ABSTRACT:
A linear motion rolling contact guide unit includes a rail, a slider assembly and a plurality of rolling members interposed between the rail and the slider assembly so that the slider assembly can move along the rail in any direction. The slider assembly has a two-part structure and is comprised of a pair of first and second sub-assemblies with a low friction intermediate structure interposed therebetween. The first sub-assembly is slidably mounted on the rail and the second sub-assembly is mounted on the first sub-assembly such that the second sub-assembly can move relative to the first sub-assembly in the direction transverse to the longitudinal axis of the rail. Thus, when the present unit is applied to a guide unit of a heavy duty linear motion guide unit system, any error in lateral alignment can be absorbed by the present unit.
