Abstract

Disclosed is one example of a sliding device allowing for reliable sliding of two members closing an opening of a fixed rail. The sliding device includes: a fixed rail including an opening arranged in a longitudinal direction of the fixed rail; a movable rail slidable relative to the fixed rail in a state where at least part of the movable rail is exposed through the opening; a first closure member slidable relative to the fixed rail and capable of closing part of the opening, the first closure member receiving a pressing force from the movable rail to thereby slide; and a second closure member slidable relative to the fixed rail and capable of closing part of the opening in cooperation with the first closure member, the second closure member being in sliding contact with the first closure member and receiving a pressing force from the movable rail to thereby slide.
