Abstract
An electric actuating device for producing limited angular displacements comprising an ironless cylindrical coil mounted for rotation in an air gap of a magnetic circuit, the magnetic circuit being formed by a permanent magnet placed inside the coil and an outer part of magnetically permeable material surrounding the coil. The coil is connected through spiral springs to a source of electric control pulses. The spiral springs provide a return force for bringing the coil back to a rest position in the absence of a control pulse. Means are provided for limiting the angle of rotation of the coil.
