ABSTRACT:
An improved threadless feed screw mechanism includes elongated concentric inner and outer races radially spaced apart from each other with a cage positioned between the races. The cage includes a plurality of rollers each positioned in a slot, the slots having axes inclined relative to the axes of the races. The rollers are normally in contact with the facing surfaces of the inner and outer races. A portion of at least one of the facing surfaces is recessed providing a clearance for the rollers. As the rollers and cage move, the rollers advance along the slot relative to the cage. As each roller moves into the recessed area a cam member returns the roller to the opposite end of the slot.
