The utility model discloses an improved compact type electric cylinder which comprises a
servo motor, a planetary
reducer is installed at the lower end of the
servo motor, a gear box is installed at the lower end of the planetary
reducer, a bearing seat is arranged at the upper end of the gear box and located on one side of the planetary
reducer, and the bearing seat is connected with the planetary reducer. A cylinder
barrel is installed at the upper end of the bearing seat, a front
flange is arranged at the upper end of the cylinder
barrel, a limiting switch is embedded in the outer surface of an anti-rotation block pressing plate, a
ball screw is installed in the cylinder
barrel, the
ball screw is sleeved with a lead screw nut, and an anti-rotation block is installed on the outer side of the lead screw nut. A guide shaft
piston rod is connected to the anti-rotation block in an inserted mode, and an outer
screw joint is installed at the upper end of the guide shaft
piston rod. Through reasonable
layout of the
servo motor, the planetary reducer, the gear box and other parts, the overall occupied space is reduced, and compared with a traditional large-
tonnage electric cylinder, the structure is more compact, and the electric cylinder is suitable for the
working environment with limited space.
