Motion guide device

摘要

A motion guide device including a track shaft having a rolling surface; a moving member movable along the track shaft; a first seal member in sliding contact with a surface of the track shaft to close a gap between the track shaft and the moving member; and a second seal member provided along the rolling surface of the track shaft and closes the gap between the track shaft and the moving member. The second seal member includes: a fixing substrate locked to the moving member; and a seal portion fixed to the fixing substrate along the rolling surface of the track shaft and includes a seal lip portion in sliding contact with the surface of the track shaft and an extended seal portion in close contact with the first seal member while being compressed by the first seal member when the first seal member is fixed to the moving member.

主权项

1. A motion guide device, comprising:
a track shaft having a rolling surface for rolling elements formed along a longitudinal direction thereof; a moving member that is assembled to the track shaft through intermediation of a large number of the rolling elements and has an endless circulation path for the rolling elements, the moving member being freely movable along the track shaft; a pair of first seal members that is mounted to both end surfaces of the moving member in a moving direction thereof and comes into sliding contact with a surface of the track shaft so as to close a gap between the track shaft and the moving member; and a second seal member that is provided along the rolling surface of the track shaft and comes into sliding contact with the surface of the track shaft so as to close the gap between the track shaft and the moving member, wherein the second seal member comprises:
a fixing substrate locked to the moving member; anda seal portion that is firmly fixed to the fixing substrate along the rolling surface of the track shaft, the seal portion comprising a seal lip portion that comes into sliding contact with the surface of the track shaft, the seal portion having both longitudinal ends that come into close contact with the pair of first seal members under a state in which the pair of first seal members is fixed to the moving member, wherein the seal portion further comprises a pair of extended seal portions that protrudes in a longitudinal direction of the fixing substrate from both longitudinal ends of the fixing substrate, wherein the pair of extended seal portions is compressed under the state in which the pair of first seal members is fixed to the moving member, wherein the seal portion is integrally formed with the pair of extended seal portions, and wherein the seal portion further comprises an extended end portion formed so as to cover an end portion of the fixing substrate from the longitudinal direction of the fixing substrate.
