螺栓緊固而安裝於對象面,並且可省略於製作光滑導引面時 必須而不可或缺之滑合、削料之步驟。可實現大幅之工時 削減,因此利用領域亦廣泛,自1_年代起,此前未曾設 想使用之小型機械中之需要逐漸增加M视於此,持續進行 實現小型化之運動導引裝置之開發。於專利文獻丨中,揭示 有-種實現軌道轨條之寬度為2()咖以下、球徑為3 5画0 以下之小型化運動導引裝置。 關於專利文獻1中所揭示之運動導引裝置,包括與長度方 向呈直角之截面之形狀為大致矩形且沿長度方向形成有球 滾動部之執道軌條、及可移動地安裝於軌道軌條之鞍狀移動 塊。為了降低摩擦阻力,於執道執條與移動塊之間可滚動運 動地安插多個球。於移動塊設置使複數個球循環之迴路 (circuit)狀之球循環路徑。球循環路徑包括:與執道軌條之 099141684 4 201131090 球滾動部呈對向之古& 平行之|負細、 載球滚動部、與負載球滾動部 TTi

若使運動導弓I裝置小型化’則方向轉換路徑内周侧構成部 亦變小,樹脂成形及朝向移動塊端面之安裴變得困難。從而 亦會產生必須將與方向轉換路徑之數量對應之複數個方向 轉換路徑内周側構成部’個別地安裝於移動塊本體之端面之 問題。為了解決該問題,於專利文獻丨中所揭示之運動導引 裝置中,使複數個方向轉換路徑内周側構成部一體地成形於 中間板。並且,於蓋構件形成定位突起(boss),於中間板及 移動塊本體形成定位孔,將蓋構件之定位突起嵌入於中間板 及移動塊本體之定位孔中,藉此使該等彼此定位。 [先行技術文獻] [專利文獻] 專利文獻1 :曰本專利實公平6-39143號公報(參照3頁6 欄) 099141684 5 201131090 【發明内容】 (發明所欲解決之問題) 近年來,業界要求運動導引裝置更進一步小型化,轨寬亦 進步遵窄為例如4 mm、2 mm、1 mm。於此種超小型運

習知運動導引裝置與本實施形態之運動導引裝置,最大不 同在於其尺寸。圖2所示之執寬係奴為例如4馳、2画、 i麵等。藉由使運動導引裝置超小型化,即使於在習知運 動導引裝置中無法設置之極小空間亦可設置運動導引裝 置。不僅超小型化,而且與習知運動導料置同樣地,利用 球3之滾動運動使移動塊2相對於執道軌條【而移動,因此 滑動性亦良好。滑動性係藉由移動塊2移動時所產生之滾動 099141684 11 201131090 阻力來評估 如圖2所+ .. y、,執道執條1之截面為大致矩形,包括上面 a、左右1側面lb、及底面le。於將執道軌條1之底面 lc配置於、水平面内之狀態下’於軌道轨條1之左右-對側 .、刀別形成朝長度方向延伸之作為轉動體滾動部之_ 條求滚動t 10。球滚動槽10之截面形狀係形成為包含兩個 圓弧之哥特式m弧(G()thieaixh)槽形狀,球3係以兩點 於球滾動槽〗η * ^

構件之移動塊2。如圖3所示,移動塊2包括:作為移動構 件本體之塊本體8、分別安裝於塊本體8之移動方向兩端面 之中間板4、及用以覆蓋中間板4之端板卜端板5係藉由 作為緊固構件之螺釘9而安裝於塊本體8。中間板4係夾於 塊本體8之端面與端板5之間。移動塊2包括與執道執條j 之上面呈對向之中央部2a、及與軌道軌條丨之左右側面呈 對向之一對腳部2b,整體形成為鞍形。 如圖4所示,塊本體8亦包括與軌道軌條丨上面“呈對 099141684 12 201131090 向之_央部8a、及與軌道軌條丄之左右側面化呈對向之— 對腳部Sb ’整體形成為按形。於一對卿部此之内側面,妒 成與軌道執條丨之球滾動槽1G呈對向㈣為負載轉㈣滾 -動部之負載球滾動槽12。負載球滾動槽12之截面形狀係形 ,成為包含兩個圓弧之哥特式圓弧槽形狀,球3係以㈣接觸 於負載球滾動槽負載球滾動槽12長度方向之兩端部 12a實施隆起(e_ing)加卫。所謂隆起加工,係指為使球3 平滑地自無負載區域侵入至負載區域,設想球3之於負载區 域之彈性變形1,使負載球滾動槽12之端部12a帶有錐度 (taper)。 於塊本體8 ’與負載球滾動槽12平行地形成無負載返迴 路徑13。無負載返迴路徑13係將塊本體8自一端面貫通至 另而面為止於塊本體8之兩端面,分別形成作為緊固構 件之螺釘9所螺合之螺孔14。