  • Patent number: 10692636
    Abstract: An electromagnetic actuator device has at least one stationary spool unit (4), which can be energized, and at least one armature unit (7), movable along a displacement axis (V) and with respect to the spool unit (4) in reaction to the spool unit (4) being energized. The armature unit (7) can be displaced between a parked position and an actuating position in an output drive direction along the displacement axis (V) in order to interact with an actuating element, which can be a camshaft disposed on the output side of the armature unit (7), and can be rotated about the displacement axis (V).

  • Publication number: 20170256348
    Abstract: A bistable electromagnetic actuator device, a permanent magnet means (12; 12a, 12b), as well as an armature unit (18) with an elongate plunger unit (10) extending along a moving direction, wherein said armature unit can be moved into at least one of two end and/or stop positions that are stable in the deenergized state by means of stationary electromagnetic driving means (22), wherein stationary magnetic field detector means (34; 34a, 34b) are assigned to a housing (20), which at least sectionally encloses the armature unit, for the contactless interaction with the permanent magnet means in at least one of the end or stop positions provided for the armature position detection, wherein the plunger unit features a terminal contact and/or engagement section (28) for interacting with an actuating partner in a contacting and non-positive fashion such that a non-positive contact and/or actuation by the actuating partner causes a motion of the armature unit into one of the end or stop positions, in which the armatur

  • Patent number: 8939431
    Abstract: An electromagnetic positioning device has a long stretched out anchor plunger section as well as an anchor having an anchor body section axially continuing the latter, which in order to magnetically interact with a core unit and by energizing a stationary provided coil device is movably designed relative to the latter. The core unit is designed in such a way that it at least sectionally encompasses the anchor plunger section as well as the anchor body section with an expanded diameter relative to the anchor plunger section. The core unit is a multi-part design in the axial direction with a stationary core section, an axially movable core section and a variable core gap between the stationary and movable core section, and the movable core section and anchor are designed and joined together via a driver in such a way that, in response to energization, the movable core section moves, causing the core gap to close, and the driver drives the anchor in the axial direction.

  • Publication number: 20090183698
    Abstract: The invention relates to an electromagnetically actuated valve device with closure means (36) that can be actuated by an armature unit (32, 34) interacting with stationary coil means (22) which closure means are embodied for the controlled opening and/or closing of a flow region (18) formed between an inflow (12) and an outflow (14) in a valve housing (10, 16, 20), wherein the axially moveable armature unit (32, 34) embodied lengthwise comprises a passage which brings about pressure equalization so that in the valve housing on an axial end of the armature unit opposite to the inflow a pressure chamber (44) which is opened to the inflow via the passage is formed.
