A linear guiding device where noise characteristics are improved by
reducing traveling noise and operability of a slider body is smoothed,
and where movement braking can be improved by reducing rolling body
passage vibration. Crowning 24 with a curved surface having a
predetermined curvature radius R is provided on an end section of a
rolling body raceway groove 11 of a bearing block 24. A crowning amount C
of the crowning 24 is set to a value C>H.sub.max greater that the
value of a maximum elastic deformation amount H.sub.max of a rolling body
B elastically deformed in a rolling body rolling path 14 by a preload or
an external load. By this, even when a large load acts on a bearing block
2A or a large installation error occurs by skewing etc., the rolling body
B smoothly rolls without an elastic deformation amount of the rolling
body B rolling on the end section side of the rolling body raceway groove
11 becoming greater than the crowning amount C. As a consequence,
significant worsening of a noise level and impairment of operability can
be prevented.
