A linear actuator (1) and the centrifugal safety device (50) thereof is disclosed. The safety device (50) includes an outer socket (51) having a stop portion (512) and a first accommodation portion (513), an inner socket (53) having a raised portion (531) and a second accommodation portion (532) and a centrifugal assembly (55) having a centrifugal block (551) and an elastic element (555). The inner socket (53) drives the centrifugal assembly (55) to rotate. If the centrifugal force of the centrifugal block (551) is smaller than the elasticity of the elastic element (555), then the centrifugal block (551) is limited in the second accommodation portion (532) by the elastic element (555), or else the centrifugal block (551) moves into the first accommodation portion (513) and clamped by the raised portion (531) and the stop portion (512).

Disclosed is a linear actuator, including a housing, a drive worm, a rotating screw and a drive nut. The drive worm drives the rotating screw to rotate. The rotating screw rotates to drive the drive nut to move axially along the rotating screw. A clutch means is arranged between the drive worm and the rotating screw. The clutch means includes a coupling gear sleeve axially movable relative to the rotating screw. The rotating screw is sleeved with an axial limiting sleeve. The axial limiting sleeve and the housing are abutted axially. The axial limiting sleeve and the rotating screw maintain alignment in an axial direction. When the rotating screw is subjected to an axial load, the rotating screw transmits axial force to the housing through the axial limiting sleeve, and the axial force is not transmitted between the coupling gear sleeve and the axial limiting sleeve in the axial direction.

The second fixing piece includes a fixing flange and an accommodation groove. The first end is fixed to a bottom end of the accommodation groove through the first fixing piece. A nut of the lift assembly is fixedly disposed at a second end of the bushing. A lead screw of the lift assembly is rotatably disposed in the bushing and threaded into the nut. The second fixing piece is fixedly disposed at the fixing base through the fixing flange. The drive assembly includes a fixing frame. An end of the lead screw is rotatably connected to the fixing frame, and the drive assembly is capable of driving the lead screw to rotate.

Linear drive with a gear housing extending along a longitudinal axis, in which a spindle is rotatably mounted with a worm wheel connected to it in a rotationally fixed manner, a spindle nut running on the spindle, which is adjustable on the spindle between a retracted position and an extended position and which acts on a lifting tube. The spindle nut is arranged in the retracted position guide tube and retracted in the region of a rear end of the guide tube, and thus the lifting tube is also retracted into the guide tube. The spindle nut is arranged at a front end of the guide tube in the extended position. An electric motor drives the screw, which extends along a transverse axis extending transversely to the longitudinal axis, wherein the electric motor is accommodated in a motor housing which is connected to the gear housing. Furthermore, a control system is arranged in a control housing. In order to simplify the assembly of the control housing, a connection is formed between the control housing and the drive housing, which is designed in such a way that the latter is simultaneously electrically connected to the drive housing during the mechanical attachment.

An adjustment drive for a motor-adjustable steering column for a motor vehicle includes a drive unit having a transmission in which there is mounted a drive wheel. The drive wheel can be driven to rotate about a drive axis and is in operative engagement with a transmission wheel which is mounted in the transmission so as to be rotatable about a transmission axis. The transmission has a drive module, which includes the drive wheel, and a transmission module, which includes the transmission wheel. The drive module and the transmission are connected to one another by a joining connection.

Disclosed is a linear actuator, including a drive motor, a transmission assembly, a rotary screw, a transmission nut, a clutch device, a self-locking device and a hand-pull release assembly. The clutch device is arranged between the transmission assembly and the rotary screw. The self-locking device is configured to generate frictional resistance to the rotary screw when the rotary screw rotates reversely, and the self-locking device includes a release torsion spring. The hand-pull release assembly includes a first driving member connected with the clutch device and a second driving member connected with the self-locking device, and has an initial state and a fully released state. During the process from the initial state to the fully released state, the first driving member drives the clutch device to disconnect power, and the second driving member drives the release torsion spring to extend.

An actuator assembly is provided for converting rotation into linear displacement including a linear fluid dispensing tube for linear displacement. Hemispherical lugs are monolithically formed on the linear member. A primary gear includes a central bore having helix grooves formed into a surface of the central bore. The helix grooves receive the hemispherical lugs so that each helix groove mates with a respective hemispherical lug to reduce friction, so that hemispherical lugs slide smoothly within the respective helix grooves. Linear projections are formed on the exterior surface of the dispensing tube and extend longitudinally along the dispensing tube. A projecting portion has an aperture for receiving and guiding the dispensing tube through the linear displacement. Mating grooves are formed on an interior of the projecting portion for receiving and guiding the linear projections, thereby preventing the dispensing tube from rotating during travel.

A fine pitch adjuster that includes a housing, a wheel gear positioned within the housing and coupled to a ball stud, wherein rotation of the wheel gear provides inward and outward longitudinal translation of the ball stud relative to the housing, and a clutching worm input drive including, an inner drive sleeve having a shaft portion and a head portion, the shaft portion including a plurality of sleeve slots formed therein and a plurality of engagement ribs, and an outer worm gear sleeve having worm gear threads, the worm gear threads coupled at least indirectly to the wheel gear, and an inner chamber, the outer worm gear sleeve including a plurality of grooves extending longitudinally along the inner chamber for mating engagement with the plurality of engagement ribs, wherein rotation of the inner drive sleeve provides clutchable engagement with the outer worm gear sleeve to rotate the wheel gear.

An actuator and a transmission structure thereof. The transmission structure (3) includes a screw nut (31) and a ratchet guiding sleeve (32). The screw nut (31) includes one or a plurality of pawls (311). The ratchet guiding sleeve (32) is mounted on the screw nut (31), and the screw nut (31) is able to rotate relative to the ratchet guiding sleeve (32).
