Pillow block mounted on linear bearing???

Pillow block mounted on linear bearing???

Pillow block mounted on linear bearing???

(OP)
Anyone have any experience in this? My design is a lift using a lever so when the lever is rotated providing the lift the radius changes. I thought a pillow block mounted directly to a linear rail would do the job. Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Should work. Go for it! Don't forget to verify slewing moment and radial oscillatory coefficients though.

Bearings are typically used in pairs.
