Abstract

A servo control device comprises a motor and continuously acting friction device, which is coupled to the output shaft of the motor and arranged in a housing having an aperture through which the motor output shaft extends. The housing is mounted so as to float radially in a mounting which is provided for it in a casing. Resilient tongues are provided so as to act between the housing and the mounting. The invention is particularly applicable to the motorized servo control of a clutch.
