[0002] As an electromechanical component, electromagnetic relays have been widely used. Conventional small electromagnetic relays generally include a base, a magnetic circuit part and a contact part arranged on the base. The contact part includes a movable spring part and a static spring part that cooperate with each other. The armature of the magnetic circuit part cooperates with the movable spring part through a push card. Specifically, a limit groove is provided on the movable spring piece of the movable spring part, and the limit hole is plugged and matched with a push column corresponding to the push card. In order to increase the current carrying capacity, the movable spring part usually adopts a method of superimposing and connecting multiple movable spring pieces. Therefore, when the push card cooperates with the movable spring part, each movable spring piece will be pushed at the same time. After the movable spring part adopts the stacking form, its flexibility is greatly reduced, resulting in a small deformation when the push card pushes the movable spring piece, which is not conducive to achieving contact overtravel. In order to solve this problem, some prior arts connect a push spring piece between the push card and the armature of the magnetic circuit part, and use the deformation of the push spring piece to achieve contact overtravel. However, this structure introduces an additional push spring piece, resulting in higher material cost and more troublesome assembly. Utility Model Content

For example, "connection" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection, a mechanical connection, an electrical connection, a direct connection, an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or a connection between two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0027] See also Figure 1-Figure 6 As shown, an electromagnetic relay of the utility model includes a base 1, and a magnetic circuit part 2 and a contact part installed on the base 1, the contact part includes a movable spring part 3 and a static spring part 4 that cooperate with each other, and the armature 23 of the magnetic circuit part 2 cooperates with the movable spring part 3 through a pushing card 5. The movable spring part 3 is provided with single-piece wings 311 extending outward along its lateral direction and elastically deformable on both sides in the width direction, and the pushing card 5 is provided with a pushing part 51 corresponding to each wing 311, which is used to push the wing 311, thereby pushing the movable spring part 3 to move. The push card 5 is provided with a force block 52 on the side facing the armature 23, which is used to receive the push of the armature 23. The pushing parts 51 of the pushing card 5 are respectively columnar, but are not limited to this. The width direction of the movable spring part 3 corresponds to Figure 3 The direction of the X-axis of the three-dimensional coordinate system corresponds to the thickness direction of the movable spring part 3 Figure 3 The direction of the Y axis of the three-dimensional coordinate system corresponds to the length direction of the dynamic spring part 3 Figure 3 The direction of the Z axis of the three-dimensional coordinate system.

[0028] Further, the movable spring part 3 includes a plurality of movable springs and a movable contact 33, and the plurality of movable springs are superimposed and connected together. Therefore, the movable spring part 3 of the utility model adopts a laminated structure, which can effectively increase the current carrying capacity and save space. The wing 311 is arranged on one of the movable springs 31, that is, the wing 311 is integrally formed with one of the movable springs 31, and the wing 311 will not contact with other movable springs when pushed by the pushing part 51. The movable contact 33 is fixed at one end of the plurality of movable springs and is located between the wing 311 on both sides of the movable spring part 3. The other end of the plurality of movable springs is connected with a movable spring lead-out pin 34. Specifically, the number of movable springs is two, and among the two movable springs, one of the movable springs 31 is closest to the push card 5 and is provided with an arc-shaped arch 314, and the other movable spring 32 is a flat sheet structure. In other embodiments, the movable spring part includes a movable spring and a movable contact arranged at one end of the movable spring, and the wing is arranged on the movable spring.

[0029] In this embodiment, one of the two sides of the wing 311 in the length direction of one of the movable springs 31 is flush with one end edge of one of the movable springs 31, and a notch groove 313 is provided between the other side and one of the movable springs 31, which is conducive to improving the flexibility of the wing 311.

In this way, it can be avoided that when one end of the other movable spring 32 is larger in width, it interferes with the wing 311 and affects the elastic deformation of the wing 311. In other embodiments, the wing is provided on the movable spring farthest from the push card, that is, on the other movable spring.

