Patent attributes
An strut assembly extends along a strut axis and comprises a strut body, an actuator, and a locking assembly. The strut body includes a rod and a sleeve. The rod is translatable relative to the sleeve along the strut axis. The actuator is linearly engaged with the sleeve such that linear movement of the actuator causes linear movement of the sleeve. The locking assembly includes a lock member configured to transition between a locked position in which the lock member engages both the sleeve and the actuator such that rotation between the sleeve and the actuator is substantially prevented, and an unlocked position in which the lock member is spaced apart from the sleeve such that the actuator is substantially free to rotate about the sleeve.
