Abstract

An electromagnetic actuating apparatus with two armature means which are designed to exert an actuating force on two tappet units which are extended in the longitudinal direction along a longitudinal movement axis and are guided such that they can be moved in a parallel manner in a common guide section of a housing which accommodates the armature means, wherein the tappet units each have an engagement end which is designed to interact with an actuating groove in a motor vehicle motor adjustment system and projects from the guide section at least in an engaged state, and the common guide section forms a guide end surface in which guide openings associated with the two tappet units, are open, wherein a connecting path which runs through center axes of the only two guide openings in the guide end surface forms an offset (v) from a surface center point of the guide end surface and/or from a surface center point of a housing end surface of the housing, wherein the surface center point lies on a perpendicular bisector of the connecting path.
