In a linear guide arrangement ( ) with an elongated guide rail ( ) and a guide carriage ( ) that can travel thereon in the lengthwise direction (L) of the guide rail ( ), a surface of the guide rail ( ) facing the guide carriage ( ) is covered by a cover band ( ). A band securing element ( ) is placed in the vicinity of each of the two longitudinal ends ( ) of the guide rail ( ). The two band securing elements ( ) jointly secure the cover band ( ) at least with respect to its displacement in lengthwise direction (L) of the guide rail ( ), wherein each of the band securing elements ( ) at least impedes movement of the cover band ( ) relative to the guide rail ( ) directed towards the other band securing element ( ). At least one of the band securing elements ( ) can be non-positively engaged with the cover band ( ) as well as with the guide rail ( ).

Linear guide arrangement

For protecting a guide rail ( ) between two guide carriages with fixed spacing (A) running on the guide rail ( ), a covering means ( ) which adjoins each of the guide carriages ( ) and has a rigid configuration in the axial direction (X) over a substantial part of its length is provided between the two guide carriages ( ).

Guide unit

A linear guide device comprises a guide rail ( ) with a longitudinal axis ( ) and at least one guideway ( ), as well as a runner carriage ( ) guided at the guideway ( ), in the direction of the longitudinal axis. The guideway ( ) is covered before and after the runner carriage ( ) in the direction of the longitudinal axis ( ) substantially over its entire length by a cover strip ( ) which in one embodiment lies against two cover strip contact zones ( ), disposed on both sides of the guideway ( ), of the guide rail ( ). The guideway ( ) and the cover strip contact zones ( ) are in particular formed at a rail body of the guide rail ( ) which is of a uniform base material. The cover strip ( ) protects the guideway ( ) against contaminants which may cause damage to the guideway ( ) and impair the smooth running and guide precision of the runner assembly ( ) on the guide rail ( ).
