Abstract:
An electrical system including a linear motor in which energized forcer and thruster coils are used for the field and armature elements, respectively. In accordance with various exemplary embodiments, one or more thruster coils may be provided on a reciprocating shaft with opposing single or multiple fixed forcer coils. Using coils as the electromagnets for both forcer and thruster coils advantageously provides necessary power while also minimizing system weight and decreases in magnetism typically encountered with permanent magnets with rising temperature, resulting in higher and more controllable magnetic forces over varying temperatures. A ferrous system housing and open ferrous containers for the thruster coils may be further included to advantageously focus the magnetic forces. Additionally, multiple forcer and thruster coils may be disposed in various arrangements along the reciprocating shaft. Exemplary applications include use of such a system for controlling oscillations of a poppet valve in an internal combustion engine.

Claim (Index 22):
The apparatus of  claim 20 , wherein:\n said shaft is configured to oscillate a poppet valve for an internal combustion engine between open and closed dispositions; and said one or more processors are configured to store and execute said plurality of instructions that when executed cause said electrical power to be applied to said first and second forcer coils and said first and second thruster coils such that said shaft urges said poppet valve to said open disposition at said first longitudinal location during a first time interval, causes said poppet valve to remain stationary at said open disposition during a second time interval, urges said poppet valve to said closed disposition at said second longitudinal location during a third time interval, and causes said poppet valve to remain stationary at said closed disposition during a fourth time interval.
