Abstract:

An electromechanical actuating assembly () can have a redundant design with a first electric motor (A) providing actuator-moving power via a first drive train (A) and a second electric motor (B) providing actuator-moving power via a second drive train (B). A first decoupling train (A) can transmit decoupling power to decouple the first drive train (A) from the actuator () and a second decoupling train (B) for transmit decoupling power to decouple the second drive train (B) from the actuator (). The assembly () is operable in a fault-tolerant mode wherein actuator-moving power is transferred only through one drive train (A/B) and the other drive train (B/A) is decoupled from the actuator ().
