US Patent 9765867 Electromechanical actuator

An electromechanical actuator includes a first electric motor, a first motion conversion mechanism, a second motion conversion mechanism, and a rotation restriction mechanism for the second motion conversion mechanism. The first motion conversion mechanism includes a first member that is rotated by an output of the first electric motor and a second member that is fastened to the first member. The second motion conversion mechanism includes a third member that is movable integrally with the first member and a fourth member that is fastened to the third member. The rotation restriction mechanism is configured to be capable of selectively restricting and allowing rotation of the fourth member in accordance with movement of the third member.
