Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to a relay. The relay includes a frame and a header seal assembly base having contacts and a return spring. The relay also includes an armature assembly which engages the return spring. The armature assembly has at least one actuator. The relay further includes a core assembly located on the armature assembly. The core assembly has an end engaging the frame. The relay also includes a coil shim having a cutout section. The coil shim is connected to the frame and the cutout section engages the armature assembly when the relay is in the de-energized state. The coil shim has an opening for accepting the core assembly. The relay also includes a coil engaging the coil shim. The coil has an opening for accepting the core assembly.
Claims29
A relay, comprising:
- a frame;
- a header seal assembly base having a plurality of contacts and a return spring;
- an armature assembly engaging said return spring, said armature assembly having at least one actuator;
- a core assembly located on said armature assembly, said core assembly having an end engaging said frame;
- a coil shim connected to said frame, said coil shim having a bent portion with a cutout, wherein the perimeter of said cutout engages said armature assembly when the relay is in a de-energized state, and said coil shim having an opening for accepting said core assembly;
- and
- a coil engaging said coil shim, said coil having an opening for accepting said core assembly.
A relay, comprising:
- a frame;
- a header seal assembly base having a plurality of contacts and a return spring;
- an armature assembly engaging said return spring while the relay is in a de-energized state, said armature assembly having a plurality of actuators;
- a core assembly located on said armature assembly;
- a coil shim having a portion thereof forming a means for stopping rotation of said armature assembly when the relay is in said de-energized state, said coil shim having an opening for engaging said core assembly;
- and
- a coil engaging said coil shim, said coil having an opening for engaging said core assembly.
A relay, comprising:
- a frame;
- a header seal assembly base having a plurality of contacts and a return spring;
- an armature assembly engaging said return spring, said armature assembly having at least one actuator;
- a core assembly located on said armature assembly, said core assembly having an end engaging said frame;
- a coil shim connected to said frame, said coil shim having a leaf spring member, said leaf spring member engaging said armature assembly when the relay is in said de-energized state, and said coil shim having an opening for accepting said core assembly;
- and
- a coil engaging said coil shim, said coil having an opening for accepting said core assembly.
A relay, comprising:
- a frame;
- a header seal assembly base having a plurality of contacts and a return spring;
- an armature assembly engaging said return spring, said armature assembly having at least one actuator;
- a core assembly located on said armature assembly, said core assembly having an end engaging said frame;
- a coil shim connected to said frame, said coil shim having a circular-shaped protrusion, said protrusion engaging said armature assembly when the relay is in said de-energized state, and said coil shim having an opening for accepting said core assembly;
- and
- a coil engaging said coil shim, said coil having an opening for accepting said core assembly.
A relay, comprising;
- a frame;
- a header seal assembly base having a plurality of contacts and a return spring;
- an armature assembly engaging said return spring, said armature assembly having at least one actuator;
- a core assembly located on said armature assembly, said core assembly having an end engaging said frame;
- a coil shim connected to said frame, said coil shim having an elongated protrusion, said protrusion engaging said armature assembly when the relay is in said de-energized state, and said coil shim having an opening for accepting said core assembly;
- and
- a coil engaging said coil shim, said coil having an opening for accepting said core assembly.
