US Patent 10288187 Device for regulating the flow of a fluid

A device for regulating the flow of a fluid id formed with a valve housing having at least two valve ports. A first fluid path that extends between the at least two valve ports is formed in the valve housing. A first valve seat is assigned to the first fluid path. A first closing element is arranged to be coupled to the first valve seat to block or release the first fluid path, and an electromagnetic actuating unit for actuating the closing element. The actuating unit has a first electromagnet and a second electromagnet that are coupled to the closing element via a coupling mechanism. The first and second electromagnets additively act on the closing element to displace the closing element between at least two positions.
