As a result, the rack 42 is displaced toward the second cover 208, and the air in the cylinder chamber between the piston body 222b and the second cover 208 is compressed and exhausted from the port 18b to a tube (not shown).
- pressurized fluid for example, compressed air
- a relatively large space can be provided between the piston bodies 222a and 222b. Similar effects can be obtained.
- one of the two linear operation mechanisms provided in the first embodiment can be omitted. That is, further downsizing is achieved, and in particular, an effect is obtained that enables installation in a narrower space.
- the tip ends of the adjustment screws 100a and 100b are screwed into the first cylinder hole 28a and the second cylinder hole 28b from the adjustment screw holes 23a and 23b provided in the first cover 14, respectively. I decided to do it.
- the adjustment screw 100a is all accommodated in the first cylinder hole 28a, and its tip protrudes from the space 73a toward at least one of the first cylinder chamber 75a and the second cylinder chamber 75b. Also good.
- a screw hole may be provided in the body 52a of the piston 48a, and the adjustment screw 100a may be screwed into the screw hole. Accordingly, the piston 48a and the adjustment screw 100a can be fixed integrally, and the position where the tip of the adjustment screw 100a abuts on the first cover 14 can be regulated depending on the degree of screwing. As a result, the stroke of the first linear operating mechanism 40a, that is, the rack 42 is adjusted.
- the adjustment screw 100a When the tip of the adjustment screw 100a is protruded into the second cylinder chamber 75b, the adjustment screw 100a may be screwed into the body 52b of the piston 48b in the same manner as described above. As a result, the position where the tip of the adjustment screw 100a and the second cover 16 come into contact with each other is regulated, and the stroke of the rack 42 is adjusted.
- the adjustment screw 100b can also be disposed in the second cylinder hole 28b in the same manner as the adjustment screw 100a.
