Abstract
A bistable hoisting solenoid comprising first and second stroke end position and a stroke center position, comprising: a stator, one or more armatures, at least one coil, at least one permanent magnet and a spring system having a first spring which, in the first stroke end position, exerts a force in the direction of the stroke center position on the one or more armatures, and a second spring which, in the second stroke end position, exerts a force in the direction of the stroke center position on the one or more armatures. The one or more armatures, in the event of a loss of current, are held by permanent magnets in both stroke end positions. The first and the second springs have different paths with different lengths and/or exert in the respective stroke end position different sized forces on the one or more armatures and/or have different sized spring rates.
