Abstract: A ball screw device has: a screw shaft rotationally moving during use, a nut having a protruding non-rotating side engaging portion at an end portion on one side in an axial direction, the nut linearly moving during use, balls arranged between a shaft-side and nut-side grooves, and a driving member fixed to the screw shaft having an arc-shaped rotating-side engaging groove portion into which the non-rotating side engaging portion can be inserted in the axial direction, and which can be engaged with the non-rotating side engaging portion in a circumferential direction.

Abstract: The nut has a first fitting surface provided with a first retaining ring groove on an end portion on the other side in the axial direction; the fitting cylinder, at an end portion on the one side in the axial direction, has a second fitting surface provided with a second retaining ring groove in a portion facing the first retaining ring groove with regard to a radial direction; and the retaining ring is engaged so as to span between the first retaining ring groove and the second retaining ring groove.

Abstract: A ball screw device comprising: a screw shaft, a nut, balls arranged between the shaft-side ball thread groove and the nut-side ball thread groove, a stopper including: a boss portion fitted to the fitting shaft portion of the screw shaft, and a second engaging portion protruding in the radial direction from the boss portion and engageable with a first engaging portion of the nut in the circumferential direction, and a holding member arranged adjacent to one side in the axial direction of the stopper, such that an axial load can be transmitted between the screw portion of the screw shaft and the holding member through the stopper without applying a moment to the stopper.

Abstract: A ball screw device that is capable of transmitting an axial load between the screw portion and the holding member without shortening the life of the ball screw device is provided. The stopper 5 is externally fitted to the fitting shaft portion 10 of the screw shaft 2 having an outer diameter smaller than that of the screw portion 9, which is provided adjacent to one side in the axial direction of the screw portion 9 provided with the shaft-side ball thread groove 12 on the outer-circumferential surface, so as not to be able to rotate relative to each other. The driving member 6 which is a holding member is arranged adjacent to the one side in the axial direction of the stopper 5 such that the stopper 5 is held in the axial direction between the driving member 6 and the screw portion 9. An axial load is transmitted between the driving member 6 and the screw portion 9 without applying a moment to the stopper 5.

Abstract: The ball screw device has a nut having a guide concave groove on the outer-circumferential surface capable of engaging with a rotation restraining member in the circumferential direction, a housing provided with an insertion hole having a retaining concave groove on the inner-circumferential surface capable of engaging with the rotation restraining member in the circumferential direction, the rotation restraining member configured by a shaft-shaped member extending in the axial direction, the rotation restraining member having an outside portion in the radial direction arranged inside the retaining concave groove and an inside portion in the radial direction arranged inside the guide concave groove, so as to be able to slide in the axial direction.

Abstract: A ball screw device having a screw shaft rotating during use, a nut moving linearly during use, balls, a fitting cylinder fixed to the nut, a housing, and an anti-rotation member, a first member, which is one of the nut and the fitting cylinder, having a retaining concave portion engaging with a radially inner portion of the anti-rotation member and including a closed surface, an insertion hole of the housing having a guide concave groove engaging with a radially outer portion of the anti-rotation member, the radially inner portion held between the closed surface and an axially end surface a second member, which is the other of the nut and the fitting cylinder, the radially outer portion being able to slide in the guide concave groove.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a chain drive system that can reduce sliding resistance between a chain and a guide shoe, minimize increase of sliding resistance over time, and reduce production cost. Provided is a chain drive system 100 including a plurality of sprockets 101 and 102 over which a chain 130 passes over, and one or more guides 110 and 120 that guide the chain 130. The guides 110 and 120 include integral or separate guide shoes 111 and 121 each having a chain running surface. The chain running surfaces include, in part thereof, a lubricated area 114 where a solid lubricant P is held.

Abstract: A chain guide is provided that allows for stable running of a chain, causes less wear or damage on the inner surface of mounting holes or on mounting shafts, and improves the durability without increasing production cost. The guide shoe includes a guide rail and a unit holding part that accommodates a reinforcing unit inserted thereinto from the backside of the guide rail. The reinforcing unit includes a plate and a spacer. The plate and spacer are aligned in a guide width direction, so that a plate through hole and a spacer through hole are continuous in the guide width direction, and are disposed in the unit holding part 22.
