    4.0 Structure and function CAHB-10 series This actuator is to be used exclusively for installation into a dy- namic centric-compression or tensile-loaded lift. The linear actuator consists of a motor part (3) and a linear unit  (5), connected with each other by a bayonet joint. The actuator consists of a direct current motor with spur gear  which sets in motion a trapezoidal sliding spindle system with  shaft joint. Via the lead screw mount, the sliding spindle trans- forms the rotation of the gear into a linear motion of the  actuator (1). The front hinge head (4) and the rear hinge head (7) transmit the  actuator power to both sides of the application. 4.3 Construction group description Motor The motor is a 12 or 24 V DC. The motor’s shaft powers a spur  gear. The lift speed depends on the load. The motor unit is sur- rounded by metal housing. The metal housing cannot be  opened. Gear unit The spur gear is directly powered by the motor shaft which  moves a trapezoidal sliding spindle. Linear unit The actuator extends and retracts the push tube. The linear unit  is surrounded and protected by the guiding tube. The push tube  of the actuator is connected to the spindle with a lead screw  nut. The linear unit is connected to the motor with several screws. These screws should not be loosened or removed. 4.4 Connections Figure 4 1.
