[0029] In addition, the insulating base 3 is further formed with a spring positioning groove 301 at the top thereof, the contact spring 4 is arranged in the bracket 5, and the lower end of the contact spring 4 is located in the spring positioning groove 301.

[0030] As shown in Figs. Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the movable contact 1 is arranged in the bracket 5 and is upwardly attached to the inner top wall of the bracket 5 under the elastic force of the contact spring 4. The top of the bracket 5 is provided with a through hole 5011, the through hole 5011 and the spring positioning groove 301 are arranged in an upper and lower relationship, and the size of the through hole 5011 is greater than that of the spring positioning groove 301, so that the contact spring 4 can pass through the through hole 5011 and be arranged in the spring positioning groove 301.

[0031] The through hole 5011 is provided at the top of the bracket 5, and the size of the through hole 5011 is greater than that of the spring positioning groove 301, so that in the injection mold used for forming the insulating base 3, a insert for forming the spring positioning groove 301 is arranged on the front mold or the rear mold, after injection molding, the insert directly exits from the through hole 5011 of the bracket 5, which makes the demolding of the injection mold very convenient, greatly reduces the complexity of the injection mold, reduces the cost and time of mold development, and at the same time, the contact spring 4 can pass through the through hole 5011 from top to bottom and be arranged in the spring positioning groove 301, which facilitates the assembly of the contact spring 4, improves the product assembly efficiency, and reduces the assembly time and labor cost.

[0032] It can be understood that the shape of the through hole 5011 is not limited in the utility model, as long as the size thereof is greater than that of the spring positioning groove 301, that is, the projection of the spring positioning groove 301 in the vertical direction can completely fall into the through hole 5011 upwardly.

[0033] See Figure 4 and Figure 5 The bracket 5 is provided with an upper stop plate 501, a lower embedded cover plate 502, and a side connecting plate 503 connecting the upper stop plate 501 and the lower embedded cover plate 502. The upper stop plate 501 and the lower embedded cover plate 502 are arranged vertically opposite each other. A through hole 5011 is located in the middle of the upper stop plate 501, and the lower embedded cover plate 502 is enclosed in the insulating base 3. Side connecting plates 503 are connected to both the front and rear sides of the upper stop plate 501 and the lower embedded cover plate 502, thus forming a channel running through the left and right sides inside the bracket 5. The moving contact piece 1 is transversely inserted into the channel, and both ends of the moving contact piece 1 extend outward from the bracket 5 to facilitate connection with the two stationary contacts of the DC contactor.

[0034] See Figure 2 and Figure 4 The lower cover plate 502 is provided with a support portion 5021 exposed from the spring positioning groove 301, and the lower end of the contact spring 4 elastically abuts against the support portion 5021. This utility model uses a metal support portion 5021 to support the contact spring 4, which is not easy to wear and will not produce foreign objects, thus avoiding foreign objects falling into the contact position of the DC contactor and causing non-conductivity.

[0035] See Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 The upper end of the push rod 2 is in the shape of an "I". The upper end of the push rod 2 passes through the center hole 5022 of the lower embedded cover plate 502. The push rod 2 and the bracket 5 do not contact each other. The insulating base 3 is provided with a protrusion 302 that wraps around the upper end of the push rod 2 to strengthen the high and low voltage insulation between the bracket 5 and the push rod 2. At the same time, the protrusion 302 is located in the spring positioning groove 301, and the lower end of the contact spring 4 is sleeved on the outside of the protrusion 302, which can also play a certain limiting role for the contact spring 4.

[0036] like Figure 5 As shown, the bracket 5 in this utility model is integrally stamped from a metal plate, and the lower embedded cover plate 502 is formed by splicing two bent ends of the metal plate. In addition, the lower embedded cover plate 502 is provided with multiple reinforcing holes. During injection molding, molten plastic fills the reinforcing holes to increase the strength of the connection between the insulating base 3 and the bracket 5.

[0037] See Figure 1The utility model discloses a push assembly of direct current contactor still includes lower armature 6, and lower armature 6 is U-shaped, and is clamped in the bottom of movable contact piece 1 upwards, and the two opposite side plates of lower armature 6 are respectively attached on the two corresponding vertical surfaces of movable contact piece 1, wherein, the side connecting plate 503 of support 5 is equipped with the position window 5031 that the side plate of lower armature 6 passes through. The two opposite side plates of lower armature 6 also stretch out the top surface of movable contact piece 1 upwards, for with the upper armature in direct current contactor cooperation uses. When the current flows through movable contact piece 1, under the magnetic field generated around movable contact piece 1, lower armature 6 and upper armature generate mutual suction, to provide the upward compensation force for movable contact piece 1, improve the short-circuit resistance of direct current contactor.

[0038] As Figure 2 The bottom of lower armature 6 is equipped with limiting groove 601, and the upper end of contact spring 4 is elastically abutted in limiting groove 601, and then contact spring 4 can always exert the upward elastic force on movable contact piece 1 through lower armature 6.

[0039] Of course, in certain embodiments of the utility model, the push assembly of direct current contactor can also not contain lower armature 6, and the upper end of contact spring 4 can directly elastically abut on the bottom of movable contact piece 1.

[0040] It can be seen that the push assembly of direct current contactor of the utility model is provided with through hole 5011 on the top of support 5, and the size of through hole 5011 is greater than the size of spring positioning groove 301, so in the injection mold for forming insulating base 3, by setting a insert for forming spring positioning groove 301 on the front mold or rear mold, after injection molding, the insert directly exits from the through hole 5011 of support 5, so that the injection mold stripping is very convenient, and the complexity of injection mold is greatly reduced, the cost and time of mold development are reduced, and at the same time, the contact spring 4 can pass through the through hole 5011 from top to bottom and be placed in the spring positioning groove 301, which facilitates the assembly of the contact spring 4, improves the product assembly efficiency, and reduces the assembly time and labor cost.
