An electromagnetic feedback actuator for an operating element includes an electromagnet, a magnet armature, and a metal body. The electromagnet includes a magnetic coil and a magnetic core. The magnet armature is moveable relative to the electromagnet. The operating element includes an actuating element (e.g., touch surface, sensor surface). The magnet armature is mechanically coupled to the operating element to provide a force pulse to the operating element in response to contact with, or pressure actuation on, an actuating element of the operating element. The electromagnet is arranged in the metal body. The metal body, in integral fashion, forms the magnet armature, a magnet yoke for the magnetic core of the electromagnet, and a holder for the electromagnet. An arrangement includes at least one such electromagnetic feedback actuator coupled to an operating element.

The torque motor comprises first and second opposing pole pieces, first and second permanent magnets positioned between the first and second pole pieces; an armature comprising a magnetic plate and a flapper, the magnetic plate being positioned between the first and second permanent magnets, the flapper being connected at one end to the magnetic plate; and further comprising: first and second fastening means each extending through the first pole piece, the armature and the second pole piece to thereby fasten the torque motor together.

A method for producing one or more concave cut-outs on a main body, which is in particular substantially cylindrical, more particularly one or more grooves on a magnetic armature, a push rod, or a magnetic keeper plate, includes the following steps: providing a main body, which is in particular substantially cylindrical and has a first axis of rotation, rotating the cylindrical main body around the first axis of rotation in a first rotational direction by means of a lathe, and rotating a striking tool, which is provided with a number of fly cutters, around a second axis of rotation, which extends in parallel and offset in relation to the first axis of rotation in a second rotational direction, which is opposite to the first rotational direction, in such a way that the fly cutter engages in a material-removing manner in the main body to produce the cut-out.

An electromagnetic actuator includes an electromagnetic coil, a yoke serving as a magnetic path of a magnetic flux of the electromagnetic coil, an armature configured to move in an axial direction while being attracted by the yoke by energization of the electromagnetic coil, and a housing that houses the armature. The armature and the housing are coupled to each other by an engagement structure in which protrusions provided on one of the members engage with engagement grooves formed in the other one of the members. At least a part of the engagement groove is inclined with respect to the axial direction. When the armature moves while being attracted by the yoke, the protrusions of the armature slide along the engagement grooves of the housing, and the armature turns relative to the housing along the inclination of the engagement grooves.

A dual coil solenoid valve is disclosed for a fuel gas control valve, which comprises a stationary coil assembly and a moving coil assembly, wherein both the stationary coil assembly and the moving coil assembly consist of a magnetic core and a coil. Grooves are provided on the inside of the magnetic cores and coils are arranged in the grooves of the magnetic cores. The stationary coil assembly and the moving coil assembly have an equal cross-sectional area and are arranged oppositely with their axes coinciding with each other. The coils are arranged in the grooves of the magnet cores in such a way that the leakage flux can be reduced and the electromagnetic forces can be increased.

An actuator is provided that is attached to an electronic device and configured to generate sound and vibration. The actuator includes: a first casing having sidewalls and a bottom; a second casing affixed to the first casing and forming a top; a printed circuit board attached to the first casing and configured to transmit a signal; a voice coil configured to receive the signal from the printed circuit board; and a vibrator configured to vibrate by an electromagnetic force produced through an interaction with the voice coil. The first casing forms a surface that is attached to the electronic device.
