The rotoris connected to one of the screwor the nutfor rotating the screwor the nut. The screw actuator being at least partly mounted within the sleeveand being arranged to bear against a portion of the sleeve assembly to transmit axial thrust to the sleeve assembly, and the sleeve assembly cooperating with an abutment to transmit the axial thrust to the abutment.
