Means for Solving the Problems A linear guide device according to the present invention includes a moving block movably attached to a linear guide rail via a plurality of rolling elements that circulate through a predetermined rolling track. The linear guide device is characterized in that, in addition to the rolling track, the idle rail and the moving block are provided with a sliding surface that slides into contact when an external load of a predetermined value or more is applied.

While the acting external load is small, the rolling elements receive the load, and the total sum of the maximum loads received by the rolling elements increases as the external negative Gj increases. When the external load exceeds a predetermined value, the sliding surface will also receive the load, and if the external load increases beyond that, the load on the sliding surface will increase accordingly, but the load on the rolling elements will hardly be received.

Therefore, even if a large external load is applied, the load does not exceed a certain level on the rolling elements, and the rolling raceway surfaces are not indented or damaged. Therefore, compared to the conventional rolling method, it is possible to have a larger T pressure, and higher rigidity and precision can be achieved.
