  • Patent number: 10094463
    Abstract: A linear actuator is disclosed having a housing and a plurality of components arranged in the housing. The actuator may include at least one conducting component, a group of mechanical, non-conducting components including components of a spindle mechanism, and at least one bearing arrangement designed to support components of the spindle mechanism in the housing. The at least one conducting component may be separated from the group of mechanical, non-conducting components by at least one seal in such a way that two mutually separate spaces sealed off from one another are formed within the housing.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 4, 2016
    Date of Patent: October 9, 2018

  • Patent number: 7410299
    Abstract: A linear rolling bearing, having an approximately U-shaped guide carriage (2) which is arranged on a guide rail (1) and has two limbs (3) and a spine (4) which connects the two limbs (3), the two limbs (3) of the guide carriage (2) engaging around the guide rail (1), and rolling bodies rolling on raceways (5, 6) of the guide carriage (2) and of the guide rail (1) under preload, the raceways (5, 6) being formed on sides, which face one another, of the guide rail (1) and of the two limbs (3), and at least one sensor (9) being attached to the guide carriage (2), the sensor (9), which is embodied as a strain gauge (8), being attached centrally between the two limbs (3) to that side of the spine (4) of the guide carriage (2) which faces the guide rail (1).
