Electromechanical actuator, covering device and closure, covering or solar protection installation comprising such an electromechanical actuator or such a covering device

An electromechanical actuator for driving a winding tube of a closure, occultation or solar protection system, the electromechanical actuator comprising at least:

• a casing,
• a torque support, the torque support being arranged at a first end of the casing, the torque support comprising:
• a first part arranged inside the casing;
• and
• a second part extending outside the casing
• an electrical power supply lead, the power supply lead being configured to be connected to an electrical energy supply network,
• an electric motor, the electric motor being mounted within the casing, the electric motor being supplied with electrical power via the electrical power supply lead,
• an electronic control unit comprising at least one electronic board,
• a cover, the cover being mounted on a head of the torque support, comprising a base and a lateral face, the head of the torque support being part of the second part of the torque support,
• wherein the electronic board is arranged inside a housing of the torque support, the cover closing the housing of the torque support,
• wherein the torque support comprises a mounting plate, the mounting plate being attached to one end of the head of the torque support by being mounted in a cutout of the lateral face of the cover, and
• wherein the mounting plate is provided with an opening configured to collaborate with a projecting part of a fixed support of a holding device to take up forces exerted by the electromechanical actuator.
