Abstract
The disclosure relates to an electromagnetic actuator for actuating a valve. The actuator has a housing, a core and a yoke. A coil body, which carries at least one coil winding, is arranged in the housing. The coil body encloses an armature space at least to some extent. An armature is arranged within the armature space such that it can be moved in its axial direction. A bearing element is arranged on the yoke and has a disc-shaped fastening portion and a tubular bearing portion, which bears the armature. The bearing portion projects inwards from the fastening portion.
