Title:
BEARING FOR A MEASURING INSTRUMENT, PARTICULARLY A COORDINATE MEASURING INSTRUMENT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2002088624
Kind Code:
B1
Abstract:
The invention relates to a bearing (32) for a coordinate measuring instrument comprising a slide (36), which can be axially displaced in relation to the fixing device (34) and which can be supported opposite a fixing device by means of at least one air bearing (38, 40). In order to be able to utilize the bearing for all axes of the coordinate measuring instrument while simultaneously using outer surfaces of the slide as mounting surfaces for sensors, the invention provides that a force that works counter to the air bearing can be generated by a magnetic field (42, 44).
