Abstract

A jam free linear actuator system includes a linear electro-mechanical actuator configured to actuate a component; a disengagement mechanism configured to disengage components of the linear electro-mechanical actuator in an event of a jammed failure; a fixed end fitting mechanical connection; and a trim end fitting mechanical connection. The fixed end fitting mechanical connection connects the linear electro-mechanical actuator to a portion of a system implementing the linear electro-mechanical actuator; and the trim end fitting mechanical connection connects the linear electro-mechanical actuator to the component.
