An apparatus for actuating a rocking motion of a movable component, the apparatus comprising: • an actuator, • a lever (15,40) configured to be subjected by the actuator to an angular displacement in two opposite directions with respect to a neutral positional range, • a support plate that is stationary with respect to the lever (15,40), • a movable component and a force transfer element (12,48,49) attached to the movable component, wherein the lever (15,40) is provided with a pair of oppositely placed pawls (20,21), the pawls (20,21) being shaped so as to engage with the force transfer element (12,48,49) and wherein the support plate is configured for forcing the pawls (20, 21) to pivot away from the force transfer element (12,48,49) so that any interaction between the pawls (20,21) and the force transfer element (12,48,49) is prohibited, characterized in that the pawls (20, 21) and the support plate are configured so that: - both pawls (20,21) are prohibited by the support plate from engaging with the force transfer element (12,48,49) when the lever (15,40) is within the neutral positional range, - the force transfer element (12,48,49) and thereby the movable component is displaced in the first of the two opposite directions by the first pawl engaging with the force transfer element (12,48,49), when the lever (15,40) exits the neutral positional range in the first direction, - the force transfer element (12,48,49) and thereby the movable component is displaced into the second of the two opposite directions by the second pawl engaging with the force transfer element (12,48,49), when the lever (15,40) exits the neutral positional range in the second direction, and - when the pawl (20, 21) that is not actuating a motion of the force transfer element (12, 48,49) approaches the support plate, the pawl (20, 21) is forced by the support plate to pivot away from the force transfer element (12,48,49). • an actuator, • a lever (15,40) configured to be subjected by the actuator to an angular displacement in two opposite directions with respect to a neutral positional range, • a support plate that is stationary with respect to the lever (15,40), • a movable component and a force transfer element (12,48,49) attached to the movable component, - both pawls (20,21) are prohibited by the support plate from engaging with the force transfer element (12,48,49) when the lever (15,40) is within the neutral positional range, - the force transfer element (12,48,49) and thereby the movable component is displaced in the first of the two opposite directions by the first pawl engaging with the force transfer element (12,48,49), when the lever (15,40) exits the neutral positional range in the first direction, - the force transfer element (12,48,49) and thereby the movable component is displaced into the second of the two opposite directions by the second pawl engaging with the force transfer element (12,48,49), when the lever (15,40) exits the neutral positional range in the second direction, and - when the pawl (20, 21) that is not actuating a motion of the force transfer element (12, 48,49) approaches the support plate, the pawl (20, 21) is forced by the support plate to pivot away from the force transfer element (12,48,49).
