dispozitiv de acţionare liniară cu ceară
Explanation:
A wax motor is a linear actuator that is sometimes used to replace a magnetic solenoid in an application where a short range of linear motion is required.
The wax motor has three principal components:
A block of wax
A plunger that bears on the wax
An electric heater, typically a PTC thermistor, that heats the wax
When the electric heater is energized, the wax block is heated and it expands, driving the plunger outwards. When the electric current is removed, the wax block cools and contracts and the plunger is withdrawn (usually, by spring force applied externally or by a spring incorporated directly into the wax motor).
linear actuator = dispozitiv de acţionare liniară