[0030] As a preferred structure, the push card 5 is rotatably connected to the base 1, and the rotation axis of the push card 5 is located in the width direction of the dynamic spring part. In this way, the push card 5 can play a certain limiting role to prevent the push card 5 from shifting when the product is impacted or vibrated.

[0031] In this embodiment, the magnetic circuit part 2 is vertical and inverted on the base 1. Specifically, in addition to the armature 23, the magnetic circuit part 2 also includes a coil frame 21, a coil 22 wound on the coil frame 21, a yoke 24, an iron core 25, and a restoring spring. The coil frame 21 is vertically placed on the base 1, and the iron core 25 is inserted into a through hole in the middle of the coil frame 21. The yoke 24 is L-shaped, and one side of it is connected to the upper end of the iron core 25, and the other side is located outside the coil frame 21 and extends downward; the armature 23 is limited at the edge of the other side of the yoke 24 by the restoring spring 26, and the armature 23 is L-shaped, one side of the armature 23 is located below the coil frame 21, and corresponds to the lower end of the iron core 25, and the other side of the armature 23 is located outside the other side of the yoke 24, and cooperates with the force block 52 of the push card 5.

[0032] The push card 5 has two legs 53 distributed along the width direction of the movable spring part 3, the two legs 53 extend downward respectively, and the bottoms of the two legs 53 are rotatably connected to the base 1 respectively. Specifically, the bottoms of the two legs 53 are respectively provided with a shaft portion 54, and the shaft portions 54 of the two legs 53 extend in the same direction; the base 1 is respectively provided with an axis hole 11 corresponding to each shaft portion 54, and the shaft portion 54 is movably inserted into the corresponding shaft hole 11. Therefore, the push card 5 of the utility model adopts an asymmetric side-mounted shaft structure, so as to avoid the problem of plastic chips generated by interference insertion or assembly with metal of the push card 5, and realize simple assembly.

[0033] The utility model also includes a shell with an opening at the bottom (not shown in the figure), the bottom of which is connected to the base 1 and contains the magnetic circuit part 2, the contact part and the push card 5 in its shell cavity. Figure 5As shown, the side of the push card 5 opposite to the inner side of the shell is provided with one or more convex parts 55, and the convex parts 55 are hemispherical or arc-shaped, so that the convex parts 55 and the shell are in point-surface matching or line-surface matching when in contact, thereby reducing the friction between the push card 5 and the shell, and making the push card 5 rotate more smoothly. Specifically, the two legs 53 of the push card 5 are provided with upper and lower convex parts 55 on the opposite outer sides respectively.

[0034] The electromagnetic relay of the utility model has the following working principle: when the coil is excited, under the action of electromagnetic attraction, one side of the armature 23 is attracted to the pole surface of the lower end of the iron core 25, and at the same time, the other side of the armature 23 swings toward one side of the push card 5, thereby pushing the push card 5 to swing toward the contact closing direction, so that the two push parts 51 on the push card 5 push the corresponding wing 311 respectively, thereby pushing the movable spring part 3 to swing until the movable contact 33 of the movable spring part 3 contacts the static contact 41 of the static spring part 4. After the movable contact 33 contacts the static contact 41, the push part 51 of the push card 5 continues to push the wing 311, causing it to undergo elastic deformation, thereby achieving contact overtravel.

[0035] Therefore, the utility model eliminates the need for an additional push spring in the movable spring part 3, thereby reducing material costs, reducing overall parts count, and making assembly easier. In addition, the wing 311 of the utility model has a small deformation, which can better transmit mechanical energy to the contact, effectively improving the electrical durability of the relay.

[0036] The utility model provides an electromagnetic relay, and the unrelated parts are the same as those in the prior art or can be implemented by using the prior art.

[0037] The above embodiments are only used to further illustrate an electromagnetic relay of the utility model, but the utility model is not limited to the embodiments.
