A linear actuator comprising a housing with a proximal end and a distal end, the housing defining a central cavity extending axially through the housing; a piston tube, where a first portion of the piston tube is slidably positioned axially in the housing, and a second portion of the piston tube extends outwardly from the distal end of the housing; an elongated rotatable screw positioned axially within the central cavity of the housing; a nut positioned within the housing and mounted about the screw, the nut configured to move axially within the housing as the screw rotates; and a spring positioned around the screw, the spring positioned within the housing between the nut and the piston tube; wherein the spring is configured to bias the piston tube away from the nut. |
