A tape-shaped product and a belt for a ball chain are provided. A tape-shaped product of synthetic resin includes a tape of a thermoplastic resin, and a preliminarily stretched fibrous member of a thermoplastic resin contained therein along longitudinally parallel edges or in proximity thereto of the tape. A belt for a ball chain, includes a tape-shaped product of synthetic resin formed by injection molding, together with a fibrous member as an insert of a resin of the same kind as that of the fibrous member so that the fibrous member is disposed along the longitudinal edges or in proximity thereto, ball-insetting holes are disposed at equal intervals, and ball-retaining projections are disposed around the holes.

A cage segment for a rolling-element bearing cage includes first and second side elements connected by a bridge extending in a longitudinal direction. A first attaching element on the first side element extends away from the bridge in a first direction parallel to the longitudinal axis and a second attaching element on the second side element extends away from the bridge in a second direction parallel to the longitudinal axis. The first and second attaching elements are configured to receive a wire or cable for connecting the cage segments to other cage segments, and the first attaching element is offset from the longitudinal axis in a first direction by a first distance and the second attaching element is offset from the longitudinal axis in a second direction opposite the first direction by a second distance.

Provided is a motion guide device, which includes: a track rail; rolling elements; a moving block, which has an endless circulation path; and a holding belt having pockets, wherein the holding belt has a pair of end portions opposed to each other through intermediation of a free rolling element in the endless circulation path, and wherein a condition of (XY)Z>(B+C)A>0 is satisfied, where: A represents a path length of the endless circulation path; B represents a total length of the holding belt; C represents a diameter of the free rolling element; X represents a diameter of each of the pockets; Y represents a diameter of each of the rolling elements; and Z represents the number of the rolling elements arrayed in the holding belt.

Provided is a motion guide device, which alleviates a tensile force acting on a holding belt when the holding belt circulates in an endless circulation path together with rolling elements, thereby being capable of preventing uneven wear of the holding belt. The motion guide device, includes: a track rail; a large number of rolling elements configured to roll on the track rail; a moving block, which has an endless circulation path for the rolling elements, and is configured to freely move along the track rail; and a holding belt having pockets, which are arrayed at predetermined intervals, and are configured to receive the rolling elements, is incorporated into the endless circulation path, and is configured to move in the endless circulation path together with the rolling elements, wherein the holding belt has a pair of end portions opposed to each other through intermediation of a free rolling element in the endless circulation path, and wherein a condition of (XY)Z>(B+C)A>0 is satisfied, where: A represents a path length of the endless circulation path; B represents a total length of the holding belt; C represents a diameter of the free rolling element; X represents a diameter of each of the pockets; Y represents a diameter of each of the rolling elements; and Z represents the number of the rolling elements arrayed in the holding belt.

A rolling bearing includes an inner ring, an outer ring, a plurality of rolling elements disposed between the inner ring and the outer ring, and a plurality of cage segments separating circumferentially adjacent ones of the plurality of rolling elements. Each of the cage segments has an axial bridge portion and side plates at axially opposite ends of the bridge portion, each of the side plates having a convex end and a concave end circumferentially spaced from the convex end. The convex end of a first one of the side plates contacts the concave end of a second one of the side plates.
