Abstract
An apparatus for preventing urging rotation of a ball screw shaft in a linear working machine includes a housing. A compressive force stopper and a tensile force stopper is contained in an outer casing of the housing. The compressive force stopper and the tensile force stopper are pressed against the compressive force receptive rotation member and the tensile force receptive rotation member respectively. A coil spring is strictly wound around an outer periphery of the compressive force receptive rotation member and the tensile force receptive rotation member. Urging rotation of the ball screw shaft by external force in an axial direction is prevented by the compressive force receptive rotation member, the tensile force receptive rotation member and the coil spring.
