Abstract:
A pneumatic bearing assembly for a linear guide rail system. The pneumatic bearing assembly provides a substantially frictionless bearing surface between the bearing assembly and the linear guide rail system. The bearing assembly includes a bearing housing to support a payload on the guide rail system and a bearing insert in an interior chamber of the housing. A plurality of pneumatic passages communicate a pressurized pneumatic source through the bearing housing to an interior surface of the bearing insert. The unique orientation of the plurality of pneumatic passages distributes the pressurized pneumatic source to provide a pneumatic cushion between the bearing assembly and the linear guide rail system.

Claim (Index 1):
A pneumatic bearing assembly for a linear guide rail, comprising:\n a bearing housing having an pneumatic inlet adapted to receive a pressurized pneumatic source, a plurality if interior passages to communicate the pressurized pneumatic source to an interior chamber of the housing, and a notched cutout defined along a longitudinal length of the bearing adapted to receive a beam supporting a cylindrical portion the linear guide rail; a bearing liner having an outer surface dimensioned to be received within the interior chamber of the bearing housing, the bearing liner having a distribution slot inscribed in an outer surface of the bearing liner and in fluid communication with the plurality of interior passages of the bearing housing, a plurality of bearing slots inscribed in an interior surface of the bearing liner, the plurality of bearing slots in fluid communication with the distribution slot.