螺孔14之直徑大於無負載返 坦路匕13之直徑。於螺孔14之周圍,形成直徑大於螺孔 14之環狀之大起用凹部15。該突起用凹部15之周面係形成 為朝向螺孔14之内部寬度逐漸變窄之錐形。突起用凹部 之直徑大於螺孔14之直徑,因此於突起用凹部15與螺孔 14之分界線形成段差。於塊本體8之上面,形成用以將塊 本體8安裝於對象零件之安⑽釘17。塊本體8之材質係 不鏽鋼、鋼等金屬製。 於塊本體8之移動方向之兩端面,分別安裝中間板4。如 099141684 13 201131090 圖1所示,中間板4包括與執道執條丨之上面1&呈對向之 中央部4a、及與轨道軌條1 一對左右之側面呈對向之一 對腳部4b。於一對腳部4b分別一體地設置構成u字狀之方 向轉換路徑之内周側之方向轉換路徑内周侧構成部2〇。圖5 係表示中間板4之詳圖。圖中(A)係表示塊本體側之立體 圖’(B)係表示端板侧之立體圖,(c)係表示端板側之前視 圖,(D)係表示側視圖。板狀之中間板本體21包括中央部 21a、及設置於中央部2ia之左右方向兩端之一對腳部2ib。 於中間板本體21之中央部21a之左右兩側(亦稱作腳部21b 之上部)穿設可插入螺釘9之一對通孔22。於中間板本體21 之一對腳部21b分別穿設無負載返迴路徑13。於一對腳部 21b内側之側面,形成與塊本體8之負載球滚動槽12對應 之圓弧狀之切口 23。中間板4為樹脂之成形品。 如圖5中(A)所示,於中間板本體21之塊本體8側,分別 在一對通孔22周圍形成朝向塊本體8突出之環狀之突起 24。突起24之内徑與通孔22之内徑相等’突起24之外徑 與塊本體8之環狀突起用凹部15(參照圖4)之内在相專。於 突起24之外周面,設有朝向塊本體8外授遂漸’憂小之錐形 24a(參照圖1〇)。再者,於中間板本體21之上面,由於配置 射出成形時之澆口(gate),因此以產生毛邊(burr)荨亦無妨之 方式設置切口 51。 如圖5中(B)所示,於中間板本體21之端板5侧’於〜姆 099141684 14 201131090 通孔22之間一體地形成有朝向端板5突出之上下方向定位 凸部26。上下方向定位凸部26係形成為大致長方艚狀,其 上面26a及下面26c形成為平行之平面。該等上面2如及下 •面26c於將軌道執條1之底面配置於水平面時,位於與底面 •平行之水平面内。上下方向定位凸部26朝向端板5側突出 之頂面26d亦形成為平面。該頂面26d係位於與軌道轨條1 之長度方向正交之平面内。 如圖5中(B)所示,於中間板本體21之端板5側 對腳部21b分別一體地形成方向轉換路徑内周側構成部

如圖1所示,中間板4係由形成方向轉換路徑外周側之端 板5所覆蓋。端板5亦包括與軌道執條1之上面呈對向之中 央部、及與執道軌條1左右側面呈對向之一對腳部。圖6 係表示端板5之詳圖。圖中(A)係表示端板5外側之立體圖, (B)係表示中間板4側之立體圖,(C)係表示中間板4側之前 視圖。端板5為樹脂之成形品。 如圖6中(A)所示,於端板5之中央部5a左右方向之兩側 (亦稱作腳部5b之上部),穿設可插入螺釘9之一對通孔32。 端板5之通孔32之内徑與中間板4之通孔22之内徑相等。 如圖6中(B)所示,於端板5,在一對通孔32之間,形成 蓋構件側上下方向定位凹部34。端板5之蓋構件侧上下方 向定位凹部34係對應於中間板4之長方體形狀之上下方向 定位凸部26。蓋構件側上下方向定位凹部34之上面壁34a 及下面壁34c係形成為平行之平面。該等上面壁34a及下面 壁34c係於將軌道執條1之底面lc配置於水平面時,位於 與底面lc平行之水平面内。蓋構件側上下方向定位凹部34 之上面壁34a與下面壁34c之間之底面34d係形成為平面。 該底面34d係位於與軌道軌條1之長度方向正交之平面内。 如圖6中(B)所示,於端板5之中間板4側,於其一對腳 部分別形成與中間板4之方向轉換路徑内周側構成部20對 應之方向轉換路徑用凹部36。於方向轉換路徑用凹部36, 099141684 16 201131090 形成連接無負載返迴路 七二姑& ι U與負載球滾動槽12之U字狀 方向轉換路徑之外周側3 ,.. 