Abstract: An electromagnetic relay having a manual actuator wherein at an edge of the relay's housing is an opening formed in the shape of a mounting slot in which a pivot lever is mounted with a hinge segment. In an idle state, an outer lever segment of the pivot lever is lowered in a cavity of a housing wall while an inner lever arm extends along a housing wall perpendicular thereto. When the pivot lever is actuated, the inner lever arm actuates a movable relay part, in particular a bolt, up to a first operating position. When the pivot lever is rotated further, the inner lever arm can be locked with the movable relay part.

Abstract: A relay is provided with fixed contact mounts anchored in a base, as well as contact springs arranged between the fixed contact mounts. The springs are actuated at their free ends. The contact springs each have spring mounts that include terminal segments anchored in the base, respectively parallel to the fixed contact mounts, but outside the space enclosed by them. These terminal segments are connected with the appertaining contact springs via U-shaped connection segments; the connection segments are guided in corresponding guide channels of the base in an insulated fashion. In this way, several sets of switchover contacts can be arranged in simple and space-saving fashion in a relay base, given a predetermined terminal configuration.

Abstract: A package for receiving articles in successive arrangement and being of a type having one surface provided with projections, includes an outer enclosure defining an interior; and an insert receiving the articles and being placed in the outer enclosure. The insert has at least one inside surface which is provided with an elevation protruding inwardly from the inside surface into the interior of the enclosure, with the projections of the articles engaging in an area between an inner wall and the projection of the insert.
