Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of relays, in particular to a pushing member and a relay. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the prior art, the armature assembly of a relay drives a moving spring to move, so as to close or open a moving contact and a stationary contact. The pushing member in the prior art is generally made of plastic material. When the current carried by the moving spring is large, the moving spring is prone to heat, which softens or even melts the pushing member, resulting in that the closing stroke of the moving spring does not match the design, and the relay is prone to failure. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[0003] The present application aims to overcome the above-mentioned defects or problems in the background art, and to provide a pushing member and a relay, which have higher load capacity and reliability than the pushing member and the relay in the prior art.

[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the following technical solutions are adopted:

[0005] The first technical solution relates to a pushing member for being driven by an armature assembly of a relay to push a moving spring, wherein the part of the pushing member adapted to contact the moving spring is made of metal material.

[0006] The second technical solution is based on the first technical solution, wherein the pushing member is made of metal material.

[0007] The third technical solution is based on the second technical solution, wherein the pushing member is a stainless steel sheet metal part or a cast aluminum.

[0008] The fourth technical solution is based on the first technical solution, wherein the pushing member moves linearly relative to a housing of the relay, the pushing member includes a base body and a sliding fitting part, the parts of the pushing member contacting the armature assembly and the moving spring are formed on the base body, the base body is made of metal material, and the sliding fitting part is fixed to both sides of the base body and is in sliding fitting with a sliding groove of the housing.

[0009] The fifth technical solution is based on the fourth technical solution, wherein the base body is a sheet metal part or a cast part, the sliding fitting part and the housing are made of plastic material, and the sliding fitting part is integrally formed with the base body by insert injection molding.

[0010] The sixth technical solution is based on any one of the first to fifth technical solutions, wherein the metal material is stainless steel or aluminum or aluminum alloy.

[0011] The seventh technical solution relates to a relay, which comprises a housing, an armature assembly, a moving spring, a stationary contact, and a pusher as described in any one of the first to sixth technical solutions; the armature assembly rotates relative to the housing about a rotation axis extending along the Y-axis direction, the moving spring is provided with a moving contact, and the moving contact is closed or disconnected with the stationary contact along the Z-axis direction.

[0012] The eighth technical solution is based on the seventh technical solution, wherein the armature assembly is provided with a swing part, the pusher is provided with a first matching hole for the swing part to extend into along the Z-axis direction and a second matching hole for the moving spring to extend into along the X-axis direction, and the direction in which the swing part extends into the first matching hole and the direction in which the moving spring extends into the second matching hole are opposite to each other.

[0013] The ninth technical solution is based on the eighth technical solution, wherein all positions at which the pusher contacts the swing part are closer to the rotation axis along the X-axis direction than the second matching hole.

[0014] The tenth technical solution is based on the ninth technical solution, wherein the first matching hole is provided with a first abutting part and a second abutting part adapted to abut against the swing part on two sides along the Z-axis direction; the first abutting part and the second abutting part are both outwardly folded along the X-axis direction from the hole wall of the first matching hole; and the surfaces of the first abutting part and the second abutting part adapted to contact the swing part are both smooth curved surfaces.

[0015] The eleventh technical solution is based on the tenth technical solution, wherein the moving contact is closed downward with the stationary contact, the first matching hole is located above the second matching hole, and the first abutting part is located above the second abutting part; the part of the pusher between the first abutting part and the second abutting part is bent in a direction closer to the rotation axis along an upward direction, the outward folding directions of the first abutting part and the second abutting part are away from each other, and the first abutting part is outwardly folded away from the rotation axis.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the above solutions have the following beneficial effects:

[0017] In the first technical solution, the part of the pusher adapted to contact the moving spring is made of metal material, so when the external current load is large and the moving spring generates a large amount of heat, compared with the prior art in which the pusher is made of plastic material as a whole, it is more conducive to avoiding the situation that the moving spring group is softened or even melted due to the heat generated by the moving spring group, so that the closing stroke of the moving spring group does not match the design. Therefore, compared with the prior art, the load capacity and reliability of the relay are improved.

[0018] In the second technical solution, the pusher is made of metal material as a whole, so it has higher strength and is less affected by the heat generated by the moving spring group.

[0019] In the third technical solution, the pusher is a sheet metal part or a cast part, so it is easier to process and form.

[0020] In the fourth technical solution, the part of the pushing member in contact with the moving spring and the part in contact with the armature assembly are both formed on the base, and the base is made of metal material, so that the pushing member cannot be softened or even melted due to heating of the moving spring assembly. The sliding fitting part is in sliding fitting with the shell, so that the certainty of the movement direction of the pushing member is improved, and the freedom of the pushing member in other directions is restricted, so that the pushing member is less likely to be displaced or deformed when subjected to impact in an uncertain direction, and the reliability of the relay is improved.

[0021] In the fifth technical solution, the sliding fitting part is made of plastic material, so that the sliding fitting with the shell made of plastic material is more convenient, and it is less likely to produce scrapes to cause jamming or deflection. The sliding fitting part is integrally formed with the base by insert injection molding, so that the dimensional accuracy is higher and the dimensional tolerance is smaller.