。—對方向轉換路徑用凹部36之 左右方向最外側之壁面 、 爽住方向轉換路徑之外周側 二分為上側之壁φ 38b與下側之壁面_係形成為構成 圓肉之-部分之曲面。圓筒之曲率半徑與方向轉換路徑之中 〜線之曲率半徑大致相等。 如圖6中(C)之前視圖所示,方 向轉換路徑用凹部36係於少+ ^ ·右方向自腳部5b之中途直至内 側之側面39為止。於一對腳 打聊部5b内側之側面39,分別形 成用以將在執道軌條1之 〈衣/袞動槽10内滾動之球3撈起至 方向轉換路徑内之榜起部4Q。如圖6中⑻所示,方向轉換 路徑用㈣卩36之深度小於蓋構件側上下方向定位凹部34 之深度。方向轉換路徑用凹部36之底面36d係位於與軌道 執條1之長度方向正交之平面内。 如圖6(B)所示,於端板5之下面側,未形成用以覆蓋方 向轉換路徑内周侧構成部20之下面2〇c(參照圖7)之壁部。 其原因在於,如圖7所示,若於端板5設置用以覆蓋方向轉 換路徑内周側構成部2〇之下面20c之壁部42,則無法使端 板5小型化而相當於壁部42之厚度t之程度,壁部之強 度亦無法確保。藉由使中間板4之方向轉換路徑内周側構成 部2〇之下面露出,可實現端板5之小型化,而且可確保端 板5之強度。 圖8係表示方向轉換路徑内周側構成部2()及方向轉換路 099141684 17 201131090 徑用凹部36之底視圖。如該圖所示,方向轉換路徑内周側 構成部20之下® 20c露出。X,方向轉換路徑内周側構成 部20之頂面20d(參照圖5(B))及方向轉換路徑用凹部%之 底面36d(參照圖6(C)),並非形成為沿著方向轉換路徑中心 線之圓筒面’而係形成為平面。其係為確保端板5之強度。 圖8中之兩點鏈線係表示方向轉換路徑之中心線。若沿著方 向轉換路徑中心線分割為方向轉換路徑之内周侧(中間板* 側)與方向轉換路徑之外周侧(端板5側),則端板5侧之厚度 薆薄(參照圖11之兩點鏈線)。若端板5之厚度變薄,則再 加上於端板5未設置覆蓋方向轉換路徑内周側構成部2〇下 面之壁部42,端板5之撈起部40之強度會變弱。若撈起部 40之強度變弱,則於球3碰上撈起部4〇時,有撈起部4〇 朝打開方向變形,球3脫落之虞。為了解決該問題,方向轉 換路徑内周側構成部20之頂面2〇d及方向轉換路徑用凹部 36之底面36d係形成為平面。 又,藉由將方向轉換路徑内周侧構成部2〇之頂面2〇d及 方向轉換路徑用凹部36之底面36d形成為平面,而可相對 於中間板4輕易地在執道軌條丨之長度方向進行端板5定 位。若利用方向轉換路徑中心線分割成方向轉換路徑之内周 側(中間板4側)與方向轉換路徑之外周側(端板5側),則即 便將中間板4與端板5合併,由於尺寸差異之關係,亦容易 於該專之間產生微小之間隙(clearance)。藉由將分割面形成 099141684 18 201131090 為平面,可使間隙難以產生。 如圖1所示,於由塊本體8之負載球滚動槽12、無負載 返迴路徑13、及U字狀之方向轉換路徑所構成之迴路狀球 循環路中,排列多個球3作為轉動體。關於球3之直徑,小 者未滿1 mm。 如圖9所示,塊本體8與中間板4之定位係藉由將中間板 4之環狀突起24嵌入於塊本體8之突起用凹部15來進行。 若突起24嵌入於塊本體8之突起用凹部15,則突起24之 外周面(圖中用斜線A1所表示之部分)與突起用凹部15之内 周面(圖中用斜線A2所表示之部分)相接觸。突起24及突起 用凹部15分別各設置有兩個,因此可相對於塊本體8而於 上下方向及左右方向進行中間板4定位。 如此,利用中間板4之通孔22周圍之環狀突起24,相對 於塊本體8而進行中間板4定位,藉此即使於球3之直徑小 於螺釘之直徑之超小型運動導引裝置中,亦可確保大直徑之 突起24。因此,當形成中間板4之突起24時,可使突起24 之直徑變得容易管理,並且可相對於塊本體8而牢固地定位 中間板4。 如圖10所示,中間板4之突起24之外周面24a係形成為 錐形,塊本體8之突起用凹部15之内周面15a亦係形成為 錐形。藉由使該等形成為錐形,可提高組裝性,可更準確之 定位。 