Abstract
A setting device for the control surface of a projectile, which includes a drivable spindle or actuated screw which is screwed through the intermediary of a nut which is secured against rotation. Included are end stops for limiting the axial extent of displacement of the nut when stop surfaces which rotate in conjunction with the spindle contact in the direction of rotational movement, a stop against a stop surface axially-parallel protruding from a single-threaded helicoid surface on one or the other end face of the nut.
