Abstract:
1. An actuator unit of a sliding cam system fixable to an internal combustion engine or to a component thereof, the actuator unit comprising: at least one actuator pin for moving sliding cam units of the sliding cam system into different axial positions with the aid of at least one sliding groove on a circumference of the sliding cam units, which interacts with the actuator pin and which has at least one ejection ramp, the sliding cam system including an electromagnet unit, the at least one actuator pin loaded in the direction of the sliding cam unit by an actuating spring slidingly guided in a housing of the actuator unit, and the actuator pin or at least one component connected thereto being operatively connected to a latching device with latching elements guided in a shifting gate, the shifting gate being spring-loaded by a spring and being actuatable by the electromagnet unit, the spring of the shifting gate being a return stroke spring supported on the housing and loading the shifting gate in the insertion direction of the actuator pins, a force of the return stroke spring being greater than a force of the actuating spring, wherein the latching elements are operatively connected to a recess on the actuator pin and to a chamfer, and wherein the chamfer is situated on a bushing surrounding the shifting gate.
