Abstract
In an electromagnetic relay wherein a movable contact spring (9) and a stationary contact spring (10) are inserted by molding into a base block (8), the width of a portion of the movable contact spring and the stationary contact spring within the base block is made larger than that of a portion thereof outside of the base block.
Claims12
An electromagnetic relay having an electromagnet assembly and a base block assembly for fixing said electromagnet assembly thereto, wherein:
- said base block assembly comprises a base block, a movable contact spring, and a stationary contact spring, said movable contact spring and said stationary contact spring being inserted by molding into said base block, said movable contact spring having a slit to effectively expand the length thereof and increase the flexibility of said movable contact spring, said stationary contact spring being made approximately L-shaped, to effectively increase the length thereof in accordance with the shape of said movable contact spring having said slit, said L-shaped stationary contact spring having a vertical portion and a horizontal portion, and said movable contact spring comprising a C-shaped element having top and bottom horizontal portions defined in part by said slit, said horizontal portion of said L-shaped stationary contact spring extending along said top horizontal portion of said C-shaped element of said movable contact spring.
An electromagnetic relay having an electromagnet assembly and a base block assembly for fixing said electromagnet assembly thereto, and said base block assembly comprises a base block, a movable contact spring, and a stationary contact spring, said movable contact spring and said stationary contact spring being inserted by molding into said base block, wherein said electromagnet assembly comprises:
- a core;
- a bobbin for inserting said core thereinto;
- a winding wound on said bobbin;
- an armature provided in an opposite direction to said movable contact spring and said stationary contact spring with respect to said core;
- and
- a card for connecting said armature to said movable contact spring, said card having two elongated portions extending from said armature to said movable contact spring along an axis of said core and bobbin;
- and
- an approximately cylindrical insulating barrier for covering said winding, said insulating barrier having an opening through which said electromagnet assembly is inserted and wherein said insulation barrier is disposed around said bobbin and between said bobbin and said card, and between said two elongated portions of said card.
An electromagnetic relay having an electromagnet assembly and a base block assembly for fixing said electromagnet assembly thereto, and said base block assembly comprises a base block, a movable contact spring, and a stationary contact spring, said movable contact spring and said stationary contact spring being inserted by molding into said base block, wherein said electromagnet assembly comprises:
- a core;
- a bobbin for inserting said core thereinto;
- a winding wound on said bobbin;
- an armature provided in an opposite direction to said movable contact spring and said stationary contact spring with respect to said core;
- and
- a card for connecting said armature to said movable contact spring, said card having a first portion for fitting on an upper portion of said movable contact spring, and a second portion for inserting into a hole provided at said movable contact spring, wherein said first portion of said card comprises a groove into which a top part of said movable contact spring fits, and said second portion of said card inserts within said hole of said movable contact spring, said hole disposed adjacent said top part of said movable contact spring.
