摘要

An electric motor driven actuator comprises an electric motor whose rotation causes rotation of a planet carrier carrying planet gears which engage an annulus gear on the inside of a stationary ring. A pinion transmits rotation of the planet carrier to further planet gears which are carried on another planet carrier and engage another annulus inside an axially movable ring. This ring can be moved axially by an armature in dependence on energization of an electro magnetic coil within a housing. When the ring moves towards the first-mentioned, stationary, ring, face teeth which it carries engage face teeth on the latter ring, and the axially movable ring is thus held stationary. Its planet carrier thus rotates and a coupling rotates a shaft which, via a tape, transmits drive to an output cable. When the coil is de-energized rings, separate again and the axially movable ring is no longer held stationary and its planet carrier no longer rotates.