[0022] In the sixth technical solution, when the metal material is stainless steel, the service life is longer and the strength is higher, and when the metal material is aluminum or aluminum alloy, the density is lower and the cost is lower. When the pushing member is a stainless steel sheet metal part, it is easier to be formed, the structure is simpler, the strength is higher, and it is more conducive to miniaturization design; when the pushing member is an aluminum or aluminum alloy casting part, it is easier to be formed, the density is lower, the strength is higher, and the cost is lower.

[0023] In the seventh technical solution, the dynamic contact is closed or disconnected with the static contact along the Z-axis direction, which means that the pushing member moves along the Z-axis direction, or the movement of the pushing member at least has a component along the Z-axis direction.

[0024] In the eighth technical solution, the pushing member is provided with a first fitting hole for the swing part to extend into along the Z-axis direction and a second fitting hole for the moving spring to extend into along the X-axis direction, and the second fitting hole for the moving spring to extend into along the X-axis direction can reduce the height of the contact part along the Z-axis direction, and is more conducive to saving the space of the relay along the Z-axis direction.

[0025] In the ninth technical solution, all positions of the pushing member in contact with the swing part are closer to the rotation axis along the X-axis direction than the second fitting hole (i.e. the position of the pushing member in contact with the moving spring assembly), which is conducive to reducing the movement stroke of the pushing member along the Z-axis direction while ensuring the distance between the dynamic contact and the static contact, especially conducive to reducing the highest point of the movement stroke of the pushing member, and conducive to making the highest point not higher than the highest point of the coil assembly, so as to save the height of the relay along the Z-axis direction.

[0026] In the tenth technical solution, the two sides of the first matching hole along the Z-axis direction are respectively provided with a first abutting portion and a second abutting portion adapted to abut against the swing portion, and the first abutting portion and the second abutting portion are respectively outwardly turned from the hole wall of the first matching hole along the X-axis direction, so that the contact point of the swing portion and the pushing piece can move along the outward turning direction, which is conducive to reducing the scraping between the swing portion and the pushing piece or the base body made of metal. The surfaces of the first abutting portion and the second abutting portion adapted to contact the swing portion are both smooth curved surfaces, the friction coefficient between the pushing piece and the swing portion is smaller, and the service life of the swing portion is higher.

[0027] In the tenth technical solution, by arranging the first abutting portion and the second abutting portion outwardly turned along the X-axis direction, the pushing piece can be made thinner, and the pushing piece can always correctly abut against the swing portion, which is conducive to realizing the miniaturization of the relay and ensuring that the swing portion can always abut against the second abutting portion at the lowest point, so as to ensure the travel distance of the overstroke along the movement direction of the pushing piece when the pushing piece enters the overstroke through the elastic piece after the moving contact and the stationary contact are contacted, and ensure that the moving contact can always reliably abut against the stationary contact.

[0028] In the eleventh technical solution, the part of the pushing piece between the first abutting portion and the second abutting portion is bent, which can reduce the size of the pushing piece along the Z-axis direction, and is more conducive to realizing the above functions in the case that the space along the Z-axis direction is small. In particular, when the swing portion is upwardly biased relative to the main body, the distance along the X-axis direction between the highest point to which the swing portion swings upwardly and the lowest point to which the swing portion swings downwardly will be larger, and the part of the pushing piece between the first abutting portion and the second abutting portion is bent, so that the swing portion can correctly abut against the first abutting portion and the second abutting portion when the swing portion swings upwardly to the highest point and swings downwardly to the lowest point, and the moving contact can correctly close or open the stationary contact. When the part of the pushing piece between the first abutting portion and the second abutting portion is bent, the outward turning directions of the first abutting portion and the second abutting portion are away from each other, which is conducive to making the contact point of the swing portion and the first abutting portion and the second abutting portion closer along the X-axis direction, and avoiding that the swing portion generates a larger reciprocating force along the X-axis direction on the pushing piece when the swing portion drives the pushing piece to move.

The two yokes 215 are arranged along the Z-axis direction, one end of each yoke 215 is fixedly connected with the core 214, and the other end forms a magnetic driving end 216. The two magnetic driving ends 216 drive the armature assembly 220 to rotate relative to the coil assembly 210 by converting the magnetic polarity. In the embodiment, each magnetic driving end 216 is provided with a protruding part 217 on both sides along the Y-axis direction.

