Abstract
The disclosure relates to an electromechanical cylinder with a screw drive which converts the introduced motor torque of an electric motor into a linear movement for an actuating part, wherein at least one force acting on the actuating part is detected by means of a sensor device.
Claims13
An electromechanical cylinder with a screw drive which converts an introduced motor torque of an electric motor into a linear movement for an actuating part, wherein
- at least one force acting on the actuating part is detected using a sensor assembly;
- the sensor assembly comprises a first sensor that detects a tensile force and a second sensor that detects a compressive force on the actuating part;
- the sensor assembly is received in a bearing device, which is arranged between a transmission housing and a housing tube and through which a threaded spindle, which is mounted in the bearing device using bearing points in the axial and radial direction, passes;
- the electromechanical cylinder comprises one or more of a first sensor that detects a tensile force and a second sensor that detects a compressive force on the actuating part;
- and wherein
- the first sensor and the second sensor are each received in the bearing device between an axial bearing and a shared radial bearing.
