Abstract

A linear actuator, a housing for such a linear actuator, an actuation system, and a method for assembling a linear actuator. The linear actuator has an actuating mechanism and a housing. The actuating mechanism includes a spindle and a nut and it is configured to convert rotational motion into translational motion. The housing has two housing parts and the actuating mechanism is at least partially arranged in the housing. The two housing parts form a plurality of separate cavities that are configured to receive separate components of the linear actuator, in particular of the actuating mechanism.
