Abstract: In the ball screw device, the circulation path that returns balls from the end point to the start point of the load path includes a return path, scooping paths, and connecting paths. The scooping path has an arc-shaped center line that is curved outward in the radial direction as going toward the reference imaginary flat plane including the center axis of the screw shaft and the center line of the return path in the circumferential direction. The connecting path is arranged on the reference imaginary flat plane and includes a straight path having a linear center line extending in a direction orthogonal to the center axis of the screw shaft. When the radius of curvature of the center line of the scooping path is R1, the scooping angle is θ, and the entire length of the straight path is S, R1 cos(90°−θ)+S is made larger than the diameter of the balls.

Abstract: To provide a nut that can suppress increase in the number of components. The nut according to the present disclosure includes a nut main body and a circulation component. The nut main body includes a housing part having a bow shape when viewed from an axial direction, a seat surface, a through hole, and a pair of side surfaces. The circulation component includes a circulation component main body, two arm parts extending toward both sides in a seat surface direction from the circulation component main body, ribs projecting from the respective two arm parts, and caulking parts obtained by caulking the ribs. Recessed parts that the caulking parts enter are disposed on the pair of side surfaces. A ball passage is disposed in the circulation component main body.
