An assembling mechanism of a self-locking linear actuator includes a gearbox, a one-piece rear retainer seat and a casing. The gearbox is composed of two half pieces, which are mated with each other for accommodating and locating a transmission mechanism of the actuator. The rear retainer seat is fixedly held in the gearbox for supporting a bearing of a threaded rod of the transmission mechanism and bearing the stress from the threaded rod. The contact faces of the rear retainer seat and the gearbox are regular polygonal to facilitate adjustment of fixing angle of the rear retainer seat. The casing is composed of two half casings, which are mated with each other to accommodate the transmission mechanism, the gearbox and the rear retainer seat. The mating faces of the half casings are parallel to the axis of the output shaft of a motor to facilitate connection operation of the casing.

Assembling mechanism of a self-locking linear actuator

A linear actuator is provided with an outer tube, an intermediate tube and an inner tube, and the tubes are all polygonal in cross section and are mounted orderly. The outer tube is disposed at the bottom thereof with a push device which has a screw and a nut that are screwed with each other. The nut is engaged in the intermediate tube and is linked to move axially by the screw. The intermediate tube can be movably equipped with a pulling member, and the pulling member can link the inner tube to synchronously move in the axial direction. By such arrangements, the linear actuator allows the respective tubes to extend and retract axially relative to one another while preventing them from moving relative to one another in radial direction, thus achieving the stable and smooth axial movement.

Linear actuator

An extendible and retractable actuator comprises a motor, two screws and an extendible and retractable sleeve assembly. The motor cooperates with the screws to drive the extendible and retractable sleeve assembly to extend and retract simultaneously, so as to reduce the extending and retracting time and to simplify the structure of the extendible and retractable actuator.

Extendible and retractable actuator

The present invention relates to a new guide actuator with high radial direction load capability, which has the purpose of providing a directional force bearing way to common loading method to make the actuator can bear load and transmit with higher accuracy. On design, the present invention has grooves bearing load at the center of the bottom of the U-shape guide structure, and a table is set between two inner side walls of the U-shape guide structure, grooves corresponding to the grooves of the U-shape guide structure being set at the bottom of the table, rollers being set between grooves and grooves to make the table and the U-shape guide structure slide respect to each other with very low friction due to rolling motion of the rollers with high radial load capability.