[0080] As Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the armature assembly 220 rotates relative to the coil assembly 210 about a rotation axis Q extending along the Y-axis direction and is accommodated in the housing 10. The armature assembly 220 includes a permanent magnet 221, two armatures 222, a main body 223, two protruding shafts 224, and a swing portion 225, which are fixed to each other. The permanent magnet 221 is disposed in the main body 223 and is provided with two magnetic pole surfaces. The two armatures 222 are fixed to the two magnetic pole surfaces of the permanent magnet 221, respectively. The two armatures 222 extend in parallel to each other. Each armature 222 is partially located in the main body 223, and both ends of each armature 222 along the extension direction thereof extend out of the main body 223 and form an attraction portion 226 adapted to be attracted to a corresponding magnetic driving end 216. In this embodiment, the “extension direction of the armature 222” refers to the arrangement direction of the two attraction portions 226 of the armature 222. The two protruding shafts 224 extend out of the main body 223 from both sides of the main body 223 along the Y-axis direction and away from each other along the Y-axis direction. The two protruding shafts 224 are used to establish a rotation connection relationship with the two supporting members 230. The swing portion 225 extends out of the main body 223 perpendicularly to the Y-axis direction to cooperate with the push member 41. In this embodiment, the extension direction of the swing portion 225 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the armature 222. Specifically, in this embodiment, the intersection of the first plane 227 and the first straight line 228 is the first intersection point 229, which is located above the rotation axis Q along the Z-axis direction. The first plane 227 is a plane passing through the rotation axis Q and parallel to the extension direction of the armature 222. The first straight line 228 is a straight line perpendicular to the first plane 227 passing through the contact point between the swing portion 225 and the push member 41 when the moving spring set 31 and the stationary contact point set 32 are closed. In this embodiment, the main body 223, the two protruding shafts 224, and the swing portion 225 are made of plastic material and are integrated. The two armatures 222 are made of metal material. The main body 223, the two protruding shafts 224, the swing portion 225, the permanent magnet 221, and the two armatures 222 are integrally formed by insert injection molding to form the armature assembly 220 in this embodiment. As can be seen from the configuration of the armature assembly 220 in this embodiment, the relay 1 in this embodiment is a magnetic latching relay. Of course, in other embodiments, it can not have a magnetic latching function.

[0081] Referring to Figure 6 and Figure 8 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 The two supporting members 230 in this embodiment are shown. As Figure 6 and Figure 8As shown, the two supports 230 are fixed relative to the coil assembly 210 and located within the housing 10. The two supports 230 are used to support the armature assembly 220. Specifically, each support 230 is located along the Y-axis direction on the two sides of the coil assembly 210 respectively, and is arranged in correspondence with the slot 112. The two supports 230 are adapted to be inserted into the corresponding slot 112 along the Z-axis direction downward. Each support 230 extends along the Z-axis direction. Each support 230 is provided with two connecting holes 231 along the Z-axis direction. The two connecting holes 231 are adapted to be inserted into the two protruding portions 217 on the same side along the Y-axis direction correspondingly. Each support 230 is provided with an axle hole 232 which is rotatably matched with the corresponding protruding axle 224, and the axle hole 232 is located between the two connecting holes 231 along the Z-axis direction.

[0082] Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 , Figure 1 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 The contact portion 30 in the present embodiment is shown. As shown in Figure 1 , the contact portion 30 is arranged on the second seat body 120. The contact portion 30 is arranged along the X-axis direction with the magnetic circuit portion 20.

[0083] As shown in Figure 9As shown, each moving spring group 31 is arranged along the Y-axis direction. Each moving spring group 31 extends along the X-axis direction. Each moving spring group 31 includes at least one moving spring 310, more preferably, each moving spring group 31 includes at least two moving springs 310. In this embodiment, each moving spring group 31 includes three moving springs 310. In the same moving spring group 31, each moving spring 310 is arranged along the Y-axis direction. Each moving spring 310 includes at least one moving contact 311, a moving spring body 312, and an elastic element 313. In this embodiment, each moving spring 310 has one moving contact 311. All moving contacts 311 in the same moving spring group 31 form a moving contact group 314. In this embodiment, the number of moving contact groups 314 is the same as the number of moving spring groups 31, both being two. The two moving contact groups 314 include a first moving contact group 31c belonging to the first moving spring group 31a and a second moving contact group 31d belonging to the second moving spring group 31b. The movable spring body 312 has a fixed end 315 and a movable end 316. The fixed end 315 is connected to the load terminal 33. The movable end 316 extends away from the fixed end 315 along the extending direction of the movable spring body 312. In this embodiment, the fixed end 315 and the movable end 316 are arranged along the X-axis. The movable contact 311 is fixed to the movable spring body 312 and close to the movable end 316. One end of the elastic element 313 is connected to the movable spring body 312, and the other end is adapted to be pushed by the pusher 41. In this embodiment, the elastic element 313 is a compression spring. One end of the elastic element 313 is connected to the movable spring body 312 at the location of the movable contact 311. The other end of the elastic element 313 is adapted to be pushed by the pusher 41 and forms a gap with the movable end 316 along the movement direction of the pusher 41.

[0084] like Figure 9 As shown, each stationary contact group 32 has a stationary contact 320 corresponding to all moving contacts 311 in the corresponding moving spring group 31. In this embodiment, the moving contact 311 closes with the stationary contact 320 downward along the Z-axis and opens with the stationary contact 320 upward along the Z-axis. Correspondingly, the moving contact group 314 closes with the corresponding stationary contact group 32 downward along the Z-axis and opens with the corresponding stationary contact group 32 upward along the Z-axis. Specifically, the moving contact group 31c closes or opens with the stationary contact group 32a along the Z-axis, and the moving contact group 31d closes or opens with the stationary contact group 32b along the Z-axis. In this embodiment, the moving spring group 31 and the corresponding stationary contact group 32 constitute a switch 34. Specifically, the first moving spring group 31a and the first stationary contact group 32a constitute a first switch 34a, and the second moving spring group 31b and the second stationary contact group 32b constitute a second switch 34b.

