An electromagnetic actuator includes: a coil for excitation; a stator excited with different magnetic poles by energization of the coil; a rotor magnetized with the different magnetic poles in accordance with a circumferential direction, and rotated by a magnetic force generating between the rotor and the stator; and an outputting member rotated in conjunction with the rotor and outputting rotational movement of the rotor to a first blade and a second blade. The outputting member is provided with a fitting hole press-fitted onto the rotor.

Actuator and blade drive device for camera

An electromagnetic actuator includes; a coil for excitation; a stator excited with different magnetic poles by energization of the coil; a rotor magnetized with different magnetic poles in a circumferential direction thereof, and rotated by a magnetic force generated between the rotor and the stator; and an outputting member rotated in conjunction with the rotor and outputting rotational movement of the rotor to a first blade and a second blade. The rotor and the outputting member are jointed by welding and a welding portion of the rotor lies in a boundary of the magnetic poles thereof.

An electromagnetic actuator includes a cylindrical stator made of a permanent magnet and having annular end faces magnetized to plural magnetic poles, a coil securely disposed in a hollow portion of the stator via a bobbin on which the coil is wound and which is fixed to the stator's hollow portion, a rotary shaft put through the coil in the direction of the center axis thereof in such a way as to be rotatably supported at the bobbin, and a rotor of a soft magnetic material provided in such a way as to rotate together with the rotary shaft and having plural rotor arms radially extending from both end portions of the rotary shaft and facing the respective annular end faces of the stator.
