- 超音波信号と電気信号を相互変換するトランスデューサと前記トランスデューサを移動させるための駆動力を発生させるモータとを備える超音波プローブにおいて前記トランスデューサの移動をガイドするための装置であって、
前記トランスデューサの両端と所定間隔をおいて対向して設けられる、凸形状の一対のガイドレールと、
前記トランスデューサの両端にそれぞれ対向する前記ガイドレールの側面に長手方向に形成され、側壁と下壁を有する、凸形状のガイド溝と、
前記トランスデューサの両端に設けられ、前記ガイド溝内に回転中心軸が水平方向に配置されて収容され、前記トランスデューサの上下方向の荷重を支えながら前記ガイド溝の下壁に接触して転走運動するベアリングと、
前記トランスデューサの両端と前記ガイドレールとの間の間隔を一定に維持させるための間隔維持手段とを備え、
前記間隔維持手段は、前記トランスデューサの両端に設けられ、回転中心軸が前記ベアリングの回転中心軸と直角をなすように配置されて前記ガイド溝内に収容され、前記ガイド溝の側壁に接触して転走運動する補助ベアリングであることを特徴とする超音波プローブのトランスデューサ移動ガイド装置。