[0085] like Figure 1 , Figure 9 and Figure 10As shown, each load terminal 33 is provided corresponding to each load terminal hole 121. Specifically, the first load terminal 33a corresponds to the first load terminal hole 123, the second load terminal 33b corresponds to the second load terminal hole 124, and the third load terminal 33c corresponds to the third load terminal hole 125. Each load terminal 33 is fixed to the second base 120 and passes through the corresponding load terminal hole 121 along the Z-axis direction, extending downwards out of the aforementioned relay body. Specifically, the first load terminal 33a and the second load terminal 33b are arranged along the Y-axis direction, and the portion of the third load terminal 33c extending downwards out of the base 11 is located in the middle of the base 11 along the Y-axis direction. The moving spring group 31 and the stationary contact group 32 in each switch 34 are respectively connected to different load terminals 33. At least one load terminal 33 is simultaneously connected to at least two stationary contact groups 32 to form a common terminal 330. In this embodiment, the first load terminal 33a is fixedly connected to and electrically connected to the first moving spring group 31a. The second load terminal 33b is fixedly connected to and electrically connected to the second moving spring group 31b. The third load terminal 33c is fixedly connected to and electrically connected to the first stationary contact group 32a and the second stationary contact group 32b to form a common terminal 330. In this embodiment, each load terminal 33 is provided with a connecting portion 331 perpendicular to the Z-axis direction. The connecting portion 331 is used to connect the stationary contact group 32 and / or the moving spring group 31. In this embodiment, the connecting portion 331 of the common terminal 330 is located below the connecting portions 331 of the other two load terminals 33 along the Z-axis direction, and the connecting portions 331 of the other two load terminals 33 are located on the same plane along the Z-axis direction. Specifically, the connecting portion 331 of the third load terminal 33c is located below the connecting portions 331 of the first load terminal 33a and the second load terminal 33b along the Z-axis direction, and the connecting portions 331 of the first load terminal 33a and the second load terminal 33b are located on the same plane along the Z-axis direction. Figure 10 As shown, in this embodiment, the connection portion 331 of the common terminal 330 is provided with a first arm 332 and a second arm 333. The first arm 332 and the second arm 333 extend away from each other along the X-axis and are respectively provided for two magnetic circuit units 20. In this embodiment, both the first arm 332 and the second arm 333 are connected to the stationary contact group 32, and the positions of the first arm 332 and the second arm 333 along the X-axis are closer to the magnetic circuit portion 20 than the connection portions 331 of the two other load terminals 33. Specifically, the first arm 332 is connected to the first stationary contact group 32a, and the second arm 333 is connected to the second stationary contact group 32b. The positions of the first arm 332 and the second arm 333 along the X-axis are closer to the magnetic circuit portion than the connection portions 331 of the first load terminal 33a and the connection portions 332 of the second load terminal 33b.

