Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a linear actuator including drive means for driving a movable component assembly for actuating a tool controlled by an electronic module. In exemplary embodiments, the module comprises acquisition means for acquiring a quantity that is representative of the instantaneous force supplied by the drive means and/or the time derivative of this variable, and the electronic module is capable of controlling interruption means for interrupting the operation of the drive means if the variable does not exceed a first predetermined value during a first predetermined time period from the start of the driving of the movable component assembly, and/or if the derivative does not exceed a second predetermined value during the first predetermined time period from the start of the driving of the movable component assembly.

Abstract: This device (4) for electrically connecting an electric power supply source (8) such as a battery to an electric appliance (2), is characterized in that it comprises: at least two conductive elements (16, 18) in tended for electrically connecting the electric power supply source (8) to the electric appliance (2), each conductive element (16, 18) defining an aperture (58, 60); a shell (10) capable of receiving the conductive elements, the shell comprising a first half-shell (12) and a second half-shell (14), the shell defining at least two slots (42, 44) capable of receiving the conductive elements and of maintaining said conductive elements substantially parallel to each other, the shell further comprising at least one locking member (46) capable of engaging into the apertures of the conductive elements and of maintaining said conductive elements engaged in said slots of the shell. Application to a linear actuator intended to receive a removable tool.

Abstract: The invention relates to a linear actuator including a driver for driving a movable assembly between a rest position and an active position, and to an electronic module for controlling the driver. The actuator further includes a damper that damps the return to the rest position of the movable assembly. The electronic module is configured to acquire a representative quantity of the instantaneous force provided by the driver and of the time derivative of this quantity. The electronic module is also able to control the interruption of the operation of the driver if the derivative exceeds a first predetermined value during the phase for returning the movable assembly to the rest position.
