ABSTRACT:
A positioning table assembly includes a table slidably mounted on a pair of guide rails. The table is divided into a central section and a peripheral section which are connected through a connecting section. A traction shaft of a drive motor extends through a center slot formed in the central section. A piezoelectric device is mounted on the table to displace the central section relative to the peripheral section. When the piezoelectric device is energized, the central section is displaced to establish a frictional contact between the traction shaft in rotation and the central section so that the table may move in either direction depending on the direction of rotation of the traction shaft.
