The Eccentuator: A new concept in actuation

Abstract

A new concept in actuation for aerospace mechanisms is presented. This actuator, called an 'eccentuator', features unique output characteristics, installation and envelope efficiencies, and relative simplicity. The actuator can be powered by either hydraulic or mechanical inputs. Potential applications of the 'eccentuator' and development efforts are discussed.
