Title:
ELECTRIC LINEAR MOTION ACTUATOR AND ELECTRIC BRAKE DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/185229
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A lock mechanism capable of locking and unlocking the rotation of a rotor shaft (12) of an electric motor (11) in an electric linear motion actuator comprises: a plurality of locking holes (41) circumferentially provided on the lateral surface of one gear (33) of a plurality of gears configuring a gear deceleration mechanism (13); a lock pin (42) provided so as to move forward and backward with respect to the locking holes (41) and engaged with the locking holes (41) to lock the gear (33) when moved forward; and a linear solenoid (43) for moving the lock pin (42) forward and backward. The lock pin (42) is integrally connected to a plunger (47) of the linear solenoid (43). The lock pin (42) is made of a nonmagnetic material. Thus, the magnetism of a magnetic circuit formed between a coil (45) and a plunger (47) of the linear solenoid (43) is prevented from leaking out through the lock pin (42) and a plunger (47) is reliably moved due to attractive force along with the energization of the coil (45), thereby improving the reliability of a locking operation.
