Title:
IMPACT MITIGATING STRUCTURE OF CONTACT STRIP PIECE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/043798
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
In the present invention, a slider (S1) is moved slightly in the L1 direction while in the state of both lateral surfaces of the slider (S1) making contact on the inclined surface of the impact mitigation section (12k) of adjacent contact strip pieces (12a). As a result, the inclined surface of the impact mitigation section (12k) of the contact strip piece (12a) on the side to which the slider (S1) is approaching slides downwards relative to one lateral surface of the slider (S1). Also, the inclined surface of the impact mitigation section (12k) of the contact strip piece (12a) on the side from which the slider (S1) is moving away slides up relative to the other lateral surface of the slider (S1). As a result, the slider (S1) does not become stuck at the level difference between adjacent contact strip pieces (12a), and since the impact mitigating section (12k) mitigates the impact arising between the contact strip pieces (12a) and the slider (S1), the slider (S1) smoothly transfers from one contact strip piece (12a) to another adjacent contact strip piece (12a).
