Abstract
An electromechanical actuator comprises a casing, an electric motor, a gearbox, a spring-applied brake (25), and a centring shaft (71). The brake (25) comprises a coil spring (48), a drum (49), an input member (50) and an output member (51). The output member (51) comprises a first bore (73). The shaft (71) is mounted inside the first bore (73) of the output member (51) and a bore of a sun gear (40) of a reduction stage (38) of the gearbox. The drum (49) comprises a shoulder (90). Furthermore, a planet carrier (66) of the reduction stage (38) is configured to bear against the shoulder (90) of the drum (49).
Claims20
An electromechanical actuator of a shading device,
- the electromechanical actuator (11) comprising at least:
- a casing,
- an electric motor,
