The present invention is directed toward providing a new embodiment of prior art Dual Position Latching Solenoid (DPLS), that allows for a moving coil section or moving permanent magnet section, with increased magnetic attraction force and increased travel distance. In this new DPLS embodiment, the control coil and the permanent magnet are separated, which allows magnetic attraction for latching and repulsion for unlatching. Further, this allows the DPLS to be used as Dual Poled Linear Motor (DPLM) that is less dependent on the control coil size as in some prior art linear motors, by using the linear magnetic attraction and repulsion for increase magnetic force, and by using multiple parallel coils to reduce the control coil's resistance. Like prior art DPLS, the permanent magnet section is composed of a toroidal permanent magnet within an inner and outer magnetic core, to produce dual magnetic poles. The coil section(s) is much identical to the permanent magnet section with the toroidal permanent magnet replaced with the control coil. In the preferred embodiment, the outward pole side of the coil section has the attractor used in prior art DPLS embodiments attached to the outward pole sides of the inner and outer magnetic core to encapsulate (on three sides) the control coil and the magnetic flux from the permanent magnet section and the magnetic flux created by the control coil when activated (carrying a current). Then by placing a coil section on one or both sides of the permanent magnet section, the section(s) can be placed in magnetic attraction or repulsion, when the control coil is activated.
