Abstract
An actuator provided with a motor for moving an output arrangement, the actuator including both an output lever and a fusible connection that acts up to a mechanical torque threshold to constrain the output arrangement and the output lever to move together in rotation about an axis of rotation. The actuator also includes a fluid damper device housed between the output lever and the output arrangement to act, following rupture of the fusible connection, to damp movement of the output lever relative to the output arrangement in rotation about the axis of rotation.
