Particularly, those having high rigidity and light weight have a small motion inertial force and a shaft. Is excellent in high-speed reciprocating motion in a direction (for example, reciprocating motion of the lens sesame 2 when the lens sesame 2 is projected from the outer sesame 1 to release the molded lens). The arrangement of the balls 9 on the peripheral wall of the ball holding cylinder 10 includes a staggered pattern of 5 rows (see FIG. 1), a parallel array of 3 rows (see FIG. 2), and a spiral shape in the central axis direction. It is preferable that the lines are arranged in a plurality of columns in the direction.

Slightly (for example, several μm) from the gap X between the lens sesame 2 (4) and the outer sesame 1 (3) holding it.
By using the ball 9 having a large diameter, the elasticity of the ball 9 is used (a slight preload state is maintained) to match the central axes Y of the lens sesame 2 (4) and the outer sesame 1 (3). In addition, it is possible to secure a uniform space Z between the frames of the lens sesame 2 (4) and the outer sesame 1 (3).

It is desirable that the hardness of the ball 9 is slightly lower than the hardness of the outer sesame 1 and 3 and the lens sesame 2 and 4 on which the ball 9 is rolling. The rotation of the large number of balls 9 allows the lens sesame 2 (4) to move smoothly and stably in the axial direction with respect to the outer sesame 1 (3). Further, in this way, a large number of balls 9 are dispersed in the ball holding cylinder 10,
By holding, the fluctuating load and the eccentric load on the outer sesame 1 and 3 and the lens sesame 2 and 4 are small, and the accurate linear movement of the lens sesame 2 (4) is possible.

The center axes Y of the outer sesame 1 and the lens sesame 2 are aligned with each other through the ball retainer 8, the center axes Y of the outer sesame 3 and the lens sesame 4 are aligned, and the fitting recess 5 is centered on the lens sesame 2. Since the fitting convex portion 6 is formed around the lens sesame 4 as a center,
By tapering the stationary side outer sesame 3 and the stationary side sesame 3, the moving side lens sesame 2 and the stationary side lens sesame 4 are inevitably aligned with each other. Then, the optical lens 11 can be molded by injecting a molten transparent resin into the cavity formed by the lens molding surfaces 2a and 4a of the lens sesame 2 and 4 to fill and hold the resin.
