  • Publication number: 20240128039
    Abstract: An electromagnetic relay includes an electromagnetic unit, a magnetic moving subunit, a first conduct, a second conduct, a movable lead, and a movable contact. The movable lead has a swing portion and a resilient linkage portion. The movable contact is disposed on the swing portion. When the electromagnetic unit is energized, the magnetic moving subunit is attracted by the electromagnetic unit and pushes the resilient linkage portion of the movable lead such that the resilient linkage portion urges the swing portion to swing and that the movable contact disposed on the swing portion is urged to be in contact with one of the first contact and the second contact. When the electromagnetic unit is de-energized, the electromagnetic unit ceases to attract the magnetic moving subunit such that the movable contact is in contact with the other one of the first contact and the second contact.

  • Publication number: 20140326590
    Abstract: A pushbutton switch includes a shell body, a resilient member, and a movable unit movable relative to the shell body between an upper limit position and a lower limit position. The movable unit includes a drive member and an electrical contact member driven by the drive member to move between a plurality of contact positions and a plurality of non-contact positions. The drive member has a plurality of inclined rod-engaging surfaces. When the movable unit is moved from the upper limit position to the lower limit position, one of the rod-engaging surfaces moves on a guide rod of the shell body, thereby resulting in rotation of the drive member relative to the shell body so as to covert the electrical contact member between the contact positions and the non-contact positions.
