Patent ID: 8228150

Claim:
An electromagnetic actuating apparatus comprising: an elongated actuating element having an engagement area at an end thereof, a stationary coil device for moving the elongated actuating element, the elongated actuating element has permanent magnet means for interacting with a stationary core area, a stationary mounting element, which acts as a yoke, is provided axially opposite the stationary core area for the elongated actuating element, the elongated actuating device is in the form of a piston at least in places, and the stationary coil device has at least one coil winding which is arranged on a support and whose winding wires are passed to contact elements and are electrically conductively connected to them, wherein connections between the winding wires and the contact elements are arranged with an elastomer cushion for vibration damping with respect to the support, wherein the contact elements are bendable between a mounting position and a final position, and the contact elements with the winding wires in the final position, rest on the elastomer cushion.
