A piston rod-less linear drive (1) has a housing (2) with a longitudinal
slot (5) having a moving force coupling member extending through it. The
outer slot opening (7) is provided with at least one covering band (33),
which is fixed at an attachment section (34) on a longitudinal side (37)
of the outer slot opening (7). The covering band ( )33) furthermore
has a pivoting covering section (35), which is provided with detent means
(46), which render possible a releasable detent function in a covering position
covering the outer slot opening. Actuating means kinematically coupled with the
force coupling member may act on the covering band in order to cause the detent
locking action.
