Abstract
An improved transport device comprises a novel guide rail (3). Carriages (5) can be moved along the guide rail (3), which carriages comprise guide elements (25a, 25b; 25c, 25d) for this purpose, which elements are supported on rail guiding surfaces (17a, 17b; 17c, 17d) of the guide rail (3). The guide rail is held in a prestressed and/or damped manner with variable guide elements (25a, 25b; 25c, 25d) comprising, for example, sliding pieces or running rollers at the respective spacing of the ?sic!. As a result, the spacing distance between the rail guiding surfaces (17a, 17b; 17c, 17d) can automatically be adjusted to the variable, in each case given, spacing of the guide elements (25a, 25b; 25c, 25d).
