There is provided a solenoid actuator which is easy to carry out wiring work for coils thereof, and at the same time allows reduction of manufacturing costs through common application of a fixed wiring. A solenoid actuator is supplied with electric power from a power source, for generating an electromagnetic force to drive a driven member such that the driven member performs reciprocating motion. Two electromagnets each have a coil and arranged such that they are opposed to each other and spaced from each other. An armature is connected to the driven member, and arranged between the two electromagnets, for performing reciprocating motion in accordance with energization and deenergization of the two electromagnets to thereby drive the driven member such that the driven member performs the reciprocating motion. Two terminals are connected to opposite ends of said coil of said each of said two electromagnets, and arranged such that the two terminals protrude outward from each of the two electromagnets, respectively. A connector has four metal connectors electrically connectible to the power source. Each two of the metal connectors are connected to the terminals of the each of the two electromagnets, by effecting engagement between the each two of the metal connectors and the two terminals of the each of the two electromagnets in a direction parallel to a direction of the reciprocating motion of the armature.

1. A solenoid actuator supplied with electric power from a power source, for generating an electromagnetic force to drive a driven member such that said driven member performs reciprocating motion, comprising:two electromagnets each having a coil and arranged such that said two electromagnets are opposed to each other and spaced from each other; an armature connected to said driven member, and arranged between said two electromagnets, for performing reciprocating motion in a reciprocating direction in accordance with energization and deenergization of said two electromagnets, to thereby drive said driven member such that said driven member performs said reciprocating motion; two pairs of first metal connector elements, each pair of first metal connector elements connected to a respective coil of said two electromagnets, and arranged such that each pair of first metal connector elements protrude outward from a respective one of said two electromagnets; and a connector having two pairs of second metal connector elements electrically connectible to said power source, each pair of said second metal connector elements being connected to a respective pair of first metal connector elements on each one of said two electromagnets, the connector and the two pairs of first metal connector elements engage each other by relative linear movement therebetween in a direction parallel to the reciprocating direction of said reciprocating motion of said armature.
