Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of relays, and in particular to a coil frame and an electromagnetic relay. Background Technology

[0002] An electromagnetic relay is an electronic control device that has a control system (also known as an input circuit) and a controlled system (also known as an output circuit). It is commonly used in automatic control circuits. In fact, it is an "automatic switch" that uses a small current and a low voltage to control a large current and a high voltage.

[0003] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the existing miniature electromagnetic relay 10′ includes a coil frame 1′, a yoke 2′, an enameled wire 3′, a stationary spring 4′, and a moving spring 5′, etc. Due to the compact structure and small size of the product itself, the conventional arrangement of the coil frame 1′ results in a creepage distance between the enameled wire 3′ and the yoke 2′. Figure 3 (As shown by the thick solid line), and the creepage distance between the enameled wire 3′ and the stationary spring 4′ is relatively small ( Figure 4 (As shown by the thick solid line) This means that the creepage distance between the high-voltage end and the low-voltage end is small, resulting in poor insulation and making the product susceptible to high-voltage breakdown. To improve the insulation between the high-voltage end and the low-voltage end of the electromagnetic relay, it is generally necessary to increase the size of the relay, which will lead to increased costs and a larger relay size.

The winding portion 12 is disposed between the two flange portions 11, and the two flange portions 11 protrude outwards radially along the winding portion 12. A stop block 13 is provided between the two flange portions 11 and the winding portion 12, forming a winding window 14 for the enameled wire 3 between the winding portion 12 and the stop blocks 13 at both ends. The outward protrusion of the stop block 13 along the radial direction of the winding portion 12 is less than the outward protrusion of the flange portion 11 along the radial direction of the winding portion 12.

[0036] In this embodiment, the stop block 13 is cylindrical, and the stop block 13, flange portion 11, and winding portion 12 are integrally formed. A groove 131 is provided on the outer surface of the stop block 13. However, the structure of the stop block 13 is not limited to this.

The groove wall of the groove 131 away from the winding window 14 is flush with the inner end face of the adjacent flange portion 11. However, the structure of the groove 131 is not limited to this. For ease of distinction, the groove wall of the groove 131 near the winding window 14 is named the first groove wall 1311, and the groove wall of the groove 131 away from the winding window 14 is named the second groove wall 1312. In other embodiments, the stop block can be of any shape or be a solid structure. The groove can be stepped or V-shaped, concave inward towards the axis of the winding portion.

[0037] There are multiple grooves 131, which are distributed around the circumference of the stop block 13. Reinforcing ribs 132 are provided between adjacent grooves 131 to increase the strength of the stop block 13 and prevent deformation of the stop block 13. A groove 131 extending around the circumference of the stop block 13 is provided on the side of the stop block 13 facing the yoke 2 that is fitted to the outside of the coil frame 1. That is, no reinforcing ribs are provided on the side of the stop block 13 facing the yoke 2.

The magnetic circuit part includes a yoke 2 and an iron core 8. The magnetic circuit part also includes a coil frame 1 as described above. The winding portion 12 of the coil frame 1 is wound with enameled wire 3. The iron core 8 is inserted into the coil frame 1 along the axial direction of the winding portion 12. The yoke 2 has an L-shaped structure, with one side located on one of the two flange portions 11 (i.e., Figure 8 The flange 11 located at the bottom is connected to the iron core 8, and the other side is located outside the winding window 14.

[0041] The coil frame 1 is provided with a mounting hole 16 extending axially along the winding portion 12, and the iron core 8 is inserted into the mounting hole 16. One of the flange portions 11 is provided with a slot 111, which extends radially along the winding portion 12 and communicates with the mounting hole 16. One side of the yoke 2 is inserted into the slot 111 and connected to the iron core 8.

[0043] The electromagnetic relay 10 also includes coil wrapping tape (not shown in the figure), which is pasted around the periphery between the two flanges 11 and covers the enameled wire 3 and the stop block 13, thereby increasing the electrical clearance between the enameled wire 3 and the yoke 2 and the stationary spring 4, thereby increasing the withstand voltage of the load medium of the enameled wire 3. At the same time, the coil wrapping tape sticks to the stop block 13, which can enhance the insulation.

[0044] This utility model discloses an electromagnetic relay that, by setting blocks 13 between the two flange portions 11 and the winding portion 12 of the coil frame 1, can increase the creepage distance between the enameled wire 3 and the yoke 2, as well as the creepage distance between the enameled wire 3 and the stationary spring 4 (the creepage distance between the enameled wire 3 and the yoke 2 is as follows). Figure 10 As shown by the thick solid line, the creepage distance between the enameled wire 3 and the stationary spring 4 is as follows: Figure 11 (As shown by the thick solid line), thereby improving the dielectric pressure resistance performance. In addition, the stop block 13 can also prevent the upper flange 11 of the two flanges 11 of the coil frame 1 from being too thin and deformed by the enameled wire 3. It can also improve the problem of pressure breakdown of the lower flange 11 of the two flanges 11 of the coil frame 1 due to being too thin.
