Abstract

A guide mechanism is provided with first guide rails each having a circular arc-shaped cross section to be installed to first long grooves each having a circular arc-shaped cross section formed on an inner wall surface of a frame, and second guide rails each having a circular arc-shaped cross section to be installed to second long grooves each having a circular arc-shaped cross section formed on side surfaces of a slider opposed to the inner wall surface of the frame. Accordingly, the arrangement of ball-rolling grooves in the slider can be performed more freely, and it is possible to mitigate the concentration of stress exerted by external force.
