Abstract

An electromechanical actuator for electrical flight controls of an aircraft, the actuator comprising a transmission shaft, four electromechanical conversion members, each having a respective stator and rotor secured to the transmission shaft, and four control systems, each dedicated to respective ones of the electromechanical conversion members. The stator has teeth and windings surrounding at least one tooth, whereas the rotor is provided with permanent magnets. Each electromechanical conversion member is a flux-concentrating member and each winding is concentric and has a single layer. The electromechanical actuator is intended in particularly for controlling a hydraulic actuator via a mechanical transmission within an electrical flight control device of an aircraft.
