Door locking device, particularly for electrical household appliances

A door-locking device for an electrical household appliances, the electrical household appliance comprising a door, a coupling member connected to the door, and a movable latching slider being engaged by the coupling member to latch the door when the door is closed, wherein the door-locking device comprises

• an electromechanical control device including a locking pin adapted to cooperate with the movable latching slider to lock the door, said locking pin being movable between a rest position, wherein the locking pin allows the latching slider to move, and a lock position, wherein the locking pin prevents said latching slider from moving;
• wherein said electromechanical control device comprises
• a planar yolk of magnetically conductive material;
• a magnet part fixed to the planar yolk and comprising a permanent magnet polarized in a direction substantially perpendicular to the plane of the planar yolk;
• two electromagnets between which the magnet part is interposed, each electromagnet comprising a core of magnetically conductive material fixed to the yoke, and a solenoid wound to the core;
• and
• a rocking keeper of magnetically conductive material, comprising two arms connected to each other through a corner portion of the keeper, said corner portion resting on a support surface of the magnet part in such a way that the keeper is able to rock around the corner portion, between a first and a second position in contact with one or the other of the cores of the electromagnets, respectively;
• wherein the locking pin is connected to one of the arms of the keeper in such a way as to assume the rest position or the lock position when the keeper is in the first position or in the second position, respectively.
