<p>Electromagnetic actuators (100, 200), components of electromagnetic actuators, clutches that use electromagnetic actuators, and methods associated therewith for improved electromagnetic actuator operation and manufacturing methods. Embodiments of an electromagnetic actuator of the present disclosure includes a configuration of a housing (112, 212) and a flux washer (106, 206) relative a shaft (108, 208) helps to reduce the travel path for magnetic flux generated by an electrical coil (102, 202) contained therein. This more direct flux path, in turn, provides for a shorter loop for the magnetic flux, which helps to generate a greater relative magnetic force (e.g., a stronger clutch actuation force) as compared to other configurations.</p> |
