Title:
LINEAR ACTUATOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/015730
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Linear actuator comprising an electric motor (6), which through a transmission (12) drives a spindle unit comprising at least one spindle (10) with a spindle nut (13). A tubular adjustment element (3) in connection with the spindle unit is displaced either outwards or inwards depending on the direction of rotation of the spindle unit. A brake in the shape of a coil spring (21) is arranged in connection with a cylindrical element (15) for retaining the tubular adjustment element (3) in a given position when the power for the electric motor (6) is cut off. The cylindrical element (15) is designed as a separate cylindrical element arranged on the spindle (10) or a shaft in the transmission (12). The separate cylindrical element (15) is preferably arranged on a rear end of the spindle (10) between the rear mounting (4) and the bearing (11) for the spindle (10). Compared to the known constructions, where the spring is positioned on a cylindrical element on the side of a worm wheel, the heat generation is limited, just as the heat is led out to the rear mounting.
