Actuator

An actuator assembly, comprising:

• a pivot bracket configured for mounting to a surface;
• an actuator base configured to be pivotally engaged with the pivot bracket;
• an actuator cover configured to couple to the actuator base;
• and
• an end cap configured to couple the actuator base to the pivot bracket via a friction fit.

A sash bracket for an actuator, the sash bracket comprising:

• a clip configured for attachment to a chain of an actuator;
• a body configured for attachment to a window sash;
• a first pin configured to releasably couple the clip to the body;
• a second pin configured to releasably couple the clip to the body;
• two tabs, each tab being coupled to one of the first pin and the second pin;
• and
• a biasing member configured to bias the first pin and the second pin away from each other into respective coupling positions in which the first pin and the second pin couple the clip to the body;
• wherein the two tabs can be squeezed together, against the bias of the biasing member, to move the first pin and the second pin towards each other into respective release positions in which the first pin and the second pin do not couple the clip to the body;
• wherein the first pin and the second pin define a pivot axis and the clip is configured to pivot about the pivot axis.

An actuator assembly, comprising:

• a pivot bracket configured for mounting to a surface;
• an actuator base configured to be pivotally engaged with the pivot bracket, the actuator base having a threaded protrusion;
• an actuator cover configured to couple to the actuator base, the actuator cover having a threaded protrusion;
• and
• a fastener having a threaded hole, the fastener being configured to screw onto the threaded protrusions to couple the actuator base to the pivot bracket.
