The invention relates to a rotary-table bearing assembly, including: a rotary-table bearing, which has an inner ring, an outer ring, and rolling elements arranged in one or more rows, which roll on the inner ring and on the outer ring; and in each case an assembly component having a clamping segment, to which assembly components the outer ring and the inner ring are connected. According to the invention, the clamping segment of at least one assembly component is designed radially elastic on the assembly component, and/or the outer ring and/or the inner ring has a radially elastic connecting segment, by which the particular ring is connected to the assembly component.

A ball screw mechanism includes a ball nut member that threadedly engages with a rack shaft via a plurality of balls, and a rolling bearing including an outer ring retained by a housing, an inner ring retained by the ball nut member, and a plurality of rolling elements. The ball screw mechanism moves the rack shaft in an axial direction relative to the housing through rotation of the ball nut member. A method for inspecting the ball screw mechanism includes fixing the outer ring to a fixing jig, pressing the rack shaft in the axial direction while restricting its rotation to rotate the ball nut member together with the inner ring relative to the outer ring, measuring an amount of a run-out of the rack shaft along with the rotation of the ball nut member, and determining whether the amount of the run-out satisfies a predetermined condition.

A machine tool is equipped with a second supply pipe having elasticity and having one end side fixed to a spindle head and the other end side fixed to an arm portion, a cover provided within a machining area, and rollers. When the spindle head is moved in a direction to come close to the arm portion, the second supply pipe is bent and then a portion of the second supply pipe is brought into abutment against the cover. The rollers are provided at a portion of the cover against which the second supply pipe is brought into abutment, and are configured to reduce friction between the cover and the second supply pipe when the second supply pipe moves relative to the cover in an abutment state against the cover.

One first drive unit that advances or recedes in the X-direction and that exerts a drive force in the X-direction to a movable table is arranged to exert a drive force to a center position in the Y-direction of one end part in the X-direction of the movable table. Two second drive units that advance or recede in the Y-direction that is perpendicular to the X-direction, and that exert the drive forces in the Y-direction to the movable table are arranged to be point-symmetric with respect to the center of the movable table as the center of symmetry. Plural plane guide bearings are arranged at positions such that the total sum of the moment forces of the respective plane guide bearings is zero on the center axis line in the X-direction of the movable table.
