Electromagnetic relay
An electromagnetic relay includes: an excitation coil; a movable core; a movable contactor that operates by following the movable core; a fixed contactor that is in contact with the movable contactor when the excitation coil is energized; a base that supports the fixed contactor; a fixed yoke fixed to the base; a moving yoke; a first pressing spring that biases the moving yoke toward the movable contactor; and a second pressing spring that biases the movable contactor such that the movable contactor and the fixed contactor are in contact with each other. The moving yoke is disposed to be in contact with a surface of the movable contactor opposite from the fixed contactor and to oppose the fixed yoke through the movable contactor. The moving yoke is provided to be able to contact and separate from the movable contactor.
1. An electromagnetic relay comprising:
an excitation coil that forms a magnetic field at an energizing time;
a movable core that is driven by an electromagnetic force of the excitation coil;
a movable contactor that operates by following the movable core;
a fixed contactor that is in contact with the movable contactor when the excitation coil is energized;
a base that supports the fixed contactor;
a fixed yoke made of magnetic body and fixed to the base;
a moving yoke made of magnetic body and disposed to oppose the fixed yoke through the movable contactor and to be in contact with a surface of the movable contactor opposite from the fixed contactor;
a first pressing spring that biases the moving yoke toward the movable contactor; and
a second pressing spring that biases the movable contactor such that the movable contactor and the fixed contactor are in contact with each other, wherein
the moving yoke is provided to be able to contact and separate from the movable contactor.
2. The electromagnetic relay according to claim 1 , wherein
the first pressing spring is a coil spring.
3. The electromagnetic relay according to claim 2 , wherein
the moving yoke has at least one of a protrusion portion or a recess portion on a surface of the moving yoke opposite from the movable contactor so as to restrain movement of the first pressing spring in a radial direction.
4. The electromagnetic relay according to claim 1 , wherein
the second pressing spring is a coil spring.
5. The electromagnetic relay according to claim 4 , wherein
the movable contactor has at least one of a protrusion portion or a recess portion on a surface of the movable contactor adjacent to the moving yoke so as to restrain movement of the second pressing spring in a radial direction.
6. The electromagnetic relay according to claim 4 , wherein
the movable contactor has at least one of a protrusion portion or a recess portion on a surface of the movable contactor opposite from the fixed contactor so as to restrain movement of the second pressing spring in a radial direction.
7. The electromagnetic relay according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a cover having a recess portion or a protrusion portion that holds at least one of an end of the first pressing spring and an end of the second pressing spring.
8. The electromagnetic relay according to claim 1 , wherein
the first pressing spring is fixed on the moving yoke.
9. The electromagnetic relay according to claim 1 , wherein
the second pressing spring is fixed on the movable contactor.
10. The electromagnetic relay according to claim 7 , wherein
the first pressing spring is fixed on the cover.
11. The electromagnetic relay according to claim 7 , wherein
the second pressing spring is fixed on the cover.
