LINEAR ACTUATOR
First Claim
1. A linear actuator comprising:
- an electric motor (2),a gear housing (18),a transmission comprising a planetary gear (4) with a sun wheel (17), a planetary wheel holder (13) with planetary wheels (14) in mesh with the sun wheel (17) and a tooth rim (15) in the gear housing (18), where the planetary wheels (14) are in mesh with the toothed rim (15);
a spindle (5) in connection with the transmission,a spindle nut (6) on the spindle,a bearing (20) for embedding a shaft end of the spindle (5), wherein the shaft end of the spindle (5) is lead freely through the transmission and connected to the bearing (20), and where the connection between the shaft end of the spindle (5) and the transmission allows a mutual axial movement so that axial forces are only lead through the spindle bypassing the transmission and directly to the bearing (20).

Abstract
A linear actuator comprising a spindle (5) with a spindle nut (6), where the spindle (5) is driven by an electric motor (2) via a transmission (3,4), comprising a planetary gear (4). The construction is constructed in such a way that the spindle (5) is lead through the transmission (3,4) and is embedded by means of a ball bearing (20) in connection with a rear mounting (10), causing the axial forces to be lead through the transmission (3,4) via the spindle (5) and the ball bearing (20) to the rear mounting (10). This means that the construction is simpler and less voluminous and that the axial forces, moreover, are not transferred to the transmission.
