Hydrostatic mounting
View Patent ↗A hydrostatic mounting of longitudinally displaceably arranged machine parts, which have pressure pockets for hydraulic fluid for building up a hydrostatic pressure between two machine parts, gaps for the hydraulic fluid which are adjacent to the pressure pockets and are delimited by gap faces of the two machine parts, drainage for the reception of hydraulic fluid, and at least one seal arranged between the machine parts and surrounding the drainage sealing against leakage of hydraulic fluid out of the hydrostatic mounting. At least one circumferential portion of the seal has an outer sealing lip and an inner sealing lip. The inner sealing lip is adjacent to the gaps, and a vacuum-loadable drainage portion of the drainage is arranged between the two sealing lips.
1. A hydrostatic mounting of longitudinally displaceably arranged machine parts, comprising:
pressure pockets for hydraulic fluid for building up a hydrostatic pressure between the machine parts;
gaps for the hydraulic fluid which are adjacent to the pressure pockets and are delimited by gap faces of the machine parts;
a drainage for the reception of hydraulic fluid; and
at least one seal, arranged effectively between the machine parts and surrounding the drainage, sealing against leakage of the hydraulic fluid out of the hydrostatic mounting,
wherein at least one circumferential portion of the seal has an outer sealing lip and an inner sealing lip, the inner sealing lip being adjacent to the gaps, and a low-pressure-loadable drainage portion of the drainage being arranged between the inner sealing lip and the outer sealing lip.
2. The hydrostatic mounting of claim 1 , wherein, in a case of a specific pressure difference in front of and behind the inner sealing lip, the inner sealing lip lifts off from one machine part and allows hydraulic fluid to pass into the drainage portion.
3. The hydrostatic mounting of claim 1 , wherein the circumferential portion, produced from plastic, of the seal connects the inner sealing lip and the outer sealing lip to one another in one piece, the circumferential portion having a connecting duct which connects the drainage portion to a return duct provided on one of the machine parts.
4. A guide carriage of a hydrostatic profile rail guide with a hydrostatic mounting of claim 1 , one machine part being formed by the guide carriage which is mounted hydrostatically on a guide rail forming the other machine part and which is designed with a U-shaped cross-section, the guide carriage has a back and two legs, by which the guide rail is partially surrounded.
5. The guide carriage of claim 4 , wherein the seal is arranged effectively between the guide carriage and the guide rail, and the seal has a plurality of portions which are formed by side portions and head portions, and, in each case, at least one of the side portions, which extend along the guide rail, is provided between each leg and the guide rail, and, in each case, at least one of the head portions, which is arranged transversely with respect to the guide rail, is arranged on both head sides of the guide carriage, and the head portion of the seal forming the circumferential portion, having the inner sealing lip and the outer sealing lip, of the seal.
6. The guide carriage of claim 5 , wherein the seal surrounds the pressure pockets and the gaps adjacent to the pressure pockets, the drainage portion, arranged between the inner sealing lip and the outer sealing lip, of the circumferential portion of the seal being connected to a return duct of the guide carriage.
