  • Patent number: 11897305
    Abstract: An active roll stabilizer includes a divided torsion bar (1) having torsion bar parts (2, 3) which are arranged one behind the other along a torsion bar axis. An actuator (4) for transmitting torsional torques to the torsion bar (1) is provided. An electric motor (7) and a transmission (6) connected to the electric motor (7) are arranged in an actuator housing (5). The actuator housing (5) is connected to the one torsion bar part (2) for conjoint rotation and the transmission (6) is connected, on the output side, to the other torsion bar part (3) for conjoint rotation. A motor housing (11) of the electric motor (7) is connected, by means of only one of the two axial ends of said motor housing, to the actuator housing (5) for conjoint rotation.

  • Publication number: 20230356769
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a linear actuator, the housing of which encloses a pushrod which is guided displaceably along a longitudinal axis. The linear actuator includes a linear travel sensor intended for determining a position of the pushrod. A housing-side position receiver of the linear travel sensor includes a receiver section extending along the longitudinal axis, and a pushrod-side position transmitter that interacts contactlessly with the position receiver. The position transmitter is made from an electrically conductive material, and a transmitter contour of the linear travel sensor is curved about at least one dimensional axis.

  • Publication number: 20230265916
    Abstract: A method for setting an axial preload force of a roller screw drive (3) which is rotatably mounted in a housing (2) by means of bearings (4, 5) which are axially spaced apart from one another. The housing (2) is split transversely with respect to the thrust rod (7) into a first and a second housing part (8, 9). The roller screw drive (3) is inserted with the two bearings (4, 5) into the second housing part (9). An axial preload force is applied which is transmitted from the first bearing (4) via the roller screw drive (3) to the second bearing (5). An axial load spacing (“X”) between the bearing supporting surface of the first bearing (4) and a second housing edge (31) of the second housing part (9) is measured. An adjusting nut (10) is screwed into the first housing part (8) until an axial adjustable spacing between the end-side adjusting nut supporting surface (12) and the first housing edge (30) of the first housing part (8) is the same size as the measured axial load spacing (“X”).

  • Publication number: 20220373066
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a planetary roller screw drive comprising a threaded spindle nut, a horizontal threaded spindled, a plurality of planetary rolling elements having a planetary rolling element profile, and at least two planetary guide rings. The threaded spindle is arranged concentrically in the planetary guide rings and the spindle nut. The planetary guide rings can be rotated relative to the threaded spindle and the planetary rolling elements are mounted so as to be rotatable about their associated planetary rolling element axis in the planetary guide rings and inside the spindle nut. The planetary rolling element profile of the planetary rolling elements meshes with the threaded spindle. The planetary guide rings are connected to a housing case for conjoint rotation, and the housing case has a housing case lateral surface on which a toothing is formed for coupling in a geared manner to with a continuous traction mechanism.
