Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1241691A2] The device has a movable part (5) and at least one spring (3) that holds the movable part of the actuator in two stationary end positions (12) and has a dead point. The spring provides a central position (18) for the movable part between the end points and is designed so that bending the spring causes dead point to be reached before reaching the central position of the movable part.
