The objective is to provide a dustproof structure for a
linear actuator that completely prevents dust from entering and has a dustproof and splashproof structure (IP65) that can withstand water jets. Furthermore, it aims to provide a dustproof structure for a
linear actuator that can be used even in a vacuum
processing chamber. [Solution] A dustproof structure for a
linear actuator in which a rectangular movable body having a mouth-shaped end face moves in a
linear motion, functionally connected to a
ball screw shaft via a ball nut that screws onto the
ball screw shaft by the rotation of the
ball screw shaft located between a first end plate and a second end plate, A first
bellows that covers the entire circumference from one end face of the
moving body to the first end plate, and a sealing material that seals the one end face and the end face of the first
bellows, A second
bellows that covers the entire circumference from the other end face of the
moving body to the second end plate, and a sealing material that seals the other end face and the end face of the second bellows, The device includes an
electric motor fixing and dustproof cover provided on the outside of the first end plate, which covers the entire circumference from the
coupling-side end face of the
drive motor, which is connected by a
coupling to one end of the ball screw shaft extending from the through hole of the first end plate, to the first end plate, fixing the
drive motor to the first end plate and preventing dust from entering the through hole.
