  • Patent number: 11105404
    Abstract: An electromechanical linear actuator may include: a containment structure; a pushing member designed to translate relative to the containment structure to at least partially come out of the containment structure during operation of the electromechanical linear actuator; a mechanical reduction apparatus in the containment structure and configured to rotate about an axis of rotation; motor means in the containment structure operably connected with the mechanical reduction apparatus to rotate about the axis of rotation; a shaft inserted in the mechanical reduction apparatus and connected to the pushing member, wherein the shaft is mechanically connected with the mechanical reduction apparatus so that a rotational movement of the mechanical reduction apparatus will cause the shaft to translate along the axis of rotation; and a rotation-preventing mechanism operable on the shaft to prevent the shaft from rotating about the axis of rotation.

  • Publication number: 20200103009
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates an electromechanical linear actuator (1) of the type comprising a containment structure (2), a pushing member (3) designed to translate relative to the containment structure (2) to at least partially project out of the containment structure during operation of the actuator, a mechanical reduction apparatus (4) disposed in the containment structure (2) and rotating about an axis of rotation (X), motor means (5) arranged in the containment structure (2) and operably connected with the mechanical reduction apparatus (4) to rotate it about the axis of rotation (X), a shaft (6) inserted in the mechanical reduction apparatus (4) and connected to the pushing member (3), the shaft (6) being mechanically connected with the mechanical reduction apparatus (4) such that a rotational movement of the mechanical reduction apparatus (4) will cause a translational movement of the shaft (6) along the axis of rotation (X) and a rotation-preventing mechanism (7) operable on the shaft (6) to prevent
