  • Publication number: 20110138947
    Abstract: A linear actuator that does not require a high assembly precision is provided. A linear actuator includes a motor portion including a rotary shaft, a rotor, and a stator, a first bearing portion that supports a first end of the rotary shaft, a locknut threadably engaged on the first end of the rotary shaft, and a ball screw mechanism including a ball screw nut screwed to the locknut and a ball screw threadably engaged with the ball screw nut. Gaps formed between an outer peripheral portion of the rotary shaft and an inner peripheral portion of the locknut, except a male thread portion formed on the rotary shaft and a female thread portion formed on the locknut threadably engaged with each other, are defined to have respective predetermined sizes.

  • Patent number: 7329973
    Abstract: The present invention provides a rotary electric machine, of which the occupied volume can be reduced and which allows a space in an electric apparatus equipped therewith to be utilized effectively. A slot insulator 15 is integrally formed with a holder mounting portion 25, a whole or major part of which is positioned on one of end faces of a yoke 11 of a stator core 7. A lead wire holder 27 includes a connection holding portion 27a for disposing a plurality of connections 30, in which lead-out wires of windings are connected with corresponding core wires 29a of lead wires 29, at a predetermined interval so that the connections do not contact with each other. The lead wire holder 27 is arranged so that the connection holding portion 27a is positioned over a part of the windings 9 and the holder mounting portion 25 when the lead wire holder is attached to the holder mounting portion 25.
