RELAY HAVING BASE WITH MULTIPLE REGIONS IN WHICH A WINDING FRAME, MOVABLE TERMINAL, AND FIXED TERMINAL ARE ARRANGED
Provided is a relay having a structure for preventing deformation of a movable spring when it is caulked. A yoke of the relay has a protrusion for caulking inserted in the movable spring, and a bulge portion adjacent to the protrusion and having a height lower than a height of the protrusion. By providing the bulge portion to the yoke, the dimensional change in the caulking direction of the movable spring when the movable contact is caulked can be reduced.
1 . A relay comprising:
an electromagnet having a coil wounded on a winding frame and an iron core positioned in the winding frame;
a movable terminal having a movable contact moved by activation of the electromagnet;
a fixed terminal having a fixed contact opposed to the movable contact; and
a base in which the winding frame, the movable terminal and the fixed terminal are arranged,
wherein the base has a first region including an insertion hole into which the movable terminal and the fixed terminal are inserted, a second region where the winding frame is arranged, and a third region between the first and second regions, and wherein a depth of the first region in an axial direction of the iron core is smaller than a depth of the third region, and a depth of the second region in the axial direction of the iron core is larger than the depth of the third region.