099141684 19 201131090 如圖11所示,相對於中間板4的端板5左右方向之定位, 係藉由將中間板4之一對方向轉換路徑内周側構成部20嵌 入於端板5之一對方向轉換路徑用凹部36來進行。若將一 對方向轉換路徑内周侧構成部20嵌入於一對方向轉換路徑 用凹部36,則中間板4之一對方向轉換路徑内周側構成部 20之左右方向最外側之側面29(圖中用斜線A3所表示)與端 板5之一對方向轉換路徑用凹部36之左右方向最外側之壁 面38(圖中用斜線A4所表示)相接觸。相對於中間板4,端 板5左右方向之移動係藉由側面29及壁面38而限制,因此 可相對於中間板4而於左右方向進行端板5定位。 如此,利用為使球3循環必要構成零件之方向轉換路徑内 周側構成部20,於左右方向進行中間板4及端板5定位, 因此可實現中間板4及端板5之小型化,並且可定位中間板 4及端板5。 此處,中間板4之一對方向轉換路徑内周側構成部20、 及端板5之一對方向轉換路徑用凹部36,係相對於中間板4 而僅於左右方向進行端板5定位。亦即,雖於左右方向定 位,但未於上下方向定位。藉由不於上下方向定位,可於端 板5不形成與方向轉換路徑内周側構成部20之下面20c(參 照圖7)、或上面相接觸之壁部42,從而可實現端板5之小 型化。 又,藉由將中間板4之一對方向轉換路徑内周側構成部 099141684 20 201131090 20之侧面29、及端板5之一對方向轉換路徑用凹部36之壁 面38形成為構成圓筒之一部分之曲面,可一面定位,一面 於組裝時對位置進行微調。

The linear motion guiding device is a unitized mechanical component part that can be attached to the surface of the object by bolt fastening, and can be omitted from the steps of slipping and cutting when making a smooth guiding surface. Since the use of the small-sized machines that have not been previously used has been increasing since the 1st century, the development of motion guidance devices for miniaturization has continued. In the patent document, there is disclosed a miniaturized motion guiding device that realizes that the width of the track rail is 2 () or less, and the ball diameter is 3 5 and 0 or less. The motion guiding device disclosed in Patent Document 1 includes a rail having a substantially rectangular cross section in a longitudinal direction and a ball rolling portion formed in a longitudinal direction, and is movably mounted on the rail rail. Saddle-shaped moving block. In order to reduce the frictional resistance, a plurality of balls can be placed in a rolling motion between the execution bar and the moving block.

