Claims
- 1. An electromagnetic relay having an electromagnet assembly and a base block assembly for fixing said electromagnet assembly thereto, wherein:
- said base block assembly comprises a base block, a movable contact spring, and a stationary contact spring, said movable contact spring and said stationary contact spring being inserted by molding into said base block, said movable contact spring having a slit to effectively expand the length thereof and increase the flexibility of said movable contact spring, said stationary contact spring being made approximately L-shaped, to effectively increase the length thereof in accordance with the shape of said movable contact spring having said slit, said L-shaped stationary contact spring having a vertical portion and a horizontal portion, and said movable contact spring comprising a C-shaped element having top and bottom horizontal portions defined in part by said slit, said horizontal portion of said L-shaped stationary contact spring extending along said top horizontal portion of said C-shaped element of said movable contact spring.
- 2. An electromagnetic relay as set forth claim 1, wherein the width of a portion of said movable contact spring and said stationary contact spring within said base block is larger than that of a portion of said movable contact spring and said stationary contact spring outside of said base block.
- 3. An electromagnetic relay as set forth claim 1, wherein said movable contact spring has an external terminal at an extension thereof, and said stationary contact spring has an external terminal at an extension thereof, a portion of said movable contact spring and said stationary contact spring within said base block near said external terminals being partially made slimmer.
- 4. An electromagnetic relay as set forth claim 1, wherein said electromagnet assembly comprises:
- a core;
- a bobbin for inserting said core thereinto;
- a winding wound on said bobbin;
- an armature provided in an opposite direction to said movable contact spring and said stationary contact spring with respect to said core; and
- a card for connecting said armature to said movable contact spring, said card having a first portion for fitting said movable contact spring thereto, and a second portion to be inserted into a hole provided at said movable contact spring.
- 5. An electromagnetic relay as set forth claim 4, wherein said card further has two parallel arms.
- 6. An electromagnetic relay as set forth claim 1, wherein said electromagnetic assembly further comprises an approximately cylindrical insulating barrier for covering said winding, said two parallel arms of said card being positioned on both upper sides of said insulating barrier.
- 7. An electromagnetic relay as set forth claim 1, wherein said electromagnet assembly is located at a distance from said movable contact spring and said stationary contact spring, to obtain an insulating effect therebetween.
- 8. An electromagnetic relay as set forth claim 1, wherein said base block has two parallel rails along an inserting direction of said bobbin.
- 9. An electromagnetic relay having an electromagnet assembly and a base block assembly for fixing said electromagnet assembly thereto, and said base block assembly comprises a base block, a movable contact spring, and a stationary contact spring, said movable contact spring and said stationary contact spring being inserted by molding into said base block, wherein said electromagnet assembly comprises:
- a core;
- a bobbin for inserting said core thereinto;
- a winding wound on said bobbin;
- an armature provided in an opposite direction to said movable contact spring and said stationary contact spring with respect to said core; and
- a card for connecting said armature to said movable contact spring, said card having two elongated portions extending from said armature to said movable contact spring along an axis of said core and bobbin; and
- an approximately cylindrical insulating barrier for covering said winding, said insulating barrier having an opening through which said electromagnet assembly is inserted and wherein said insulation barrier is disposed around said bobbin and between said bobbin and said card, and between said two elongated portions of said card.
- 10. An electromagnetic relay having an electromagnet assembly and a base block assembly for fixing said electromagnet assembly thereto, and said base block assembly comprises a base block, a movable contact spring, and a stationary contact spring, said movable contact spring and said stationary contact spring being inserted by molding into said base block, wherein said electromagnet assembly comprises:
- a core;
- a bobbin for inserting said core thereinto;
- a winding wound on said bobbin;
- an armature provided in an opposite direction to said movable contact spring and said stationary contact spring with respect to said core; and
- a card for connecting said armature to said movable contact spring, said card having a first portion for fitting on an upper portion of said movable contact spring, and a second portion for inserting into a hole provided at said movable contact spring, wherein said first portion of said card comprises a groove into which a top part of said movable contact spring fits, and said second portion of said card inserts within said hole of said movable contact spring, said hole disposed adjacent said top part of said movable contact spring.
- 11. An electromagnetic relay as set forth claim 10, wherein said core and bobbin are substantially cylindrical and define a central axis, and wherein said card is substantially in the shape of a rectangle having two length portions extending parallel to said central axis and first and second width portions extending perpendicular thereto, said first and second card portions formed on said first width portion.
- 12. An electromagnetic relay as set forth claim 1, wherein said electromagnet assembly comprises a bobbin having a winding therearound and an axis, and said stationary contact spring is formed in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the bobbin and winding.
