- the inventors of the present invention also formed a uniaxial linear solenoid, incorporated the linear solenoid into an electric linear actuator, and tested the durability, etc., and found the following problems. is there.
- the plunger since the plunger forms a magnetic circuit, it is often formed of low carbon steel, which is a ferromagnetic material.
- This low-carbon steel is weak in strength, and when the lock pin is formed with the low-carbon steel, the strength is insufficient, and when locking the gear that engages the locking part, the load is applied from the gear to the lock pin. There is a problem that the lock pin is damaged by the applied moment load.
- the plunger is inserted inside the bobbin holding the coil, and a radial clearance is provided between the inner diameter surface of the bobbin and the outer diameter surface of the plunger. This clearance is preferably small when the magnetic efficiency is taken into consideration.
- the lock pin In the case of a plunger with an integrated lock pin, the lock pin must be slid and guided, and there is a small guide clearance in the guide, so the lock pin is loaded with moment load from the gear within the guide clearance. , The amount of movement in the radial direction at the tail portion of the plunger is increased, and it comes into strong contact with the inner surface of the bobbin. At this time, since the bobbin is formed of a non-magnetic material such as resin or copper and has low strength, the bobbin is worn or damaged due to contact with the plunger, and the plunger is caught to deteriorate the sliding characteristics.
- the meshing portion of the gear is lubricated by grease, and if the grease enters the clearance formed between the opposing surfaces of the plunger and the bobbin from the guide portion of the lock pin, the sliding performance of the plunger is reduced. Will be reduced. In particular, at a low temperature, the viscosity of the grease is high, so that the plunger cannot be moved smoothly.
- An object of the present invention is to increase the reliability of the locking operation in which the lock pin is engaged with the engaging portion of the gear, and to improve the durability.

- An electric type comprising a lock pin that is provided so as to be able to advance and retreat with respect to the engaging portion and engages with the engaging portion during forward movement to lock the gear, and a linear solenoid that advances and retracts the lock pin.
- the plunger and the lock pin in the linear solenoid are arranged as separate parts and are arranged coaxially with the end surfaces facing each other in the axial direction.
- the lock pin is formed of a nonmagnetic material, and the elastic force of the return spring is applied to the lock pin. And a configuration in which the plunger is moved backward together with the lock pin is employed.
- the brake pad is linearly driven by the electric linear actuator, and the disc rotor is pressed by the brake pad to apply a braking force to the disc rotor.
- the electric linear actuator is composed of the electric linear actuator described above according to the present invention, and the brake pad is connected to the slide member of the electric linear actuator.
- the electric brake device having the above configuration, when the electric motor of the electric linear actuator is driven, the rotation of the rotor shaft of the electric motor is reduced by the gear reduction mechanism and output from the output gear, and the rotation of the output gear Is converted into a linear motion by a rotation / linear motion conversion mechanism and transmitted to the slide member. For this reason, the slide member moves forward, the brake pad coupled to the slide member is pressed against the disc rotor, and the disc rotor is braked.
- the brake pad When parking, as described above, the brake pad is pressed against the disk rotor, and when the braking force required for parking is applied to the disk rotor, the coil of the linear solenoid is energized, and the magnetic force is generated between the coil and the plunger. A circuit is formed, the plunger is slid toward the lock pin, the lock pin is pushed forward by the plunger, and the gear is locked by engagement of the lock pin with the locking portion of the gear. In the locked state of the gear, the energization to the electric motor is cut off to suppress wasteful consumption of electric energy.
- the lock pin is formed of a nonmagnetic material during the locking operation in which the lock pin is advanced toward the engaging portion by pressing the plunger, the magnetism of the magnetic circuit formed by the plunger and the coil is applied to the lock pin. There is no inconvenience that the magnetic attraction force against the plunger decreases due to leakage. For this reason, it can be made to move forward reliably to the engaging position which engages a locking pin with a latching
- stainless steel is used as a non-magnetic material, and the stainless steel lock pin is subjected to a surface treatment by nitriding or soft nitriding to improve wear resistance and improve durability. It is preferable to try.

- the lock pin is formed of a nonmagnetic material, the magnetism of the magnetic circuit formed by the plunger and the coil leaks to the lock pin, and the magnetic attraction force against the plunger decreases. There is no such inconvenience, and it is possible to reliably advance the lock pin to the engagement position where the lock pin is engaged with the engaging portion by energizing the coil, and a highly reliable lock operation can be obtained.
- the plunger and the lock pin are separate parts and arranged opposite to each other on the same axis facing each other, when a large moment load is applied from the gear to the lock pin when the lock pin is engaged with the locking portion, Since the moment load is supported by the inner diameter surface of the guide portion that slidably supports the lock pin and is not actuated by the plunger, the plunger may be inclined and damage the inner diameter surface of the coil. Therefore, the durability can be improved.

- 24 is shown, and a spiral groove 25 or a circumferential groove is formed on the outer diameter surface of the planetary roller 24 and meshes with the spiral protrusion 5 provided on the inner diameter surface of the outer ring member 4.
- the conversion mechanism is not limited to this.
- a plurality of planetary rollers are provided between the outer diameter surface of the rotation shaft and the inner diameter surface of the housing by providing a spiral protrusion on the outer diameter surface of the rotation shaft.
- a plurality of circumferential grooves are formed at the same pitch as the spiral ridges on the outer diameter surface, and the rotation of the rotating shaft causes the planetary rollers to revolve while rotating by the engagement between the spiral ridges and the circumferential grooves.
- the planetary roller may be moved in the axial direction.
