Patent number: 8514040Abstract: An electromagnetic relay assembly comprises a rotatable electromagnetic coil assembly, first and second pairs of opposed permanent magnets, and a switch assembly. The coil assembly comprises a coil, a core, and a rotatable coil housing. The coil is wound around the core. The core comprises opposed core termini, and the coil housing has an axis of rotation orthogonal to the coil axis. The magnet pairs fixedly positioned adjacent the core termini such that the core termini are respectively displacable intermediate the magnet pairs. The coil operates to create a magnetic field directable through the core for imparting coil housing rotation about the axis of rotation via attraction to the positioned/anchored magnets. The core termini displace linkage arms, and the linkage arms actuate contact-spring assemblies of the switch assembly intermediate open and closed positions.Type: GrantFiled: February 11, 2011Date of Patent: August 20, 2013Assignee: Clodi, L.L.C.Inventor: Philipp Gruner

Patent number: 7710224Abstract: An electromagnetic relay enables current to pass through switch termini and comprises a coil assembly, a rotor or bridge assembly, and a switch assembly. The coil assembly comprises a coil and a C-shaped core. The coil is wound round a coil axis extending through the core. The core comprises core termini parallel to the coil axis. The bridge assembly comprises a bridge and an actuator. The bridge comprises medial, lateral, and transverse field pathways. The actuator extends laterally from the lateral field pathway. The core termini are coplanar with the axis of rotation and received intermediate the medial and lateral field pathways. The actuator is cooperable with the switch assembly. The coil creates a magnetic field directable through the bridge assembly via the core termini for imparting bridge rotation about the axis of rotation. The bridge rotation displaces the actuator for opening and closing the switch assembly.Type: GrantFiled: August 1, 2007Date of Patent: May 4, 2010Assignee: Clodi, L.L.C.Inventors: Philipp Gruner, Klaus A.

Patent number: 7659800Abstract: An electromagnetic relay enables current to pass through switch termini and comprises a coil assembly, a rotor or bridge assembly, and opposing, balanced switch assemblies. The coil assembly comprises a coil and a C-shaped core. The coil is wound round a coil axis extending through the core. The core comprises core termini parallel to the coil axis. The bridge assembly comprises a bridge and a pair of actuators. The bridge comprises medial, lateral, and transverse field pathways. The actuators extend laterally from the lateral field pathway. The core termini are coplanar with the axis of rotation and received intermediate the medial and lateral field pathways. The actuators are cooperable with the switch assemblies. The coil creates a magnetic field directable through the bridge assembly via the core termini for imparting bridge rotation about the axis of rotation. The bridge rotation displaces the actuators for opening and closing the switch assemblies.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2007Date of Patent: February 9, 2010Inventors: Philipp Gruner, Klaus A. Gruner
