Patent attributes
A device for holding a linear guide rail R along a linearly extending vertical reference surface L formed on an installation surface f provided with a vertical counter surface F, including a pressing plate 5, and first and second pressure contacting piece 7 and 6. The pressing plate 5 has a central fitting hole 11 and inwardly downwardly tapered side surfaces 10b, 10a which are face-to-face engageable with tapered side faces 15, 14 of the first and second pieces 7 and 6. When a screw 31 inserted through the fitting hole 11 of the pressing plate is tightened into the female thread hole 30 of the installation surface f, the pressing plate is moved downward so that the first and second pieces 7 and 6 are moved to press the guide rail R positioned on the installation surface f between the reference surface L and the second piece 6 against the reference surface L.
