Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electromagnetic relays, in particular to a moving contact mechanism of an electromagnetic relay. Background Art

[0002] Electromagnetic relays, as a common electronic control device, are widely used in fields such as automatic control, power systems, and communications equipment. The moving contact mechanism is a key component of electromagnetic relays, and its performance directly affects the relay's operational reliability and service life. However, existing electromagnetic relay moving contact mechanisms have several shortcomings in practical applications. For example, the contact stability between the moving and stationary contacts is less than ideal, prone to poor contact. During operation, high frictional resistance affects the sensitivity and accuracy of the movement. Furthermore, the moving contact mechanism is complex in structure, making assembly and maintenance difficult.

[0003] In the prior art, when using the electromagnetic relay moving contact mechanism, if there is no insulating protective cover, the operator is more likely to directly contact the live moving contact part during operation or maintenance, which greatly increases the risk of electric shock. When the moving contact or related components fail and need to be replaced, the lack of the convenient disassembly function of the protective cover will make the operation process cumbersome and prolong the maintenance time. Therefore, we propose an electromagnetic relay moving contact mechanism to solve this problem. Utility Model Content
