Abstract

An electric linear actuator has a housing, an electric motor mounted on the housing, a speed reduction mechanism, and a ball screw mechanism. The ball screw mechanism has a nut and screw shaft. Both have helical screw grooves. The screw shaft is inserted into the nut, via a large number of balls. A sleeve is secured on the housing to prevent rotation of the screw shaft relative to the housing. At least one axially extending recessed groove is formed on the inner circumference of the sleeve. At least one guide pin, mounted on the end of the screw shaft, engages the recessed groove. A tapering chamfered portion is formed on the end of the nut.
