Actuator with Bowden Cable
This document describes an actuator that utilizes a Bowden cable for actuation.
The actuator consists of:
- A motor
- A transmission mechanism
- A Bowden cable
- An end effector
The motor drives the transmission mechanism, which in turn pulls or pushes on the Bowden cable. The Bowden cable transmits this force to the end effector, causing it to move.
