    摘要: An electro-mechanical actuator for generating an axial actuation force is provided. The electro-mechanical actuator includes an electric machine having a stator (1) and a rotor (2). The electro-mechanical actuator also includes a spindle drive with a rotary element (6) and with an element that is movable in a translatory manner. A rotation of the rotary element (6) may result in a translatory motion of the element that is movable in a translatory manner. The rotor (2) and the rotary element (6) of the spindle drive are coupled to each other in a circumferential direction (U) such that a rotation of the rotor (2) results in a rotation of the rotary element (6) of the spindle drive (5). A rotational play (8) is formed between the rotor (2) and the rotary element (6) of the spindle drive in the circumferential direction (U).

    摘要: A linear actuator assembling method includes a semi-finished product assembling step and a threaded shaft assembling step. The semi-finished product assembling step is to form a semi-finished product, and the semi-finished product includes a case, a main gear, and a main gear bearing. The main gear and the main gear bearing are surrounded and restricted by the case, and the main gear bearing is sleeved on the main gear. In the threaded shaft assembling step, a threaded shaft is reversely assembled, and one end of the threaded shaft is inserted into the main gear to allow the end of the threaded shaft to be restricted by the main gear.

    摘要: An adjustment mechanism for a seat comprises at least one screw shaft (111, 112) and a motor for driving the at least one screw shaft (111, 112). Further, the adjustment mechanism comprises at least one nut element (121, 122) engaged with the at least one screw shaft (121, 122) in such a way that a rotation of the at least one screw shaft (111, 112) caused by the motor translates into a linear motion of the at least one nut element (121, 122). In a first range of the linear motion of the at least one nut element (121, 122) the linear motion translates into adjustment of the seat according to a first degree of freedom, and in a second range of the linear motion of the at least one nut element (121, 122) the linear motion translates into adjustment of the seat according to a second degree of freedom.

    摘要: A linear electric actuator system, preferably for patient lifters, comprising at least one linear electric actuator and a controller having a power limiting circuit for limiting the power to the at least one linear electric actuator. The actuator system is arranged such that the threshold value of the maximum permissible power in the power limiting circuit may be changed, and that this change may be performed via reference to the position of the spindle nut on the spindle as a look up in a table showing a corresponding value for the power limit.

    摘要: In a screw device where a shim is disposed between two nuts, a screw device that can detect preload is provided. The preload detectable screw device includes: two nuts; a shim sandwiched and compressed between the two nuts; a coupling portion configured to couple the two nuts in such a manner as to be incapable of relative rotation to each other; and a force sensor for detecting preload. A contact surface of at least one of the two nuts with the shim is provided with a recess, spaced apart from the coupling portion, in such a manner as to reduce the contact area. The force sensor is attached near the recess on an outer surface of the shim.
