Abstract
An adjustable electric actuator system includes an actuator output, a compliance element coupled to the actuator output, and an end fitting element encapsulating at least a portion of the compliance element, wherein the compliance element is guided a first distance in a first axial direction by the actuator output, the first distance being limited by a first limitation element.
Claims20
An adjustable electric actuator system, comprising:
- an actuator output;
- a compliance element coupled to said actuator output;
- and
- an end fitting element encapsulating at least a portion of said compliance element, wherein said compliance element is guided a first distance in a first axial direction by said actuator output, said first distance being limited by a first limitation element.
1 more element
An adjustable electric actuator system, comprising:
- an actuator output;
- a compliance element coupled to said actuator output;
- and
- an end fitting element encapsulating at least a portion of said compliance element, wherein said compliance element is guided a first distance in a first axial direction by said actuator output, said first distance being limited by a first limitation-retraction element.
1 more element
A method of adjusting an electric actuator, comprising:
- guiding a compliance element encapsulated by an end fitting element a first distance in a first axial direction using an actuator output;
- and
- limiting said first distance using a first limitation-retraction element positioned axially between said compliance element and said end fitting element.
