ABSTRACT:
Longitudinal drive mechanisms are usually provided in combination with a component (17) of a machine which is mounted on a slide way to move the component along the slide way. Such mechanisms usually include a nut (2) running along a screwthreaded shaft or leadscrew (1) and any deviations from staightness or any discrepancies in the pitch of the leadscrew (1) cause extraneous or irregular movement of the component (17) along the slideway. By including a first pair of links (4) pivotally connected to the nut (2) and to a collar (3) and a second pair of links (7 and 8) pivotally connected to the collar (3) and the component (17) inaccuracies in the leadscrew (1) are absorbed by the pivoted links and so not transferred to the component (17).
