Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A moving body drive apparatus drives a moving body in a linear direction by a drive source. The drive apparatus includes a relay rotating body moved in a traveling direction of the moving body by the drive source, and provided rotatably in a direction perpendicular to the traveling direction to relay drive power to the moving body; a rotation converting body arranged stationary relative to the moving body and engaging an outer circumference of the relay rotating body, for converting movement of the relay rotating body moved in the traveling direction into rotation; and a conveyance linear body adapted to be coupled to the moving body and engaging the outer circumference of the relay rotating body. The conveyance linear body moves in the traveling direction of the moving body by the relay rotating body rotating while being moved in the traveling direction of the moving body.