As shown in FIG. 6(B), on the intermediate plate 4 side of the end plate 5, the direction conversion path recessed portion 36 corresponding to the inner circumferential side side constituent portion 20 of the intermediate plate 4 is formed in the pair of leg portions. . The direction conversion path recesses 36, 099141684 16 201131090 form a connection unloaded return path. The seven-headed & ι U and the load ball rolling groove 12 U-shaped direction conversion path outside the peripheral side 3, .. . The outermost wall surface in the left-right direction of the concave portion 36 for the direction switching path and the outer circumferential side of the cooling direction switching path are divided into the upper surface wall φ 38b and the lower wall surface _ to form a curved surface which is a part of the round meat. The radius of curvature of the cylinder and the direction of the direction of the transition are approximately equal to the radius of curvature of the line. As shown in the front view of Fig. 6(C), the direction conversion path recess 36 is formed in a small + ^ · right direction from the middle of the leg portion 5b to the inner side surface 39. On the side surface 39 on the inner side of the pair of foot hitting portions 5b, a top portion 4Q for picking up the ball 3 rolled in the "clothing/tilting groove 10" of the track rail 1 into the direction changing path is formed. As shown in (8) of Fig. 6, the depth of the direction switching path (4) 卩 36 is smaller than the depth of the positioning concave portion 34 in the up-and-down direction of the cover member side. The bottom surface 36d of the direction changing path recess 36 is located in a plane orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the rail bar 1. As shown in Fig. 6(B), on the lower surface side of the end plate 5, a wall portion for covering the lower surface 2〇c (see Fig. 7) of the inner peripheral side constituent portion 20 of the direction changing path is not formed. The reason why the end plate 5 is provided with the wall portion 42 covering the lower surface 20c of the inner circumferential side side constituent portion 2〇 of the direction changing path is as shown in Fig. 7, so that the end plate 5 cannot be miniaturized and corresponds to the wall portion. The thickness of 42 is not the same as the strength of the wall. By exposing the lower surface of the inner peripheral side constituent portion 2 of the intermediate plate 4, the end plate 5 can be miniaturized and the strength of the end plate 5 can be ensured. Fig. 8 is a bottom view showing the inner peripheral side constituent portion 2 () of the direction change path and the direction change path 099141684 17 201131090. As shown in the figure, the lower side of the inner peripheral side constituent portion 20 of the direction switching path is exposed. X, the top surface 20d (see FIG. 5(B)) of the inner circumferential side constituent portion 20 of the direction switching path and the bottom surface 36d (see FIG. 6(C)) of the concave portion for the direction switching path are not formed along the direction conversion path. The cylindrical surface of the center line is formed as a flat surface. It is to ensure the strength of the end plate 5. The two-point chain line in Fig. 8 represents the center line of the direction change path. When the center line of the direction change path is divided into the inner peripheral side (the intermediate plate * side) of the direction change path and the outer peripheral side (the end plate 5 side) of the direction change path, the thickness of the end plate 5 side is thin (refer to FIG. 11). The two-point chain line). When the thickness of the end plate 5 is reduced, the end portion 5 is not provided with the wall portion 42 covering the lower surface of the inner circumferential side constituent portion 2 of the direction changing path, and the strength of the pick-up portion 40 of the end plate 5 is weak. When the strength of the scooping portion 40 is weak, when the ball 3 hits the scooping portion 4, the scooping portion 4〇 is deformed in the opening direction, and the ball 3 is detached. In order to solve this problem, the top surface 2〇d of the inner circumferential side structural portion 20 of the direction switching path and the bottom surface 36d of the concave portion 36 for the direction switching path are formed into a flat surface. Further, by forming the top surface 2〇d of the inner circumferential side constituent portion 2〇 of the direction switching path and the bottom surface 36d of the concave portion of the direction changing path 36 into a plane, it is possible to easily perform the rails with respect to the intermediate plate 4丨The end plate 5 is positioned in the longitudinal direction. When the