Motion guide device
A motion guide device ( 1 ) includes: a track body that extends in a longitudinal direction; a movable body ( 20 ) that is mounted on the track body and is movable along the track body; an encoder scale that is disposed at the track body in the longitudinal direction; a sensor ( 50 ) that is disposed opposite to the encoder scale; and a folder ( 60 ) that is disposed at an end face of the movable body ( 20 ) in the longitudinal direction, houses the sensor ( 50 ) in a width direction of the track body, and holds the sensor such that the sensor faces the encoder scale.
1. A motion guide device comprising:
a track body that extends in a longitudinal direction;
a movable body mounted on the track body and configured to be movable along the track body;
an encoder scale disposed at the track body in the longitudinal direction;
a sensor disposed opposite to the encoder scale; and
a folder disposed at an end face of the movable body in the longitudinal direction and configured to house the sensor in a width direction of the track body and hold the sensor such that the sensor faces the encoder scale, wherein
the folder comprises a guide part that guides the sensor in the width direction of the track body, and
the guide part is a fitting part which slidably receives the sensor into the folder in the width direction of the track body.
2. The motion guide device according to claim 1 , wherein the folder includes a holder that positions the sensor in the width direction.
3. The motion guide device according to claim 2 , wherein the holder includes a magnet part that attracts and holds the sensor.
4. The motion guide device according to claim 3 , wherein the magnet part is changeable in position in the width direction.
5. The motion guide device according to claim 4 , further comprising a dust-proof seal disposed on the end face of the folder in the longitudinal direction and configured to prevent foreign materials from intruding between the track body and the movable body.
6. The motion guide device according to claim 3 , further comprising a dust-proof seal disposed on the end face of the folder in the longitudinal direction and configured to prevent foreign materials from intruding between the track body and the movable body.
7. The motion guide device according to claim 2 , further comprising a dust-proof seal disposed on the end face of the folder in the longitudinal direction and configured to prevent foreign materials from intruding between the track body and the movable body.
8. The motion guide device according to claim 1 , further comprising a dust-proof seal disposed on the end face of the folder in the longitudinal direction and configured to prevent foreign materials from intruding between the track body and the movable body.
9. The motion guide device according to claim 1 , wherein the folder includes a holder that positions the sensor in the width direction.
10. The motion guide device according to claim 1 , further comprising a dust-proof seal disposed on the end face of the folder in the longitudinal direction and configured to prevent foreign materials from intruding between the track body and the movable body.
