AI Technical Summary
Existing relays require additional transmission or drive components in auxiliary contact switch control, resulting in an increase in the number of parts and the size of the relay, as well as difficulties in assembly.
An auxiliary moving contact with elastic swing capability is adopted. The auxiliary moving contact and the stationary contact are pushed to swing elastically by the movable push rod of the main contact system. The reset is achieved by the elasticity of the auxiliary moving contact itself, without the need for an additional drive structure. The elastic swing of the auxiliary moving contact is triggered by the movable push rod of the main contact system.
This approach simplifies the assembly process, reduces the number of parts, and maintains the compact design of the relay without increasing the compactness of the internal structure or the number of parts.

[0020] To further illustrate the embodiments, the utility model provides drawings. These drawings are part of the disclosure of the utility model, mainly used to illustrate the embodiments, and can be used to explain the operation principle of the embodiments in cooperation with the related description of the specification. With reference to these contents, those skilled in the art should understand other possible embodiments and the advantages of the utility model. The components in the drawings are not drawn according to scale, and similar component symbols are usually used to represent similar components.
[0021] The utility model is further illustrated in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments.
[0022] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As a preferred embodiment of the utility model, a relay with auxiliary contact is provided, which comprises a shell 100 and a main contact system 200. The shell 100 is shaped as a box-like structure, and the main contact system 200 is accommodated in the inner cavity of the shell 100. The main contact system 200 comprises a movable contact part 201 and a static contact part 202. The movable contact part 201 is arranged in a movable cavity 101 in the shell 100. The relay is turned on or broken by the movement of the movable contact part 201 relative to the static contact part 202.
[0023] The relay further comprises an auxiliary contact 3, which comprises an auxiliary movable contact piece 31 and an auxiliary static contact piece 32. Both the auxiliary movable contact piece 31 and the auxiliary static contact piece 32 extend out of the shell 100 from the movable cavity 101. The auxiliary movable contact piece 31 and the auxiliary static contact piece 32 are fixedly connected to the shell. At least the auxiliary movable contact piece 31 is an elastic body with elastic swinging capability, for example, the auxiliary movable contact piece 31 is a reed. The auxiliary movable contact piece 31 takes the connecting point with the shell 100 as the fulcrum P of elastic swinging. In this embodiment, both the auxiliary movable contact piece 31 and the auxiliary static contact piece 32 are inserted and fixed to the shell 100. The main contact system 200 further comprises a movable push rod 203 for driving the movable contact part 201, for example, Figure 3 and Figure 4 A boss 4 is fixedly arranged on the movable push rod 203, and a guide groove 5 is arranged on the inner side of the shell 100 and is in sliding cooperation with the movable push rod 203. The sliding limit of the movable push rod 203 is realized through the guide groove 5, so that the position stability of the boss 4 is improved. In this embodiment, a slide contact surface 2031 in the shape of a cut edge is arranged on the movable push rod 203, and the slide contact surface 2031 is in sliding cooperation with the guide groove 5. The auxiliary movable contact piece 31 comprises a pushed part 311 arranged on the slide path of the boss 4. When the movable push rod 203 moves, the movable contact part 201 is driven to move close to the static contact part 202 to turn on the main circuit. At the same time, the boss 4 on the movable push rod 203 pushes against the pushed part 311 to realize the swinging contact between the auxiliary movable contact piece 31 and the auxiliary static contact piece 32, so as to turn on the auxiliary circuit. Since the auxiliary movable contact piece 31 is an elastic reed, it is elastically stored after being pushed. Once the movable push rod 203 is reset and the boss 4 removes the pressure on the pushed part 311, the auxiliary movable contact piece 31 can be elastically reset. Therefore, the synchronous switching of the main circuit and the auxiliary circuit is realized.
[0024] The elastic swing of the auxiliary movable contact 31 is triggered by the existing movable push rod 203 on the main contact system 200, and the reset of the auxiliary movable contact 31 is realized by the elasticity of the auxiliary movable contact 31 itself, so that the switch control of the auxiliary contact 3 can be realized without adding other driving structures, the internal structure of the relay is kept compact, the number of parts is reduced, and the relay is easier to assemble.
[0025] In the embodiment, the guide groove 5 is integrally formed on the shell 100. The boss 4 protrudes from the radial direction of the movable push rod 203 to avoid interference with other components on the movable push rod 203.
[0026] In the embodiment, the auxiliary movable contact 31 includes an auxiliary movable contact 310, wherein the actuated part 311 and the auxiliary movable contact 310 are staggered, which can more flexibly set the position of the auxiliary movable contact 310 in the limited space of the movable cavity 101.
[0027] As shown in the drawings, Figure 1 The auxiliary contact 3 can be drawn out from the width direction of the shell 100 or from the height direction of the shell 100 according to the needs of different products. For example, in the embodiment, the auxiliary contact 3 is drawn out from the width direction of the shell 100, the auxiliary movable contact 310 and the fulcrum P are on the same side of the movable push rod 203, the auxiliary movable contact 310 is more compactly arranged in the space on the side of the movable push rod 203 along the width direction, and the actuated part 311 is a piece of the body extending from the position of the auxiliary movable contact 310 to the movable push rod 203 in the width direction. Figure 5 A variant of the embodiment is shown, in which the auxiliary movable contact 31A and the auxiliary static contact 32A are drawn out from the shell 100 in the height direction of the relay, the auxiliary movable contact 310A and the fulcrum P' are on both sides of the movable push rod 203, and the piece between the auxiliary movable contact 310A and the fulcrum P' is the actuated part. This structure can further expand the width of the pins of the auxiliary movable contact 31A and the auxiliary static contact 32A, and facilitate the arrangement of the structure on the back side of the relay. Referring to Figure 6 In addition, in this variant, a guide groove 5A is arranged on the inner side of the shell 100 to slide with the movable boss 4, that is, the boss 4 slides with the guide groove 5A arranged in the shell 100 in this embodiment.
[0028] Although the utility model is specifically shown and introduced in combination with the preferred embodiment, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes can be made to the utility model in form and details without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model defined in the appended claims, and all fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
