Abstract

An electrical switch element is disclosed. The electrical switch element has a coil member, a yoke having at least one yoke member, and a control module. The control module is disposed between the coil member and the yoke member.

Claims (23)

1. An electrical switch element, comprising:

a coil member;

a yoke having at least one yoke member; and

a control module; wherein

the control module is disposed between the coil member and the yoke member and has a pocket having protection walls which extend away from the yoke member.

2. The electrical switch element according to claim 1 , further comprising electrical structural elements positioned in the pocket.

3. The electrical switch element according to claim 2 , further comprising electrical connection elements positioned on the control module and complementary connection elements positioned on the coil member, wherein the electrical connection elements matingly connect with the complementary connection elements.

4. The electrical switch element according to claim 3 , further comprising an assembly flange attached to the coil member, the assembly flange connecting to the control module.

5. The electrical switch element according to claim 4 , wherein the complementary connection elements are disposed on the assembly flange.

6. The electrical switch element according to claim 1 , wherein the control module extends through a recess of the yoke to an outer side of the yoke.

7. The electrical switch element according to claim 6 , wherein the control module is displaceably received in the recess.

8. The electrical switch element according to claim 7 , wherein the recess opens toward a free end of the yoke member.

9. The electrical switch element according to claim 6 , wherein the control module has at least one projection.

10. The electrical switch element according to claim 9 , wherein the yoke has a complementary receiving member, and the projection of the control module extends through the complementary receiving member.

11. The electrical switch element according to claim 1 , wherein the control module has a connection to terminals, the connection to terminals positioned outside the yoke.

12. The electrical switch element according to claim 1 , further comprising an insulation cap positioned between the control module and the yoke.

13. The electrical switch element according to claim 1 , further comprising a yoke plate having at least one fixing element.

14. The electrical switch element according to claim 13 , wherein the fixing element mechanically connects with the control module.

15. The electrical switch element according to claim 1 , wherein the coil member and control module are assembled as an assembly unit.

16. The electrical switch element according to claim 15 , wherein the assembly unit is connected with the yoke.

17. The electrical switch element according to claim 1 , wherein the yoke has a socket projecting from a base of the yoke into the yoke interior.

18. The electrical switch element according to claim 17 , wherein the socket has a flange abutting the yoke base.

19. The electrical switch element according to claim 18 , wherein the flange has a flattened portion opposite the yoke member.
