Abstract: A piezoelectric device includes a base member, a first conductive film arranged above the base member in contact with an upper surface of the base member, a piezoelectric film arranged above the first conductive film in contact with an upper surface of the first conductive film, a second conductive film arranged on the piezoelectric film, and an insulating portion provided inside a trench penetrating through the piezoelectric film and the first conductive film. The insulating portion has a higher electrical resistivity than the piezoelectric film.

Abstract: There is provided an electromagnetic contactor that ensures appropriately preventing a foreign matter from invading an auxiliary contact mechanism housing chamber from a main contact mechanism housing chamber via a through-hole on a partition wall; and a foreign matter from invading the main contact mechanism housing chamber from the auxiliary contact mechanism housing chamber via the through-hole on the partition wall. With an electromagnetic contactor (1), a main contact mechanism housing chamber (A) and an auxiliary contact mechanism housing chamber (B) are partitioned by a partition wall (10). The partition wall (10) has a through-hole (10a) through which a coupling shaft (34) is inserted. A foreign matter invasion prevention mechanism (60) is provided at a peripheral area of the through-hole (10a).

Abstract: A contact device includes a main contact mechanism including a pair of main fixed contacts and a main movable contact elastically supported by a movable shaft and disposed to contact with and separate from the pair of main fixed contacts; an auxiliary contact mechanism disposed at a different position from the main contact mechanism, and including a pair of auxiliary fixed contacts and an auxiliary movable contact disposed in an insulating auxiliary contact holding member connected to the movable shaft to contact with and separate from the pair of auxiliary fixed contacts; and a contact housing portion housing the main contact mechanism and the auxiliary contact mechanism. The movable shaft includes a main contact support portion for supporting the main movable contact, and an auxiliary contact support portion for supporting the auxiliary contact holding member. The main contact support portion is divided from the auxiliary contact support portion.

Abstract: There is provided a contact device including an accommodating case that accommodates a main contact point mechanism having fixed contacts, an external terminal that is disposed outside the accommodating case, and a terminal board that passes through the accommodating case and electrically connects the fixed contacts and the external terminal together. The terminal board has a bent portion surface-contacting with side surfaces of the accommodating case.

Abstract: The contact device includes a main contact mechanism that includes a pair of main fixed contacts and a main movable contact elastically supported by a movable shaft and disposed to be contactable with and separable from the pair of main fixed contacts, an auxiliary contact mechanism that includes a pair of auxiliary fixed contacts and auxiliary movable contacts disposed in an auxiliary contact holding member connected to the movable shaft so as to be contactable with and separable from the pair of auxiliary fixed contacts, and a contact housing portion that houses the main contact mechanism and the auxiliary contact mechanism. The movable shaft has a main contact support portion supporting the main movable contact and an auxiliary contact support portion supporting the auxiliary contact holding member. The main contact support portion and the auxiliary contact support portion are connected to each other via the auxiliary contact holding member.
