Patent ID: 8362861

Claim:
Electromagnetic actuator device having: an armature unit which is axially guided in a housing ( 10 ) and movable by passing current through a coil device and in particular against a return force of a return spring out of a first stop position defined by means for limiting the stroke, characterised in that: the means for limiting the stroke have a stop element ( 40 ; 56 ; 64 ; 66 ) which is made of a non-magnetic material and is mounted terminally in the housing and which is designed to cooperate with a plunger unit ( 16 ; 60 ; 68 ) which can be actuated outside the housing and is designed for mechanically moving the armature out of the first stop position; the plunger unit and/or the stop element is constructed as a deep-drawn part; the armature unit is designed to cooperate with a distance piece ( 108 ) located intermediate of the second stop position opposite a direction of the first stop position, the distance piece being constructed in one piece with a plunger section ( 106 ) on the engaging side of the armature unit; and a lubricant equalising channel is formed by the sleeve section and the cylindrical armature body, in particular by a central bore ( 104 ) in the armature body which is aligned with the sleeve section.
