Patent ID: 8434946

Claim:
A system, comprising: a linear motion guide track comprising an axial member; a support base extrusion comprising at least one T-shaped slot disposed therein that extends inward from an opening in an outer surface of the support base extrusion to define a core, wherein the opening is more narrow than the core; an elongated integral clamp member that comprises a lower surface, an upper surface opposite the lower surface, a first end, and a second end opposite the first end, a connected end that is located at the first end and extends from the lower surface to the upper surface, a first arm that extends from the connected end to the second end, wherein the first arm defines a bolt down region of the lower surface that extends from the first end, and a corresponding clamping region that extends from the bolt down region to the second end, and a second arm that extends from the connected end to the second end, wherein the second arm defines the upper surface that extends from the first end to a corresponding clamping region at the second end, wherein a gap is defined between the first arm and the second arm, wherein the gap extends from the second end to the connected end, and wherein the gap is configured to accept the linear motion guide track, wherein the first arm and the second arm are disposed in substantially parallel planes within the corresponding clamping region, wherein each of the arms further comprise a plurality of corresponding conduits that extend from the upper surface to the lower surface, wherein the plurality of corresponding conduits are normal to the lower surface and to the parallel planes, wherein the plurality of conduits line up relative to each of the arms through the gap, and wherein the plurality of conduits are located along the length of the elongated integral clamp member; and a plurality of bolts inserted through at least two of the plurality of conduits, some of the corresponding conduits such that each of the bolts extend through the gap and are threaded into corresponding ones of the plurality of nuts, wherein threading of the at least two bolts to the corresponding nuts results in a clamping force that is resisted by the nuts, thereby securing the bolt down surface of the elongated clamp member against the outer surface of the support base extrusion, and causing the gap to narrow, thereby causing the elongated integral clamp member to clamp onto the linear motion guide track.