[0086] See Figures 11 to 17 , Figures 11 to 17The pusher 41 in the present embodiment is shown. Each pusher 41 is attached to the first seat body 110 and located in the housing 10. In the present embodiment, the pusher 41 moves along the Z-axis direction relative to the housing 10. As shown in Figure 11 , Figure 16 and Figure 17 , in the present embodiment, the pusher 41 includes a base body 410 and two sliding fitting portions 411. The base body 410 is provided with a first fitting hole 412 and a second fitting hole 413 from top to bottom along the Z-axis direction. The first fitting hole 412 is for the swing portion 225 to extend into from the coil assembly 210. The second fitting hole 413 is for the moving spring set 31 to extend into along the X-axis direction towards the winding axis P. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the fitting direction of the swing portion 225 and the fitting direction of the moving spring set 31 relative to the pusher 41 are substantially opposite. The two sides of the first fitting hole 412 along the Z-axis direction are respectively provided with a first abutting portion 414 and a second abutting portion 415 from top to bottom, which are adapted to abut against the swing portion 225. Since in the present embodiment, the moving contact set 314 is closed with the corresponding stationary contact set 32 along the Z-axis direction downward and is disconnected with the corresponding stationary contact set 32 along the Z-axis direction upward, the swing portion 225 abuts against the second abutting portion 415 downward in the closing stroke and abuts against the first abutting portion 414 upward in the disconnecting stroke. In the present embodiment, the first abutting portion 414 and the second abutting portion 415 are both outwardly flanged along the X-axis direction from the hole wall of the first fitting hole 412. The surfaces of the first abutting portion 414 and the second abutting portion 415 adapted to abut against the swing portion 225 form smooth curved surfaces, which are arc surfaces in the present embodiment. In the present embodiment, the portion of the pusher 41 between the first abutting portion 414 and the second abutting portion 415 is bent along the upward direction towards the direction closer to the rotation axis Q, and the flanging directions of the first abutting portion 414 and the second abutting portion 415 are opposite to each other, specifically, the flanging direction of the first abutting portion 414 is towards the load terminal 33 along the X-axis direction, and the flanging direction of the second abutting portion 415 is towards the rotation axis Q along the X-axis direction. As shown in Figure 12 and Figure 13 , the two sliding fitting portions 411 are respectively provided on the two sides of the base body 410 along the Y-axis direction. The portion of the sliding fitting portion 411 adapted to extend into the sliding groove 113 is substantially circular arc-shaped in the projection plane perpendicular to the Z-axis direction, and at least one concave portion 411 is formed on the outer edge of the circular arc, which extends along the Z-axis direction. In the present embodiment, the number of the concave portions 41 is two. As shown in Figure 14 and Figure 15As shown, the two sliding fit portions 411 slide fit with the two sliding grooves 113 of the housing 10 along the movement direction of the pusher 41, which is the Z-axis direction in this embodiment. The two sliding grooves 113 generally wrap the part of the corresponding sliding fit portion 411 extending into the sliding groove 113 due to the existence of the inwardly-retracted section 113c, and the two sliding grooves 113 limit the movement of the pusher 41 along the Y-axis direction. Each sliding groove 113 limits the movement of the corresponding sliding fit portion 411 along the X-axis direction. In this embodiment, the base body 410 is made of metal, specifically stainless steel, and is a sheet metal part, and in other embodiments, it can be a cast part, and the metal material can also be aluminum or aluminum alloy. The sliding fit portion 411 is made of plastic. The base body 410 and the two sliding fit portions 411 are integrally formed by insert injection molding. The size of the sliding fit portion 411 along the X-axis direction is larger than the thickness of the base body 410 along the X-axis direction. In other embodiments, only the part of the base body 410 suitable for contacting the moving spring set 31 is made of metal, i.e., the two edges of the second fitting hole 413 along the Z-axis direction are made of metal, and in other embodiments, only the upper edge of the second fitting hole 413 along the Z-axis direction is made of metal, which is used to contact and push the elastic member 313 elastically deformed relative to the moving spring body 312 to make the moving contact set 314 and the stationary contact set 32 close. In this embodiment, the upper edge is used to contact and push the elastic member 313 elastically deformed relative to the moving spring body 312 to make the moving contact set 314 and the stationary contact set 32 close. In other embodiments, the moving spring 310 only has the moving spring body 312, and the upper edge contacts and pushes the moving end 316 of the moving spring body 312 to make the moving contact set 314 and the stationary contact set 32 close.

[0087] Referring to Figures 16 to 20 , Figures 16 to 20 The internal structure and electrical structure of the relay 1 in this embodiment are shown in the schematic diagram. As Figure 16 and Figure 17As shown, the first magnetic circuit unit 21a and the second magnetic circuit unit 21b are mounted on the base 11 along the Z-axis. The two sliding engagement portions 411 of the first pusher 41a are respectively slidably engaged with the corresponding slide grooves 113 along the Z-axis. The two sliding engagement portions 411 of the second pusher 41b are respectively slidably engaged with the corresponding slide grooves 113 along the Z-axis. The first load terminal 33a, the second load terminal 33b, and the third load terminal 33c are respectively fixedly connected to the base 11. The first moving spring assembly 31a is fixedly connected to the first load terminal 33a, and the second moving spring assembly 31b is fixedly connected to the second load terminal 33b. The first stationary contact assembly 32a and the second stationary contact assembly 32b are respectively fixedly connected to the third load terminal 33c. The swinging portion 225 of the first magnetic circuit unit 21a extends into the first mating hole 412 of the first pusher 41a. The swinging portion 225 of the second magnetic circuit unit 21b extends into the first mating hole 412 of the second pusher 41b. The moving ends 316 of each moving spring 310 in the first moving spring group 31a and each elastic element 313 extend into the second mating hole 413 of the first pusher 41a, and the moving ends 316 of each moving spring 310 in the second moving spring group 31b and each elastic element 313 extend into the second mating hole 413 of the second pusher 41b.

[0088] like Figure 18 As shown, after the relay 1 in this embodiment is connected, the first magnetic circuit unit 21a controls the first switch 34a to close or open via the first pusher 41a. The two ends of the first switch 34a are respectively connected to the first load terminal 33a and the third load terminal 33c, and the first switch 34a independently controls the connection between the first load terminal 33a and the third load terminal 33c. The second magnetic circuit unit 21b controls the second switch 34b to close or open via the second pusher 41b. The two ends of the second switch 34b are respectively connected to the second load terminal 33b and the third load terminal 33c, and the second switch 34b independently controls the connection between the second load terminal 33b and the third load terminal 33c. The first switch 34a and the second switch 34b must be closed simultaneously for the first load terminal 33a and the second load terminal 33b to conduct.

[0089] like Figure 19 and Figure 20 As shown, in this embodiment, regardless of the situation, the position where the pushing member 41 abuts against the swing portion 225 is closer to the rotation axis Q than the second mating hole 413 along the X-axis direction. In this embodiment, on the first projection plane perpendicular to the Z-axis direction, the projection of the sliding mating portion 411 at least partially overlaps with the projection of at least one load terminal 33. Specifically, the projection of the sliding mating portion 411 at least partially overlaps with the projection of the third load terminal 33c. Since the swing portion 225 is configured such that the first intersection point 229 is located above the rotation axis Q along the Z-axis direction in this embodiment, the sliding mating portion 411 and the third load terminal 33c will not abut against each other along the Z-axis direction.

