Electromagnetic actuator
First Claim
1. An electromagnetic actuator comprising:
- a first body which comprises a core comprising a first core portion and a second core portion which are spaced apart each other in a first direction, a biased permanent magnet disposed in a space between the first core portion and the second core portion, a magnetic path control device which is disposed beside the biased permanent magnet along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction and in the space between the first core portion and the second core portion to adjust a magnetic path produced by the biased permanent magnet, and a coil which is wound on the first core portion and the second core portion to reinforce or cancel the magnetic path produced by the biased permanent magnet; and
a second body which is separated from the biased permanent magnet and the magnetic path control device when at least one among the first core portion and the second core portion is between the second body and at least one among the biased permanent magnet and the magnetic path control device;
wherein each of the first core portion and the second core portion includes a C-shaped magnetic member including;
protrusions extending toward the second body, anda central portion which connects the protrusions and is proximate the biased permanent magnet and the magnetic path control device.

Abstract
An electromagnetic actuator includes a first body which includes a biased permanent magnet, a magnetic path control device which is disposed to adjust a magnetic path produced by the biased permanent magnet, at least one core which is disposed to face the biased permanent magnet and the magnetic path control device, and a coil which is wound on the at least one core so as to reinforce or cancel the magnetic path produced by the biased permanent magnet; and a second body which is separated from the biased permanent magnet and the magnetic path control device when the at least one core is between the second body and at least one of the biased permanent magnet and the magnetic path control device.
