  • Patent number: 9711311
    Abstract: An electromagnetic relay includes an exciting coil, a pair of fixed contacts, a movable spring, a magnet, and a yoke in contact with the magnet. The pair of fixed contacts is arranged along a first direction. The movable spring comes into contact with or moves away from the fixed contacts in response to the turn on or off of current to the exciting coil. The magnet prolongs the arc generated between the fixed contacts and the movable spring. The magnet is adjacent to the fixed contacts along a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, and is adjacent to the exciting coil along a third direction orthogonal to the first direction and the second direction. The yoke is adjacent to the fixed contacts along the third direction in a state where the yoke is in contact with the magnet.

  • Patent number: 9640354
    Abstract: In a contact device, rotational movement of a movable contactor with a yoke attached is regulated by the fact that the yoke abuts against a wall surface of a wall portion. In an event where the movable contactor with the yoke attached moves rotationally, the yoke is allowed to abut against only a wall surface in one region obtained by dividing the wall surface by a virtual line passing through a rotation center of the yoke.

  • Patent number: 9530599
    Abstract: An electromagnetic relay includes an electromagnet block, a pair of fixed contacts, a movable spring, and a stopper. The electromagnet block includes an exciter coil and an armature. The movable spring includes a fixed portion and a movable portion. The fixed portion is fixed to the electromagnet block. The movable portion contacts fixed contact and is separated from the fixed contacts in response to turning on and off of an energizing of the exciter coil. The stopper configured to restrict a movement of the movable portion. The armature is fixed to the movable portion and is displaced unitarily with the movable portion. The movable spring is configured to, upon turning on the energizing of the exciter coil, cause the movable portion to move, by magnetic force, in an approaching direction in which the movable portion approaches the fixed contacts with the fixed portion functioning as a fulcrum, and contact the fixed connection portions.

  • Patent number: 9196442
    Abstract: A contact point device 1 includes a drive block 2 that has a drive shaft 25 to which a movable contactor 29 is attached, and drives the movable contactor 29. The movable contactor 29 is attached to the drive shaft 25 so as to be movable relatively to the drive shaft 25 in an axial direction of the drive shaft, and in addition, relative movement thereof in the axial direction is regulated due to abutment of the movable contactor 29 against a regulating portion 60. Then, between the movable contactor 29 and the regulating portion 60 is formed a rotational movement deregulating portion 80, which relaxes the regulation by the regulating portion 60 for the relative rotational movement of the movable contactor 29 in the axial direction.
