  • Linear actuator and method for producing a linear actuator
    Patent number: 9759296
    Abstract: A linear actuator comprising a spindle-based linear drive (1) having an inner threaded spindle (5) and an outer element (2) surrounding the threaded spindle (5), in which the threaded spindle (5) can be moved in the axial direction; and a telescopic housing (20) with a first telescope part (21) and a second telescope part (22), which is surrounded at least in part by the first telescope part (21). On its side facing the first telescope part (21), the second telescope part (22) has an adapter part (24) that is connected rotationally fixedly to the second telescope part (22) and has a central opening. The linear drive has a connecting element (30) that is mounted on the outer element (2) and comprises snap elements (31) that are engaged with the central opening of the adapter part (24) in such a manner that the connecting element (30) is held in the adapter part (24).
