ABSTRACT:
A carriage or slide of a machine tool is moved along a supporting guideway or way by a pair of driven pinions engaging a rack, and each pinion is mounted on the output shaft of a corresponding planetary gearbox. The input shafts of the gearboxes are driven by a reversible electric motor through an endless belt and pulley system. A pair of belt tension wheels engage the endless belt and are supported by a set of spring biased slide members which cooperate to establish a predetermined tension in the belt and a predetermined preload torque on the input and output shafts of the gearboxes to produce a corresponding anti-backlash force of the pinions against the rack.
