A cable cylinder (100) comprising a frame (1);-a pin (2) mounted on the frame and extending along a first axis (Oy);-a nut (4) engaging with the pin (2);-a first cable (10) coupled to the nut or the pin (2) and intended to be functionally connected to an element to be moved;-a motor (3) designed to rotate the pin (2) or the nut (4); characterised in that the first cable (6) comprises at least a first section (6.1) extending substantially parallel to the first axis (Ox), and the first cable (6) is designed to exert opposing forces on rotation of the nut (4) by the pin (2) or of the pin (2) by the nut (4) in order to constitute anti-rotation means so that a rotation of the pin (2) or of the bolt (4) under the action of the motor (3) causes a relative movement of the nut (4) and of the pin (2).
