ABSTRACT:
A linear ball bearing mounting flange, which is provided on at least one end of an outer cylinder of a linear ball bearing and is used for mounting the linear ball bearing on a machine or apparatus. The flange includes a flange-shaped structure having a thick wall and provided separately from the outer cylinder. The flange-shaped structure has an annular recess extending from one end surface of the flange-shaped structure along the inner peripheral surface thereof; a peripheral wall on the inner peripheral side of the recess, which has a jagged structure in which projections and recesses are alternately arranged along the circumferential direction; and a claw projecting inward from the inner peripheral wall, which is formed at the leading end of each of the projecting portions of the jagged structure. When the flange is inserted around the outer cylinder of the linear ball bearing, the claws are locked in a claw insertion hole provided in the outer cylinder. Such a linear ball bearing mounting flange, which can be simply, easily mounted on the outer cylinder of the linear ball bearing, can be manufactured at a low cost.
