A linear motion guiding device that is unlikely to cause a damage to a tongue unit of an end cap even when the linear motion guiding device is used under high-speed conditions is provided. An end cap (22) includes, at an end of a side of a raceway of an arc groove (222) that forms an outer peripheral surface of a direction changing passage (42), a tongue unit (25) that scoops up a ball (3) from a raceway (41) and guide the ball to a direction changing passage (42). A distal end surface (251) of the tongue unit includes a plane (251a) perpendicular to a direction along the raceway (41) and a circular-arc surface (251b) that caves into an arc shape from the plane. A curvature radius of a circular-arc surface is smaller than a radius of the ball. A center of a circle indicating a curvature of a circular-arc surface is present on a line shifted from a groove bottom line of the arc groove by at least an offset amount between a raceway groove (12) of a side of the guide rail and the raceway groove (212) of a side of the slider.

There is provided a linear motion guide device that is reduced in a contact surface pressure between a ball and a raceway groove so that an occurrence of an edge load can hardly occur, even when any of a pressing load, a tensile load, and a lateral load is applied to a slider. Upper flanks and lower flanks included in raceway grooves of a guide rail and a slider each include: a main arc portion having an arc-shaped section and placed generally in a center of the flank in a width direction; a groove shoulder side sub-arc portion having an arc-shaped section and formed continuously from a groove shoulder side of the main arc portion; and a groove bottom side sub-arc portion having an arc sectional shape and formed continuously from a groove bottom side of the main arc portion. Further, a curvature radius of the groove shoulder side sub-arc portion is different from a curvature radius of the groove bottom side sub-arc portion.

A rolling guide apparatus is disclosed, which has a first member 1, a second member 2 and a rolling body unit 5 disposed between the first member 1 and the second member 2, the second member being movable along the first member 1 upon rolling of the rolling body unit 5, the apparatus including: a guide path G of the rolling body unit 5 being configured to have: a rolling path R configured to have a rolling groove la formed in the first member 1 and a rolling groove 3a, formed in the second member 2, in a face-to-face relationship with the rolling groove la of the first member 1; and a circulation path C provided in the second member 2 and allowing communication between a start point and an end point of the rolling path R, the rolling body unit 5 being configured to have a plurality of first rolling bodies 5a and a plurality of second rolling bodies 5b each composed of an elastic material, at least one second rolling body 5b being always positioned in the circulation path C. The rolling guide apparatus easy to be assembled and capable of performing stable operations is thereby provided.

Provided is a linear motion guide device that is less noisy and excellent in operability. A concave groove of a return guide and a raceway groove of a slider are not smoothly continued at a connection portion therebetween, where a stepped portion is formed. At a groove bottom portion of the raceway groove of the slider and the neighboring portion thereof, the surface of the raceway groove of the slider is located to be closer to a curvature center of the raceway groove of the slider than the surface of the concave groove of the return guide is. At a groove shoulder portion of the raceway groove of the slider and the neighboring portion thereof, the surface of the concave groove of the return guide is located to be closer to the curvature center of the raceway groove of the slider than the surface of the raceway groove of the slider is.

An object is to provide a motion guide apparatus that can facilitate an assembly operation. An end member (4a, 4b) including an inner peripheral side of a direction changing path (2c) is placed on an end surface in a movement direction of a moving member body (3). At least one of a pair of the end members (4a and 4b) includes an opening (21) linking to the inner peripheral side of the direction changing path (2c) to load rolling elements (42) into a circulation path. Opposing surfaces (18) of the pair of the end members (4a and 4b) to the moving member body (3) are formed in flat surfaces. The pair of the end members (4a and 4b) molded integrally with a holding portion (5) is incorporated into the moving member body (3) in a direction orthogonal to the movement direction of the moving member body (3). A lid member (7a, 7b) closes the opening (21) in the end member (4a, 4b).

A linear guide with lubrication device includes: a elongate rail; a slide module slidably mounted on the elongate rail and including a slide block and two recirculation members, which are respectively mounted to two end faces of the slide block and include a plurality of recirculation passages, in which at least one of the recirculation members includes a lubricant reservoir and a fixing through hole formed therein such that the lubricant reservoir, the recirculation passage, and the fixing through hole are in communication with each other and the lubricant reservoir receives lubricant filled therein; an application member received in the fixing through hole; a transferring member covering the application member and the transferring member absorbing and transferring lubricant to the application member. Rolling bodies, when moving through the recirculation passage, may contact the application member to have lubricant applied thereto.

According to one embodiment, an X-ray diagnostic apparatus includes a first arm, a second arm, a holding structure, an X-ray tube and an X-ray detector. The first arm rotates by a first rotating shaft and slides along a first arc-like slide axis relatively to the first rotating shaft. The second arm rotates by a second rotating shaft and slides along a second arc-like slide axis relatively to the second rotating shaft. The holding structure is connected with a first arm side and configured to hold the second arm. The X-ray tube and the X-ray detector are installed on the second arm.
