A ball screw comprises a screw shaft, a nut assembled with the screw shaft, a number of balls disposed in the ball rolling passage formed by a ball rolling groove formed to the screw shaft and a loaded ball rolling groove formed to the nut, a number of spacers disposed between the balls in the ball rolling passage, and a circulation member for circulating the balls and spacers in accordance with a relative motion of the nut with respect to the screw shaft. The circulation member is provided with a scoop-up groove for scooping the balls, when contacting the ball rolling in the ball rolling passage, at both side edge portions of the scoop-up groove and is also provided with a spacer scoop-up portion which contacts and scoops the spacer moving in the ball rolling passage without contacting the balls. Such circulation member will be preferably utilized for a motion guide device such as linear motion guide or spline shaft.

A rolling element interference preventer for a guide device prevents a number of rolling elements rolling at regular intervals in a continuous circulation path of the guide device from interfering with each other. The rolling element interference preventer is formed of a thermoplastic resin elastomer having a physical property in accordance with an expression, (AnullB)nullCnull18, where A represents a 10% elongation stress, B represents a tensile strength, and C represents a bending modulus of elasticity.

A wiper ring to be applied to a nut of a ball screw having a screw shaft comprises a plurality of segments each constituted as independent element having a seal portion to be contacted to the screw shaft, support pins extending in an axial direction of the screw shaft so as to correspond to the segments, respectively, the segments being arranged in a circumferential direction of the screw shaft to be rotatable about the pins, the pins being connected to each other through support members so as to limit the relative movement of the respective pins, and a spring member for urging the segments arranged circumferential direction of the screw shaft so as to be directed towards radially central side of the screw shaft.

The present invention offers a universal guide device capable of using the sliders of conventional straight guide devices intact. The universal guide device does not need a different slider for each different radius of track rail. The universal guide device can be manufactured at lower cost than heretofore. This universal guide device in accordance with the invention comprises a track rail and sliders mounted to the rail via balls circulating through endless circular paths. The rail has at least one straight region and at least one curved region shaped in an arc with a given radius of curvature. Each of the sliders is of saddlelike cross section. The sliders span the rail. The sliders have ball-rolling surfaces shaped linearly. The curved region of the rail is set narrower than the straight region of the rail.
