Abstract

Apparatus for providing a linear movement to an actuating member while preventing axial loadings from being transmitted from the actuating member to an engaging member, such as a screw. A pressure pad or springs are interposed between an actuating member and an engaging member such that axial loadings are prevented from being transmitted from the actuating member to the engaging member due to the resilient effect of the springs or pressure pad.
