Abstract

A chain-drive actuator (10) that is useful particularly but not exclusively for closing and opening horizontally-hinged doors and windows, and comprises, within a box-like containment body (11), motor means (13) connected to a reduction unit (14) that is in turn coupled in output to an actuation unit (15) that comprises a chain (16) with an outer end preset to pass through a corresponding opening formed in the box-like body. The actuator comprises guiding means (19) for the chain (16) that comprise at least one guiding slot (21), which is formed at the bottom of the box-like body and in which an inner end (23) of the at least one chain is slidingly guided so as to form a movable stroke limiter during traction and retraction.
