locating a push solenoid
I'm looking for a low-voltage push-shaft solenoid that I can drive
from a BS2. Duty cycle of 5-10%, shaft travel of .25 inch, shaft
force of 4 oz., ambient operating temp. of 10-80 degrees F..
Can someone point me to a reputable manufacturer?
Thanks!

add extension to rod to either go all the way through the solenoid or around
the coil
maybe using a permanent magnet core ? and bias it with the coil ?
I believe they always "suck in" - you have to do other things to make them

will need a transistor to drive these or a uln or unl2003, you
can order different voltages, force, travel distance and duty
cycles.

Not exactly "push"... more like "overshoot"

Heck! Why not a speaker? 1/4 inch travel 4 Oz shouldn't be to difficult.

solenoids on the shelf there. It looked like they had about 1/4" of travel
to them. But you'll need a driver transistor for them or something like a
ULN2003 driver. All the solenoids that I have seen can't be driven by any
MCU directly. Either a transistor or a small reed switch is used.

I have made PUSH solenoids by using a cylindrical
magnet as a plunger, not quite centered in the
solenoid coil. My application was a chime striking
mechanism.

Usually, when I think doorbell, I think of the classic DING which is the bottom
strike plate and the DONG which is the top strike plate. The solenoid is
energized
causing the striker to overshoot and hit the DING, where upon release of the
doorbell button, the striker is spring loaded back and strikes the DONG. [noparse]:o[/noparse])
Your method of using a magnet is essentially the same physics of a speaker I
mentioned earlier. With the addition of a magnet in the core of the
"solenoid".
you now have the capability of push and pull depending on the polarity you
apply.

Of course I had a spring return also, and the ballistic
motion of the magnet (with a plastic "striker" attached
caused it to overshoot and strike the chime just once
per actuation.
AFAIK the classic doorbell chime uses 24VAC, and the
"push" motion is really "pulling" the core into the
solenoid, with the extension sticking out the front end
and striking the chime.
