor or other power source. The nut is fixed to the load, and it moves along the screw shaft as it rotates. The ball bearings are placed in the helical grooves, and they are held in place by a retainer. Figure 1. Basic structure of ball screw pair The working principle of ball screw pair is shown in Figure 2. When the screw shaft rotates, the ball bearings roll between the screw shaft and the nut, and they transmit the motion to the nut. As a result, the nut moves along the screw shaft, converting the rotary motion of the screw shaft into linear motion of the nut. Figure 2. Working principle of ball screw pair 3. Advantages of ball screw pair Ball screw pair has the following advantages: 1) High efficiency: The rolling friction between the ball bearings and the helical grooves reduces the frictional losses and increases the efficiency of the ball screw pair. 2) High accuracy: The ball bearings provide a precise linear motion, which makes ball screw pair suitable for applications that require high accuracy and repeatability. 3) High load capacity: The large contact area between the ball bearings and the helical grooves allows ball screw pair to support high loads. 4) Long life: The rolling motion of the ball bearings reduces the wear and tear on the components, which increases the life of the ball screw pair. 4. Factors affecting performance and accuracy The performance and accuracy of ball screw pair are affected by the following factors: 1) Lead error: The lead error is the deviation of the actual linear motion of the nut from the theoretical linear motion. It is caused by manufacturing errors, such as machining errors and assembly errors. 2) Backlash: Backlash is the amount of free play between the ball bearings and the helical grooves. It is caused by the clearance between the components and the deformation of the components under load. 3) Preload: Preload is the force applied to the ball bearings to reduce the backlash and increase the stiffness of the ball screw pair. It affects the accuracy, stiffness, and life of the ball screw pair. 4) Temperature: Temperature affects the performance and accuracy of ball screw pair by changing the dimensions of the components, the viscosity of the lubricant, and the elasticity of the materials. 5) Lubrication: Lubrication is essential for the smooth operation and long life of ball screw pair. The type and amount of lubricant, the lubrication method, and the contamination of the lubricant affect the performance and accuracy of ball screw pair. 5. Measures to improve performance To improve the performance of ball screw pair, the following measures can be taken: 1) Improve manufacturing accuracy: The lead error can be reduced by improving the machining accuracy and assembly accuracy of the components. 2) Reduce backlash: Backlash can be reduced by minimizing the clearance between the components, using high-precision ball bearings, and reducing the deformation of the components under load. 3) Optimize preload: Preload can be optimized by adjusting the force applied to the ball bearings to balance the stiffness and life of the ball screw pair. 4) Control temperature: Temperature can be controlled by using materials with low thermal expansion coefficients, designing the components to dissipate heat, and using temperature sensors and controllers. 5) Improve lubrication: Lubrication can be improved by selecting the appropriate lubricant, using the appropriate amount of lubricant, using the appropriate lubrication method, and controlling the contamination of the lubricant. 6. Conclusion Ball screw pair is an important mechanical component that converts rotary motion into linear motion. It has the advantages of high efficiency, high accuracy, high load capacity, and long life. The performance and accuracy of ball screw pair are affected by the lead error, backlash, preload, temperature, and lubrication.
