Patent ID: 8653918

Claim:
A single-coil actuator for low or medium voltage applications comprising: a first assembly which comprises a first casing having a first half-casing and a second half-casing coupled to each other, said first casing defining an internal space housing an electromagnet having a coil and an armature movable between two positions, said first half-casing having a first opening for the mechanical coupling of said armature with an external element, one of said first or second half-casing having a second opening for the electrical connection of said electromagnet, said electrical connection comprising a first connection element of a socket and plug-type connection which is electrically connected to said coil and positioned in correspondence of said second opening, and wherein said single-coil actuator further comprises a second assembly operatively coupled to said first assembly, said second assembly comprising a second insulating casing having a third half-casing and a fourth half-casing coupled to each other, said second casing defining an internal space housing electronic components operatively coupled to said electromagnet, one of said third or fourth half-casings having a third opening for the electrical connection between said electronic components and said electromagnet, a second connection element of the socket and plug-type connection, which is electrically connected to said electronic components, being positioned in correspondence of said third opening and being coupled to said first connection element.
