A linear actuator useful for adjusting furniture includes a housing (1) with a reversible electric-motor (2) which, via a transmission (11, 13), drives a spindle (4) with a force absorbing bearing (16). On the spindle there is a nut (5) to which an actuation rod (86) is fixed surrounded by an outer tube (7). The actuator is with the actuation rod and a rear mounting mounted in the construction into which the actuator should be built-in. The motor housing is part of the supporting construction, as a console is fixed to this (10) with a fixing for the outer tube, spindle bearing and a rear mounting and is designed to absorb the forces occurring hereon.

A thermal barrier for extremely high temperature applications consists of a carbon fiber core and one or more layers of braided carbon fibers surrounding the core. The thermal barrier is preferably a large diameter ring, having a relatively small cross-section. The thermal barrier is particularly suited for use as part of a joint structure in solid rocket motor casings to protect low temperature elements such as the primary and secondary elastomeric O-ring seals therein from high temperature gases of the rocket motor.
