The fastener 400 and the inner sleeve 300 are connected by a circumferential limiting mechanism 500, and the circumferential limiting mechanism 500 includes a convex rib 510 provided on the inner sleeve 300 and a limiting groove 001 provided on the fastener 400. After the outer sleeve 200 is rotated circumferentially so that the convex rib 510 enters the limiting groove 001, the circumferential limiting mechanism 500 is locked.

[0030] When the actuator 100 is extended to the maximum length position, the fastener 400 is tightly connected to the outer sleeve 200, and there is a circumferential limiting mechanism 500 between the inner sleeve 300 and the fastener 400. The outer sleeve 200 rotates circumferentially. At this time, the fastener 400 rotates circumferentially with the outer sleeve 200, and the rib 510 enters the limiting groove 001 to circumferentially lock the inner sleeve 300 and the outer sleeve 200. The inner sleeve 300 and the outer sleeve 200 are against each other, and the actuator 100 no longer extends or retracts; during the extension and retraction process, the fastener 400 and the outer sleeve 200 are only in contact with the inner sleeve 300 through the rubber-coated inner part 600.

[0031] The mechanical limitation of the sliding sleeve is achieved by the circumferential limiting mechanism 500 between the fastener 400 and the inner sleeve 300, and the rubber-coated inner part 600 is provided to achieve soft and hard contact between the workpieces so that the sliding sleeve can be limited while reducing the noise generated during use.

[0032] In this embodiment, the circumferential limiting mechanism 500 further includes a locking strip 520 and a locking tongue 530 provided on the fastener 400 , and a limiting groove 001 is formed between the locking strip 520 and the locking tongue 530 .

The circumferential limiting mechanism 500 opens and closes the circumferential locking of the inner sleeve 300 and the outer sleeve 200 as the position of the rib 510 switches.

[0034] In this embodiment, the locking strip 520 protrudes inward from the inner wall of the fastener 400, and the locking tongue 530 is disposed in the notch of the fastener 400 to form a cantilever structure. The locking tongue 530 can be tilted up and pressed down in the radial direction.

The locking strips 520 and the locking tongues 530 are located on both sides of the rib 510 of the inner sleeve 300, limiting the circumferential position of the outer sleeve 200 and the inner sleeve 300 relative to each other. Correspondingly, at this time, the right end face of the circumferentially evenly distributed guide rib 510 of the inner sleeve 300 and the inward protruding step end face of the outer sleeve 200 are face to face, forming a top contact when pressed, thereby preventing the compression movement of the actuator 100.

[0036] In this embodiment, a step structure is provided inside the outer sheath 200, and the step structure forms a locking end face 210. When the rib 510 of the inner sheath 300 abuts against the locking end face 210, the outer sheath 200 and the outer sheath 200 are against each other, and the circumferential limiting mechanism 500 is locked to form a mechanical lock.

[0040] In the optional scheme of this embodiment, it is more preferred that there are multiple inward U-shaped notches on the notch end of the outer sheath 200, which cooperate with the multiple protrusions on the fastener 400 to circumferentially lock the fastener 400; a locking groove 003 is processed on the U-shaped notch and passes through the multiple notches, which cooperates with the retaining ring 410 on the fastener 400 to lock the axial position of the fastener 400.

[0043] In this embodiment, the rubber-coated inner component 600 is a thermoplastic elastic colloid, and the rubber-coated inner component 600 is injection-molded on the inner wall of the fastener 400 .

[0044] In an alternative embodiment of this embodiment, the inner wall of the fastener 400 is preferably provided with an annular groove for a rubber-coated inner member 600, which is injection-molded with rubber. When the actuator 100 is used in a mobile vehicle, this effectively prevents abnormal driving noise. Furthermore, the left end of the inner sheath 300 has a square hole that fits over the rear end of the actuator 100 to limit rotation between the inner sheath 300 and the actuator 100.

[0045] In this embodiment, the inner sheath 300 is also provided with fine ribs 310, and a plurality of fine ribs 310 are evenly distributed circumferentially on the outer wall of the inner sheath 300.

When the actuator 100 is compressed to the end of the stroke, the inner hole of the fastener 400 and the buffer rubber ring 700 are in contact and form an interference fit, thereby achieving the effect of reducing noise during movement and alleviating movement impact.

[0047] In this embodiment, an actuator 100 and a push-up assembly 800 are included. The push-up assembly 800 is plugged into the end of the outer sheath 200 away from the fastener 400 . The actuator 100 passes through the push-up assembly 800 and enters the inner cavity of the outer sheath 200 .
