An electric actuator is capable of easily achieving reduction in weight and size when compared to a hydraulic cylinder device, capable of being used in place of the hydraulic cylinder device, and capable of freely extending in response to a suddenly-applied impact load. An electric actuator converts rotation of an electric motor into advancing/retracting motion of an output rod using a screw shaft and a nut member mounted to the screw shaft. The output rod includes: a drive cylinder, to which the nut member is provided, the drive cylinder being arranged around the screw shaft; and a movable cylinder arranged to overlap the drive cylinder around the screw shaft and freely advancing and retreating with respect to the drive cylinder. The electric actuator further includes a releasing mechanism provided between the drive cylinder and the movable cylinder, for engaging the movable cylinder with the drive cylinder. 1. An electric actuator , comprising:{'b': 13', '130, 'a housing (, ) fixed to a first structure;'}{'b': 9', '90', '9', '90, 'an output rod (, ) comprising a hollow portion, the output rod (, ) being fixed to a second structure and retained so as to freely protrude from and retract into the housing;'}{'b': 16', '160, 'a screw shaft (, ), which is held by the housing so as to be rotatable, inserted into the hollow portion of the output rod, and is rotated by an electric motor as appropriate; and'}{'b': 20', '200, 'a nut member (, ), which is provided to the output rod, mounted to the screw shaft, and is moved in an axial direction in accordance with rotation of the screw shaft,'}{'b': 9', '90, 'claim-text': [{'b': 21', '120, 'a drive cylinder (, ) to which the nut member is provided; and'}, {'b': 12', '210, 'a movable cylinder (, ) to which the second structure is fixed, the movable cylinder being arranged to overlap the drive cylinder and freely advancing and retreating with respect to the drive cylinder,'}], 'the output rod (, ) comprising{'b': 30', '300, 'the ...
