Abstract

La présente invention se rapporte à un actionneur (301) électromécanique de soupape de moteur à combustion interne muni d'un électroaimant (300) polarisé exerçant une action magnétique sur un plateau (302) magnétique soumis à une action mécanique de rappel, cette action pouvant compenser l'action mécanique et maintenir le plateau (302) dans une position distante de l'électroaimant.
Selon l'invention, l'actionneur comprend des moyens pour que les déplacements du plateau soient uniquement contrôlés par cet électroaimant et l'action mécanique de rappel que telle sorte que le plateau effectue des aller-retour à partir de la position distante.