inner peripheral side (the intermediate plate 4 side) of the direction change path and the outer peripheral side (the end plate 5 side) of the direction change path are divided by the center line of the direction change path, even if the intermediate plate 4 and the end plate 5 are combined, due to the size The relationship between the differences is also easy to create a small clearance between the specialties. By forming the split surface into a plane of 099141684 18 201131090, it is difficult to generate a gap. As shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of balls 3 are arranged in a loop-shaped ball circulation path formed by the load ball rolling groove 12, the no-load return path 13, and the U-shaped direction changing path of the block main body 8. Rotating body. Regarding the diameter of the ball 3, the small one is less than 1 mm. As shown in Fig. 9, the positioning of the block body 8 and the intermediate plate 4 is performed by fitting the annular projections 24 of the intermediate plate 4 into the projection recesses 15 of the block body 8. When the projection 24 is fitted into the projection recess 15 of the block main body 8, the outer peripheral surface of the projection 24 (the portion indicated by the oblique line A1 in the drawing) and the inner peripheral surface of the projection recess 15 (the portion indicated by the oblique line A2 in the drawing) ) contact. Since the projections 24 and the projection recesses 15 are provided separately from each other, the intermediate plate 4 can be positioned in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction with respect to the block main body 8. Thus, the intermediate plate 4 is positioned relative to the block body 8 by the annular protrusion 24 around the through hole 22 of the intermediate plate 4, whereby even in the ultra-small motion guiding device in which the diameter of the ball 3 is smaller than the diameter of the screw, A large diameter protrusion 24 can also be ensured. Therefore, when the projections 24 of the intermediate plate 4 are formed, the diameter of the projections 24 can be easily managed, and the intermediate plate 4 can be firmly positioned with respect to the block body 8. As shown in Fig. 10, the outer peripheral surface 24a of the projection 24 of the intermediate plate 4 is formed into a tapered shape, and the inner peripheral surface 15a of the projection recess portion 15 of the block main body 8 is also formed into a tapered shape. By forming these into a tapered shape, the assemblability can be improved and the positioning can be performed more accurately. 099141684 19 201131090 As shown in FIG. 11, the positioning of the end plate 5 of the intermediate plate 4 in the left-right direction is performed by inserting one of the intermediate plates 4 into the direction switching path inner peripheral side constituent portion 20 in one of the end plates 5. The direction switching path is performed by the recess 36. When the pair of direction-converting-path inner peripheral side constituent portions 20 are fitted in the pair of the direction-converting-path-receiving portions 36, the one side of the intermediate plate 4 is the outermost side surface 29 of the inner-side direction side of the direction-converting path inner peripheral side component portion 20 (Fig. The middle side of the end plate 5 is in contact with the outermost wall surface 38 (indicated by the oblique line A4 in the drawing) of the one side of the end plate 5 in the left-right direction. With respect to the intermediate plate 4, the movement of the end plate 5 in the left-right direction is restricted by the side surface 29 and the wall surface 38, so that the end plate 5 can be positioned in the left-right direction with respect to the intermediate plate 4. In this way, the intermediate plate 4 and the end plate 5 are positioned in the left-right direction by the direction-converting path inner-peripheral side component 20 for arranging the ball 3 to form a component, so that the intermediate plate 4 and the end plate 5 can be miniaturized, and The intermediate plate 4 and the end plate 5 can be positioned. Here, the one pair of the intermediate plate 4 and the one pair of the direction-converting path recesses 36 of the end plate 5 and the end plate 5 are positioned with respect to the intermediate plate 4 only in the left-right direction. That is, although it is positioned in the left and right direction, it is not positioned in the up and down direction. By not positioning in the up-and-down direction, the end plate 5 can be formed without the wall portion 42 that is in contact with the lower surface 20c (see FIG. 7) of the inner peripheral side constituent portion 20 of the direction change path or the upper surface, so that the