US 2024/0391576 A1 · LINEAR ACTUATOR

Abstract

A linear actuator has a mounting bracket with a mounting flange configured to be coupled to a first component and a clevis comprising a pair of forks. A housing has a first end configured to be pivotably coupled to the clevis forks. A rod extends from a second end of the housing and is configured to be coupled to a second component. A cable extends from the first end of the housing and is routed between the clevis forks and through an opening in the mounting flange. A hood on the mounting bracket extends from the mounting flange at least partially along the clevis forks so as to cover at least part of the cable. A shroud extends past the first end of the housing and also covers at least part of the cable.
