Zusammenfassung:A magnetic actuator assembly is disclosed, and includes a core, wiring, and a gate assembly. The core is constructed of a magnetic material, and includes a first end and a second end. The wiring is wound around a portion of the core. A predetermined amount of electric current is applied to the wiring to induce a magnetic field within the core. The gate assembly is positioned between the first end and a second end of the core. The gate assembly comprises a first gate member traveling between the first end and a second end of the core based on a threshold force being applied to the gate assembly. The threshold force is created by the magnetic field.
