Abstract: A linear drive, with a drive unit containing a drive housing with a single-piece guide body, wherein guide tracks are formed on the guide body for the linear guidance of an output slide. The guide body is made in one piece as a bent sheet metal part and has several leg sections bent relative to one another at bending areas, wherein two of these leg sections bent relative to one another at bending areas, wherein two of these leg sections lie opposite one another and form guide legs which have the guide tracks. A method for the manufacture of such a linear drive.

Abstract: A linear drive has a drive housing and a carriage guide for relative motion in the direction of a principal axis. The carriage possesses a row of openings on it with several first carriage openings, whereas the drive housing has a row of openings on the housing side with mutually spaced first housing openings. Given suitable positioning of the carriage it is possible for attachment screws to be inserted right through the first carriage openings and inserted into the first housing openings. Second carriage openings belonging in addition to the row of openings on the carriage side are designed in the form of threaded openings, which render possible screwing in of attachment screws, that are inserted in the first housing openings of a further similar linear drive directly fitted to the carriage in a piggy-back fashion, through the first carriage openings thereof.

Abstract: A linear drive has a drive housing on which a carriage is able to run. For guiding the carriage two guide units are provided, which jointly lie in a guide plane extending perpendicularly to the upright axis of the drive housing. The guide units flank the carriage on the longitudinal side, the guide plane being arranged offset in the direction of the upright axis in relation to a drive space formed in the drive housing, drive means for the carriage being located in the drive space. At an edge section on the longitudinal side the carriage overlaps at least a part of the drive space.

Abstract: A linear drive having a drive housing on which a carriage runs to an adjustable extent. The carriage covers over a channel-like housing recess, which is delimited by two mutually side wall. For limiting the stroke of the carriage a first abutment is provided on it within the housing recess, such first abutment cooperating is with a first counter abutment, that is so inserted from the outside into an opening in the one side that it extends into the housing recess.

Abstract: A piston rod-less linear drive whose housing is provided with a linear guide on which a guide slide runs. The guide slide is drivingly connected by way of a dog with a drive part within the housing. The dog extends through a longitudinal slot in the housing, such slot being so arranged that its plane extends obliquely in relation to a guide plane, which is defined by the longitudinal direction and the transverse direction of the linear guide. Furthermore, a housing is proposed which is particularly suitable for the linear drive.

Abstract: A linear drive comprising an elongated housing, whose interior space contains a drive part adapted to move in the longitudinal direction. The housing furthermore has a longitudinal slot, which is provided with a sealing tape extending in the interior space, said tape being lifted clear of the longitudinal slot by at least one guide face arrangement at the drive part. A guided slide is arranged outside the interior space, such slide being coupled with the drive part extending through the longitudinal slot. The guide face arrangement is provided on the drive part and furthermore the part of the entraining member fitting into the receiving socket is in the form of an entraining finger having a free end thereof directed toward the sealing tape.

Abstract: A linear drive comprising a housing, which possesses a cylinder barrel having a longitudinal slot. The interior space of such cylinder barrel is closed by closure plugs axially inserted into the interior space. At the region facing the longitudinal slot the closure plug is provided with a flat, at which it engages the internal face of a sealing tape associated with the longitudinal slot in a fashion preventing relative rotation. The closure plug is anchored by a securing pin on the cylinder barrel.

Abstract: A rod-less linear drive whose housing (2) delimits an interior space (4), in which a drive part (5) is located. The housing (2) is provided with a slot-like longitudinal opening (24), which on either side is flanked by a housing limb (25 and 26). An entraining part (35) connected with the drive part (5) projects through the longitudinal opening (24) to the outside, where it is kinematically coupled with a slide (36). The slide is supported by means of a guide means (41) on the housing (2), one of the two housing limbs (26) being extended through and past the longitudinal opening (24) and on the side, facing the other housing limb (26), bears the guide means (41).
