Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] In prior art, large-current magnetic latching relays are usually fixed on printed circuit boards (PCB) by screw locking. This connection mode has the advantage of reliable connection, but the relays usually need to have longer connecting wires and mounting pieces, which increases the cost, and the relay body is relatively large, which is not conducive to miniaturization of the PCB. Based on this, in some applications, large magnetic latching relays are directly welded on the PCB, but these relays with pure copper dynamic / static spring pins and large pins are prone to melting of the plastic parts during the welding process due to excessive heat transfer caused by the large contact area between the pins and the series, finally leading to failure of the relay.

[0003] At present, some technologies have attempted to reduce the risk of heating by improving the pin material and optimizing the welding process, but it is still difficult to fundamentally solve this problem in actual application. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[0009] Preferably, the shunt copper piece and the elastic reinforcing piece have a U-shaped bending part at the same position, and the shunt copper piece and the elastic reinforcing piece have a gap at the U-shaped bending part.

[0010] Preferably, the surface of the first lead-out sheet and the second lead-out sheet is provided with a limiting protrusion or a limiting hole for fixing with the shell.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The utility model will be further described in combination with the embodiments and the drawings.

[0021] In the embodiments, as shown in the drawings, the utility model discloses a magnetic latching relay. Figs. 1-3As shown, it is a PCB-mounted magnetic latching relay, including an electromagnetic drive assembly 2, an armature assembly 3, a push card 4 and a contact assembly 5 arranged in the shell 1, the armature assembly 3 drives the push card 4 to drive the contact assembly 5 to open or close, the contact assembly 5 has a first lead-out sheet 501 and a second lead-out sheet 502 leading out of the shell 1, the end of the first lead-out sheet 501 and the second lead-out sheet 502 outside the shell 1 has a fork structure. The first lead-out sheet 501 and the second lead-out sheet 501 of the contact assembly 5 in this embodiment adopt a fork structure, which significantly reduces the contact volume of the lead-out terminal with hot tin in the tin furnace during soldering, reduces heat conduction, that is, reduces the heat transmitted to the relay through the contact assembly 5, finally protects the plastic parts of the relay from melting, and overcomes the heating failure problem in the soldering process of the magnetic latching relay and the PCB.

[0022] In the embodiment, as shown in Figs. 1-3 The end of the first lead-out sheet 501 and the second lead-out sheet 502 has at least four fork branches, and the front end of the fork branch is provided with a chamfer. In addition to overcoming the heating failure problem in the soldering process of the magnetic latching relay and the PCB, the fork branch design can also significantly increase the total contact area of the soldering area, enhance the filling effect of soldering at the connection point, provide more secure soldering strength, and reduce the risk of false soldering. The chamfer design of the fork branch helps the soldering tin to flow during the soldering process, so that the soldering tin can be uniformly distributed to form a high-quality soldering connection, ensure good electrical performance, thereby reducing the contact resistance and improving the reliability of the overall magnetic latching relay. The fork branch design also makes the structure after soldering more stable, and can effectively prevent the soldering point from loosening due to mechanical vibration or thermal expansion as the service life is prolonged, thereby enhancing the long-term reliability of the magnetic latching relay.

[0023] In the embodiment, as shown in Figs. 2-3 The contact assembly 5 further includes a static contact 503, a dynamic contact 504 and a dynamic spring sheet 505, the first end of the dynamic spring sheet 505 is fixedly connected to the second lead-out sheet 502, the second end is clamped with the push card 4, the static contact 503 is fixedly connected to the first lead-out sheet 501, and the dynamic contact 504 is fixed to the dynamic spring sheet 505 at a position close to the second end. The contact assembly 5 of this embodiment provides a solid guarantee for the effectiveness and safety of the magnetic latching relay in actual application in terms of improving the reliability of current transmission, enhancing mechanical durability, stabilizing contact performance, high current carrying capacity, simplifying installation and maintenance, and effectively preventing faults.

[0024] In the embodiment, as shown in Figs. 2-3As shown, the moving spring sheet 505 has a plurality of current distribution copper sheets 506 and at least one elastic reinforcing sheet 507 stacked in sequence. The current distribution copper sheet 506 and the elastic reinforcing sheet 507 have a U-shaped bending portion at the same position, and the current distribution copper sheet 506 and the elastic reinforcing sheet 507 have a gap at the U-shaped bending portion. The moving spring sheet 505 of the embodiment has the advantages of enhancing current distribution capacity, improving elasticity and buffering performance, reducing contact resistance, reducing heat generation, supporting higher frequency operation, and improving operation stability, etc.

[0025] In the embodiment, as shown, Fig. 3 The surfaces of the first lead-out sheet 501 and the second lead-out sheet 502 are provided with limiting protrusions 508 or limiting holes 509 for fixing with the shell 1. By providing the limiting protrusions 508 or the limiting holes 509 on the surfaces of the first lead-out sheet 501 and the second lead-out sheet 502, the connection and fixation between the shell 1 and the moving spring sheet 505 can be effectively ensured, and the loosening of the connection caused by mechanical vibration or temperature change during use can be prevented, thereby improving the stability and safety of the overall structure, preventing potential safety hazards such as short circuit or poor contact caused by loosening.
