Abstract: A relay is formed by a magnet system which includes a wound coil body, an L-shaped core arranged axially therein and an, L-shaped armature as well as an insulator base from which side terminal elements project and in which stationary and movable contact elements are arranged. The actuation of the movable contact elements is carried out by way of a slide coupled to the armature. The magnet system is fastened to the base with fastening continuations which are provided at the magnet system and that engage upward projections of the base thereby firmly joining the magnet system to the base. The L-shaped armature includes a free end seated at the free end of the longitudinal leg of the L-shaped core. The fastening of the armature is carried out by a U-shaped armature spring which includes one arm secured to the longitudinal leg of the L-shaped armature and a second arm plugged into the axial recess of the coil body which also houses the longitudinal leg of the L-shaped core.

Abstract: The relay has a T-shaped core and a U-shaped armature, the transverse web of the latter being mounted on the free end section of the core longitudinal limb, and the free ends of its longitudinal arms forming two parallel operating air gaps with respect to the transverse limbs of the core. In this way, particularly simple assembly and an operating air gap with large pole areas can be achieved using a small number of simple parts.

Abstract: A relay includes a base member; a magnetic system mounted on the base member and including an armature, a contact arrangement with a contact spring formed with a contact piece, and an actuating element coupled to the armature for transmitting armature movement to the contact spring. The armature element is linked to the contact spring at attack points between which the contact spring has zones of different configuration whereby the magnetic system is loaded substantially evenly upon actuation of the contact spring.

Abstract: A bistable switching arrangement has a magnetic system comprised of a yoke/core, an armature and at least one permanent magnet, as well as a magnetic coil. The armature is swingably held at the core by a spring and mechanically linked to a movable contact, with an air gap being formed in one switching state between the armature and a pole face of the yoke/core combination. In order to attain that only slight forces act upon the released armature, the permanent magnet is positioned in a region of the yoke to form one part of the cross sectional area, with the other part being formed by a non-magnetic member.

Abstract: A relay includes a base member that supports a magnetic system and has an armature pivoted on a bearing edge on the base member. The armature has a free end moveable in an actuation direction on the bearing edge relative to a pole face between a release position and an attracted position upon energizing and deenergizing of the coil, whereby the bearing edge extends in the plane of a second pole face. Received by a support area of the armature is a retention spring for holding the armature in contact with the bearing edge, with the retention spring being formed as a carrier bilaterally clamped at attack points which are substantially in alignment at least in one plane with the support area for the retainer spring.

Abstract: Relay having a coil, a magnetic system and a contact system which is actuatable via a comb of an electrically insulating material by the magnetic system and includes two pole paths, with the contact system being arranged in a casing comprised of a base member and a cover. In order to accomplish a separation of the pole paths, the comb (6) has a plate-shaped lug (7) which is guided in grooves (9, 16) arranged in the base member (1) and/or in the cover (17) and which extends between two pole paths of the contact system.

Abstract: Relay having a coil, a magnetic system and a contact system which is actuatable by the magnetic system via a comb made of an electrically insulating material and includes at least one essentially fixed contact and a contact controlled by the magnetic system. In order to realize the prestress of the essentially fixed contact (3), the resilient holder (21) is secured on an essentially rigid contact carrier (3'), with the resilient holder (21) being prestressed against the contact carrier (3') via a stopper which is bent outwards therefrom and supports the resilient holder.
