Abstract
A linear actuator with a quick-release mechanism allows the unpowered, loaded linear actuator to immediately return to its initial position by operating a rotatable involute cam of the quick-release mechanism. The quick-release mechanism is connected with a remote monitoring system so the current position of the linear actuator can be detected from a distant place.
