A linear motion transmission apparatus with a chain comprises at least one flexible link and a plurality of spacers, the spacers are equidistantly spaced apart and connected by the link, each two neighboring spacers define a holding space for holding rolling elements, each of the spacers has two separated arcuate retaining portions used to contact and hold the rolling elements. A lubricating-oil passage is formed between each of the spacers and the rolling elements to guide the lubricating oil from the non-load area of the outer surface of the rolling element to the load area, allowing the load area to be lubricated sufficiently. |
