  • Patent number: 10636602
    Abstract: An electromagnetic relay includes a fixed contact part including a fixed terminal and a fixed contact connected to the fixed terminal, a movable contact part including a movable contact spring and a movable contact connected to the movable contact spring, an armature to which the movable contact part is connected, an electromagnet configured to move the armature, a magnet configured to stretch an arc generated between the fixed contact and the movable contact, and a first arc extinguishing plate and a second arc extinguishing plate configured to extinguish the stretched arc. The fixed contact and the movable contact are disposed between the first arc extinguishing plate and the second arc extinguishing plate. The magnet is disposed between a first pair of the fixed contact part and the movable contact part and a second pair of the fixed contact part and the movable contact part.

  • Patent number: 9330872
    Abstract: An electromagnetic relay includes a contact that includes a fixed contact and a movable contact, a permanent magnet provided on the peripheral side of the contact, and a non-magnetic body. The movable contact is displaceable in a first direction to move toward the fixed contact and in a second direction to move away from the fixed contact. The permanent magnet has a polarity direction perpendicular to the first and second directions. The non-magnetic body faces toward the direction of a Lorentz force that acts based on the permanent magnet in a direct electric current flowing through the contact.
