Actuator

摘要

An actuator containing a drive mechanism that moves a locking pin forward and backward. Said drive mechanism is provided with the following: a holder that holds the locking pin; a cam member that has a cam gear; and a power-transmitting member in which a lower gear to which power from a motor is transmitted and an upper gear coupled to the cam gear are formed. The cam is offset from the center of rotation of the cam gear. The holder is pushed in a forward/backward direction by reciprocal motion of the cam within a range that constitutes less than a full revolution about the center of rotation of the cam gear. A region into which part of the lower gear fits and a region through which the cam moves are provided in a space above one surface of the cam gear.

1. An actuator comprising:
a hollow housing; and a pin projecting from an outer surface of the housing, a drive mechanism housed in the housing, and the drive mechanism configured to extend and retract the pin, wherein the drive mechanism includes
a holder configured to hold the pin,a cam member including a cam gear provided with a cam,a motor, anda drive transmission member in which a first gear and a second gear are formed coaxial with each other, driving force being transmitted from the motor to the first gear, and the second gear being connected to the cam gear, the cam is projectingly provided to one surface of the cam gear, and is eccentric from a center of turn of the cam gear, the cam reciprocatingly turns around the center of turn of the cam member within a range less than one rotation, and thereby pushes out the holder in a direction of extension and retraction of the pin, and a space on a side of the one surface of the cam gear includes an area which a part of the first gear enters, and a movement area of the cam.
