Patent ID: 11192141

Abstract:
A vibrating actuator is disclosed, comprising: a magnet arrangement including at least one magnet (1); a hollow member (4) comprising at least one coil member (2) with a coil transversally surrounding a cavity (5) forming a longitudinal passageway for receiving the magnet arrangement and permitting a longitudinal relative movement between the hollow member (4) and the magnet arrangement; and elastic means (6) interconnecting the magnet arrangement and the hollow member (4). In one aspect, the elastic means (6) are thin membranes having an oblong shape with transversal indentations (10) on their opposite long sides. In another aspect, at least two magnets (1) are arranged with same polarities facing each other inside a magnet frame (8) at least partially surrounding the magnets (1). Furthermore, methods for assembling the magnet arrangement of a vibrating actuator, the hollow member of a vibrating actuator, and the overall vibrating actuator are disclosed.
