ABSTRACT:
A process for assembling a linear motion bearing using retainerless saddle assembly. The retainerless saddle assembly is composed of a bearing body having escape-ball through holes steel balls, a pair of end caps and a ball holder. The assembling process includes the steps of attaching one of the pair of end caps at one end surface of the bearing body; and providing raceways within the bearing body. The diameter of each of the raceways is slightly larger than that of each of the steel balls. The assembling process further includes the steps of feeding the steel balls into the raceways and escape-ball through holes in the bearing body; covering an open end of the bearing body by another one of the pair of end caps so as to form a saddle; and holding the balls between the bearing body and the ball holder.
