  • Patent number: 9765867
    Abstract: An electromechanical actuator includes a first electric motor, a first motion conversion mechanism, a second motion conversion mechanism, and a rotation restriction mechanism for the second motion conversion mechanism. The first motion conversion mechanism includes a first member that is rotated by an output of the first electric motor and a second member that is fastened to the first member. The second motion conversion mechanism includes a third member that is movable integrally with the first member and a fourth member that is fastened to the third member. The rotation restriction mechanism is configured to be capable of selectively restricting and allowing rotation of the fourth member in accordance with movement of the third member.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9685838
    Abstract: An electromechanical actuator is provided whose structure is simplified and made small, and with which an output portion can be driven even if a jammed state occurs in a screw mechanism. An electromechanical actuator is configured that includes an electric motor having a first rotor portion and a second rotor portion capable of relative rotation with respect to each other, and a jam relief mechanism having a first conversion portion having a first screw mechanism capable of converting rotational force of the first rotor portion into thrust force and moving an output portion back and forth, a sliding support mechanism which can transmit the rotational force of the first rotor portion to the first conversion portion, and a second conversion portion having a second screw mechanism which moves the output portion back and forth together with the first conversion portion.
