Patent attributes
An actuator having a manual rotating mechanism and an anti-pinch mechanism includes an actuating body, a manual rotating mechanism, and an anti-pinch mechanism. The actuating body has a stretchable tube. The manual rotating mechanism has a sleeve assembly and a manual rotating wheel. The sleeve assembly has a central shaft and a connecting plate. The anti-pinch mechanism has a clutch wheel which is fixed to the stretchable tube and is movably sleeved around the central shaft. When the stretchable tube is blocked during a retraction stroke, the clutch wheel is detached from the connecting plate such that the clutch wheel follows the stretchable tube to idle. Therefore, the stretchable tube can be manually rotated to retract and the anti-pinch effect during the stretchable tube being retracted can be achieved.
