Abstract

The present invention provides a motor having a braking function and used in a linear actuator. The motor includes a main body, a rotation shaft, a braking means and a stopping means. The rotation shaft penetrates the center of the main body. The braking means includes a braking ring and a helical ring. The braking ring includes a plurality of curved plates. The helical ring surrounds outer edges of the curved plates. Each curved plate is put on the outer periphery of the rotation shaft. The stopping means is disposed between the main body and the braking means for restricting the rotation of any of the curved plates. By this arrangement, a better braking and decelerating function can be achieved.

Claims (7)

1. A motor having a braking function and used in a linear actuator, including:

a main body;

a rotation shaft penetrating the center of the main body;

a braking means comprising a braking ring and a helical ring, the braking ring being constituted of a plurality of curved plates, the helical ring surrounding an outer edge of each curved plate, each curved plate being put on an outer periphery of the rotation shaft; and

a stopping means disposed between the main body and the braking means for restricting the rotation of any of the curved plates,

wherein the main body comprises a shroud having a stopping plate, a slot is formed between any two adjacent curved plates, and the stopping means includes the slot and the stopping plate inserted into the slot.

2. The motor having a braking function and used in a linear actuator according to claim 1 , wherein the braking ring is formed into a stepped circular shape, and the helical spring is a circular ring for elastically pressing the braking ring.