[0090] As shown in Figure 19 Fig. 6, when the switch 34 is in the open state, the movable contact 311 is separated from the fixed contact 320, the swing portion 225 abuts against the first abutting portion 414, and the lower edge of the second engaging hole 413 abuts against the moving end 316 upward. When the switch 34 needs to be closed, the swing portion 225 moves downward and abuts against the second abutting portion 415, and the movable contact 311 contacts the fixed contact 320. After the movable contact 311 contacts the fixed contact 320, the swing portion 225 continues to move downward into the overstroke, and the pusher 41 continues to move downward until the swing portion 225 moves downward to the limit as shown in Figure 20 Fig. 7. The elastic member 313 deforms to the limit, and the movable contact 311 is completely closed with the fixed contact 320. When the switch 34 needs to be opened, the swing portion 225 abuts against the first abutting portion 414, and drives the pusher 41 to move upward. The lower edge of the second engaging hole 413 of the pusher 41 moves upward until it abuts against the moving end 316 upward, and continues to drive the moving end 316 to move upward. At this time, the elastic member 311 restores the deformation, and finally reaches the open state of the switch 34 as shown in Figure 19 Fig. 8.

[0091] In this embodiment, the assembly process of the relay 1 includes:

[0092] Step 1, the magnetic circuit portion 20 and the push portion 40 are assembled to the first seat body 110 to form a first combination 51 as shown in Figure 21 Fig. 9, and the contact portion 30 is assembled to the second seat body 120 to form a second combination 52 as shown in Figure 22 Fig. 10. In Step 1, the process of assembling the magnetic circuit portion 20 and the push portion 40 to the first seat body 110 to form the first combination 51 includes the following steps:

[0093] Step 1.1, the armature assembly 220 and the support member 230 are assembled to the coil assembly 210 to form the magnetic circuit unit 21;

[0094] Step 1.2, each magnetic circuit unit 21 and the corresponding pusher 41 are respectively arranged to the first seat body 110. In the process of arranging each magnetic circuit unit 21 and the corresponding pusher 41, the swing portion 225 is inserted into the first engaging hole 412, then the sliding fitting portion 411 is inserted into the corresponding sliding groove 113 along the Z-axis direction, the support member 230 is inserted into the insertion slot 112 along the Z-axis direction, and each coil terminal 213 is inserted into the first seat body 110 along the Z-axis direction;

[0095] Step 2, the first combination 51 and the second combination 52 are inserted into place along the X-axis direction, and the movable spring group 31 is inserted into the second engaging hole 413 along the X-axis direction; and

[0096] Step 3: Cover the cover to the base 11, and fixed with the base 11.

[0097] Referring to Figure 23 and Figure 24 , Figure 23 and Figure 24 It is shown that the first combination 51 and the second combination 52 are inserted into the position, and the relative fixation between the first combination 51 and the second combination 52 is fixed. As Figure 23 and Figure 24 It is shown that the first seat body 110 and the second seat body 120 are inserted into the position, and the first seat body 110 and the second seat body 120 are inserted into the position. The first block 122 is inserted into the first interval 117 along the X axis direction, and the first block 118 and / or the second block 126 is elastically deformed. After being inserted into the position, the first block 118 and the second block 126 are restored to the deformation and are hooked with each other, and are clamped and matched along the X axis direction. After being inserted into the position, the plug 122 is limited and matched along the Y axis direction with the corresponding two second limiting blocks 116. After being inserted into the position, the third load terminal 33c is inserted into the interval between the first limiting block 115 and the second limiting block 116 along the X axis direction, and the third load terminal 33c is limited and matched along the Z axis direction with the first limiting block 115 and the second limiting block 116. In the embodiment, the third load terminal 33c is gap matched along the Z axis direction with the first limiting block 115 and the second limiting block 116, and the length of the second limiting block 116 matched along the X axis direction with the third load terminal 33c is less than the length of the first limiting block 115 matched along the X axis direction with the third load terminal 33c, so that the end of the second combination 52 away from the first combination 51 is allowed to be deflected downward relative to the first combination 51 when the first combination 51 or the second combination 52 is subjected to the force downward along the Z axis direction until the second block 126 is disengaged from the clamping along the X axis direction with the first block 118.

[0098] In the embodiment, when the cover is fixed with the base 11, the first combination 51 and the second combination 52 can be prevented from being disengaged along the X axis direction.

[0099] In the embodiment, the magnetic circuit part 20, the contact part 30 and the pushing part 40 are all attached to the shell, and the magnetic circuit part 20 includes at least two magnetic circuit units 21, and the moving spring group 210, the static contact group 32 and the pushing member 41 are all arranged correspondingly with the magnetic circuit unit 20. Therefore, at least two switches capable of being independently controlled are packaged in the shell 10 of one relay. Compared with the prior art, the material of the shell 10 is saved, the packaging volume of the relay 1 is reduced, and when more than two switches are realized, the occupied space is smaller than that of the prior art.

