Abstract
In an aspect, an actuator is provided and includes an axial flux motor and an epicycloid gear arrangement. The axial flux motor has a motor stator and a rotor, the rotor defining a rotor axis and having a motor output shaft. The motor output shaft has a first shaft portion that is coaxial with the rotor axis and a second shaft portion that is offset from the rotor axis. The epicycloid gear arrangement includes a ring gear, a cycloid gear, and a gear arrangement output member. The cycloid gear is rotatably mounted to the second shaft portion of the motor output shaft such that rotation of the motor output shaft drives the cycloid gear about the ring gear. The gear arrangement output member is driven rotationally by the cycloid gear about a gear arrangement output member axis that is fixed.
