Abstract
The invention relates to an actuator (1) comprising: a body (4), a first element (5) mounted such that it can move rotatably in relation to said body (4), and a second element (6) mounted such that it can move translatably in relation to said body (4), either the first element (5) or the second element (6) being a screw and the other one being a nut, the nut cooperating with the screw such that a rotation of the first element (5) in relation to the body (4) around an axis of rotation (X) causes the translation of the second element (6) in relation to the body (4) parallel to the axis of rotation (X), a cylinder which is stationary in relation to the first element (5), a piston mounted such that it can move translatably inside the cylinder between a first end position and a second end position, and a cam surface which is stationary in relation to the body (4) and against which the piston is supported such that a rotation of the first element (5) in relation to the body (4) causes a translatory back-and-forth movement of the piston between the first end position and the second end position.