[0100] In the embodiment, at least one load terminal 33 is shared by at least two switches 34 to form a common terminal 330, through which the number of load terminals 33 is reduced, the integration of the load terminals 33 is improved, and the space occupation can be further reduced, and the cost is reduced. It can also be applied to most scenarios through flexible connection between the load terminals 33 and each moving spring group 31 and static contact group 32.

[0101] In the embodiment, the common terminal 330 is a load terminal 33, which can be selected to be electrically connected to an external circuit or not electrically connected to an external circuit. When connected to an external circuit, at least two external circuits can be controlled through the common terminal 330, or a parallel relationship can be established, or a total circuit and a branch circuit control can be established; when not electrically connected to an external circuit, the common terminal 330 becomes a component bridging two or more switches 34, so that two or more switches 34 form a series relationship; therefore, it can be flexibly applied to various scenarios through different wiring methods. Since each switch 34 is controlled separately, such series or parallel relationship makes two switches form an "and" or "or" logical relationship, which can not only be applied to simple logic calculation, but also be applied to scenarios with higher safety and reliability requirements, avoiding uncontrolled switches due to failure of a single function part formed by the magnetic circuit unit 21, the pusher 41, the moving spring group 31 and the static contact group 32.

[0102] In the embodiment, the electrical connection relationship inside the relay 1 can be selected according to customer needs, especially the loading mode of the external circuit, so that the relay has greater versatility.

[0103] In the embodiment, each coil terminal 213 and each load terminal 33 extends downward along the Z-axis direction, which is convenient for electrical connection with the circuit board.

[0104] In the embodiment, the winding axis P of the coil winding 212 extends along the Z-axis direction, which is consistent with the extension direction of each coil terminal 213 and each load terminal 33, thereby reducing the board area of the relay 1.

[0105] In the embodiment, each magnetic circuit unit 21 is arranged along the Y-axis direction, each moving spring group 31 is arranged along the Y-axis direction, each pusher 41 is arranged along the Y-axis direction, and the magnetic circuit part 20 and the contact part are arranged along the X-axis direction, so that each function part is arranged perpendicular to the Y-axis direction, and each function part is arranged along the Y-axis direction, and each function part does not need to be staggered in space between each other, thereby reducing the structural complexity and assembly difficulty.

[0106] In the embodiment, the moving spring group 31 includes at least two moving springs 310, which can reduce the total contact resistance between the moving contact 311 and the static contact 320, reduce the heat generation, and reduce the power consumption.

[0107] In this embodiment, each moving spring 310 is provided with one moving contact 311, compared with the scheme that the same moving spring 310 is provided with multiple moving contacts, it can avoid that some moving contacts 311 cannot be effectively closed with the static contact 320 when the moving spring 311 moves, or it can avoid that some moving contacts 310 increase the contact resistance when they are closed due to the inability to withstand uniform force.

[0108] In this embodiment, by providing the elastic member 313 between the moving spring body 312 and the pushing member 41, the pushing member 41 can achieve overtravel, and the moving contact 311 can be more reliably closed with the static contact 320.

[0109] In this embodiment, the pushing member 41 directly pushes the moving end 316 of the moving spring body 312 to drive the moving contact 311 to disconnect with the static contact 320, the breaking time is shorter, so the arc drawing time is shorter, and the service life of the relay 1 is higher.

[0110] In this embodiment, the elastic member 313 is a compression spring connected to the moving spring body 312, compared with the elastic member 313 being connected to the moving spring body 312 in other ways or other forms of elastic member 313, the elastic member 313 has stronger impact resistance, which can avoid the elastic member 313 from being offset relative to the moving spring body 312 due to impact.

[0111] In this embodiment, the elastic member 313 and the moving spring body 312 are connected at the position of the moving contact 311, so that the force of the elastic member 313 when deformed can be more effectively transmitted to the moving contact 311, the moving contact 311 can be more reliably closed with the static contact 320, and the load capacity of the relay 1 is higher.

[0112] In this embodiment, the two supporting members 230 are fixed relative to the coil assembly 210 and are located on both sides of the coil assembly 210 along the Y-axis direction, which can effectively support the armature assembly 220, so that the armature assembly 220 can rotate relative to the coil assembly 210.

[0113] In this embodiment, the connecting hole 231 on the supporting member 230 and the protruding part 217 on the magnetic driving end 216 are inserted and matched along the Y-axis direction, which can more accurately position the supporting member 230 relative to the yoke 215. Since the supporting member 230 is the movement reference of the armature assembly 220, when the armature assembly 220 rotates relative to the coil assembly 210, the attracting part 226 can be more accurately attracted to the magnetic driving end 216.

[0114] In this embodiment, the armature assembly 220 further includes a permanent magnet 221, and the two armatures 222 are connected to two poles of the permanent magnet 221, so that the relay 1 has a magnetic retention function, and only needs to be controlled by a pulse electric signal to change and maintain the open or closed state, thereby saving electric energy.

