Electromagnetic relay

An electromagnetic relay comprising:

• a base in which connecting elements are anchored;
• a magnet system with a coil, a core arranged within the coil, an L-shaped yoke, and a plate-shaped armature, wherein a first yoke leg is arranged essentially parallel to a coil axis and a second yoke leg is connected to a first end of the core, the armature being pivoted on the first yoke leg and forming a working air gap with a second end of the core;
• and
• a contact system with a contact spring that is fastened to the armature and carries a movable contact, and at least one fixed contact carrier that carries a fixed contact and is anchored in the base,
• wherein the armature is pivoted on a pivot edge of the first yoke leg and is fastened to an outer side of the first yoke leg facing away from the coil by a return spring, which engages around the pivot edge, and
• wherein an attachment point of the return spring on the first yoke leg can be changed to adjust a return force of the return spring, and
• wherein at least an end portion of the connecting elements have fork-shaped divided end sections to form push-on slots configured to be pushed onto electrical rails.

An electromagnetic relay, comprising:

• a base having a pair of coil connecting elements and a pair of contacting connecting elements;
• a magnet system having a coil, a core arranged within the coil, an L-shaped yoke surrounding a portion of the coil, and a pivotable armature;
• and
• a contact spring fastened to the armature and configured to contact an end of one of the contacting connecting elements when a first current is applied to the magnet system through the coil connecting elements such that a second current travels through the contacting connecting elements,
• wherein the L-shaped yoke includes forked-shaped ends configured to be inserted into recesses of the base.
