Abstract: An actuator suitable for use as an ejection jack for deploying an aircraft mounted ram air turbine is provided. The actuator utilizes a spring powered ballscrew operatively coupled to a centrifugally actuated brake in such a manner that the brake limits the speed of reciprocating movement of the ballscrew. The problems of fluid leakage and slow deployment at cold temperatures, often encountered in prior ejection jacks utilizing hydraulic dashpots for speed control, are thus eliminated. The actuator also includes a locking device for locking the actuator in either an extended or a retracted position. Features are also provided for attaching an external drive mechanism in a manner allowing the ballscrew to be utilized for resetting the actuator to an initial non-extended position.

Abstract: Overheating of hydraulic fluid in a hydraulic motor system subject to aiding loads can be avoided without paying a weight or volume penalty by providing a return port (64) adapted to be connected to the system return (22) in fluid communication with a cavity (46) within an hydraulic motor housing (32) that houses the swash plate (34). A pressure relief valve (62) is connected to the supply port (38) of the hydraulic motor (30) as well as to the return port (64) and is operative to open when the pressure at the supply port (38) increases as a result of an aiding load so as to allow recirculation of hydraulic fluid through the motor (30). By placing the swash plate cavity (46) in the recirculation line, increased heat sink capacity is added to the system without increasing weight or volume.
