ABSTRACT:
In a linear guide bearing apparatus wherein a separator is interposed between adjacent balls K and K moving following a curved circulating path8, and the ball K contacts concave faces W of the separator T at both ends in an axial line direction and at the same time the ball K rolls as contacting a guide face8aof an outside guiding member5and a guide face8bof an inside guiding member9, the separator has an outer diameter larger than a maximum outer diameter Lφ under a condition where the ball rolls as simultaneously contacting both curved faces8a, 8bof the inside and the outside of the curved circulating path8, and the radius of curvature of the guiding face8bin the curved circulating path8is reduced to a size not contacting the separator T.