end plate 5 can be realized. miniaturization. Further, the side surface 29 of the one-to-one direction-converting path inner peripheral side constituent portion 099141684 20 201131090 20 and the wall surface 38 of one of the end plates 5 for the direction change path recess portion 36 are formed as a part of the cylinder. The curved surface can be positioned on one side and fine-tuned at the time of assembly. The positioning of the end plate 5 in the vertical direction with respect to the intermediate plate 4 is performed by fitting the upper and lower positioning convex portions 26 of the intermediate plate 4 to the upper and lower positioning concave portions 34 of the end plate 5 on the side of the cover member. When the up-and-down direction positioning convex portion 26 is fitted in the lid member side vertical positioning recessed portion 34, the upper surface 26a of the vertical direction positioning convex portion 26 (the portion indicated by the oblique line A5 in the figure) and the lower surface 26c are attached to the lid member side in the up and down direction. The upper wall 34a of the positioning recess 34 (the portion indicated by the oblique line A6 in the drawing) is in contact with the lower wall 34c. The movement in the up-down direction with respect to the end plate 5 of the intermediate plate 4 is restricted by the upper surface 26a and the lower surface 26c, the upper surface 34a and the lower surface 34c, so that the upper and lower ends can be aligned with respect to the intermediate plate 4 Board 5 is positioned. Here, the intermediate plate 4 is positioned in the up-down direction of the convex portion 26 and the cover member side of the end plate 5 in the vertical direction positioning recess portion 34, and the end plate 5 is positioned only in the vertical direction with respect to the intermediate plate 4. The through holes 32 (see Fig. 6(B)) are provided on both sides of the lid member side in the vertical direction of the cover member 5 (see Fig. 6(B)). Therefore, the end plate 5 cannot be positioned in the left and right direction with respect to the intermediate plate 4. Thereby, double positioning in the left and right directions can be prevented. Fig. 12 shows a state in which the intermediate plate 4 and the end plate 5 are positioned in the block main body 8 and fastened to the block main body 8 by screws 9 as fastening members. When the screw 9 is fastened to the block body 8, the top plate 26 of the end plate 5 side of the intermediate plate 4 is positioned in contact with the bottom plate 34 of the positioning recess 34. The fastening force of the screw 9 is transmitted to the block body 8 by the positioning convex portion 26 in the lower direction of the intermediate plate 4 and the positioning concave portion 34 in the direction of the cover member side of the left side of the plate 5. Thus, the intermediate plate 4 is positioned in the up-down direction of the convex portion 26 and the (four) member-side up-and-down direction positioning concave portion 34, and also functions as a bearing surface for the break 9 . By means of the 佶jl female, the part having the originally necessary function also has the function of positioning, and it is not necessary to provide the protrusion for positioning, so that the intermediate board 4 and the end plate 5 can be miniaturized. The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and various modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. For example, the end plate is positioned in the above-described direction. Therefore, the intermediate plate is formed with the up-and-down direction positioning convex portion, and the end plate is formed with the upper and lower direction positioning concave portions which are fitted in the up-and-down direction positioning convex portion. However, the relationship between the concavities and convexities may be reversed, and the concave portion may be formed in the vertical direction of the intermediate plate, and the convex portion may be positioned in the vertical direction on the side of the end plate forming cover member. (Industrial Applicability) As a use of a small motion guiding device, it is necessary to save space, save energy, and perform high-precision sports machinery and peripheral equipment. For example, medical equipment such as a remote surgery robot, a measuring device such as a small sensor, a small precision device such as a gripper, and a three-dimensional model making machine can be cited. It can be used not only in industrial machinery, but also in household appliances such as household sewing machines. Not only can 099141684 22 201131090 be used as a single unit of motion guide, but can also be used as a micro actuator by combining with a small linear motor.
