ABSTRACT:
An electromechanical actuator is disclosed having either a rotary output or a linear output for moving an external load, the actuator having at least two drive motors, a synchronizer connected to the outputs of the drive motors, a differential mechanism combining the outputs of the drive motors, and a quick release mechanism connected to the differential mechanism and the actuator output, the quick release mechanism releasing support of the external actuator load in response to an internal actuator jam and maintaining support or the external actuator load in response to an external actuator overload.