[0115] In the embodiment, the main body 223, the two convex shafts 224, the swing part 225, the two armatures 222 and the permanent magnet 221 are integrally formed by insert injection molding, so that the armature assembly 220 is lower in manufacturing difficulty and less likely to cause loss of movement stroke due to tolerance accumulation.

[0116] In the embodiment, the moving spring group 31 extends along the X-axis direction, so that the height of the contact part 30 along the Z-axis direction can be reduced, the space of the relay 1 along the Z-axis direction can be saved, and the contact gap between the moving contact 311 and the stationary contact 320 along the Z-axis direction can be increased, thereby improving the voltage resistance of the relay 1.

[0117] In the embodiment, the two sliding grooves 113 are respectively slidably connected with the pushing member 41 along the Z-axis direction, and the groove walls of the two sliding grooves 113 are limitingly connected with the pushing member along the Y-axis direction and the X-axis direction. The determinacy of the movement direction of the pushing member 41 can be improved, and the freedom of the pushing member 41 in other directions can be constrained, so that the pushing member 41 is less likely to be displaced or deformed along the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction when subjected to uncertain impact, and the reliability of the relay 1 is improved.

[0118] In the embodiment, the groove wall surface of the sliding groove 113 is located at the circular arc segment 113b farthest from the bottom of the other sliding groove 113 along the Y-axis direction, so that the impact force of the pushing member 41 along the Y-axis direction can be better resisted, the impact force is dispersed to the housing 10, and the posture of the pushing member 41 can be automatically corrected when the pushing member 41 is subjected to impact force in an uncertain direction.

[0119] In the embodiment, the straight segment 113a is arranged, so that the pushing member 41 can be guided when being inserted into the sliding groove 113 along the Z-axis direction. The distance between the vertex of the inwardly converging segment 113c and the straight segment 113a is less than the diameter of the circular arc segment 113b, and the sector angle of the circular arc segment 113b is greater than 180 degrees, so that the stability of the circular arc segment 113b can be maintained, and the circular arc segment 113b is less likely to be deformed.

[0120] In the embodiment, the housing 10 is provided with the sliding groove 113 slidably connected with the sliding connection part 411 of the pushing member 41, the two sliding grooves 113 are respectively slidably connected with the sliding connection part 41 along the Z-axis direction, the groove wall surfaces of the two sliding grooves 113 are limitingly connected with the two sliding connection parts 41 along the Y-axis direction and the X-axis direction, and the groove wall surface of the sliding groove 113 is provided with the inwardly converging segment 113c, so that the deflection amount of the pushing member 41 is effectively limited when the pushing member 41 is deflected on the plane formed by the X-axis and the Y-axis, the determinacy of the movement direction of the pushing member 41 can be improved, and the freedom of the pushing member 41 in other directions can be constrained, so that the pushing member is less likely to be displaced or deformed when subjected to impact in an uncertain direction, and the reliability of the relay 1 is improved.

[0121] In the embodiment, the sliding fitting part 411 has a larger dimension along the X-axis direction than the thickness of the base 410 along the X-axis direction, which is more conducive to the sliding fitting part 411 to have the same gap with the sliding groove 113, so that the pusher 41 is less likely to be inclined along the X-axis direction to cause jamming and change the contact point with the moving spring 310 to avoid the stroke of the moving contact 311 deviating from the design purpose, ensure the distance between the moving contact 311 and the stationary contact 320, and thus ensure the withstand voltage capability of the relay 1.

[0122] In the embodiment, the inner recess 411a is arranged on the circular arc surface of the part of the sliding fitting part 411 extending into the sliding groove 113, so that the sliding fitting part 411 has a smaller contact surface with the groove wall surface of the sliding groove 113, is less likely to be rubbed or jammed, and slides more smoothly.

[0123] In the embodiment, the third load terminal 33c is partially located below the sliding fitting part 411, which is conducive to increasing the overcurrent area of the third load terminal 33c as the common terminal 330 to achieve greater carrying capacity, and at the same time, is conducive to reducing the heat generation. The first intersection 229 is located above the rotation axis Q, that is, the swing part 225 is upwardly biased relative to the main body 223, so that the sliding fitting part 411 is less likely to interfere with the load terminal 33 located therebelow, the movement stroke of the pusher 41 is more easily ensured, the distance between the moving contact 311 and the stationary contact 320 can be increased, and the withstand voltage capability can be enhanced.

[0124] In the embodiment, all positions where the pusher 41 contacts the swing part 225 are closer to the rotation axis Q along the X-axis direction than the second fitting hole 413 (i.e., the position where the pusher 41 contacts the moving spring set 31), which is conducive to reducing the movement stroke of the pusher 41 along the Z-axis direction while ensuring the distance between the moving contact 311 and the stationary contact 320, and in particular, is conducive to reducing the highest point of the movement stroke of the pusher 41, and is conducive to making the highest point not exceed the highest point of the coil assembly 210, and thus is conducive to saving the height of the relay 1 in the Z-axis direction.

[0125] In the embodiment, the two sides of the first fitting hole 412 along the Z-axis direction are respectively provided with the first abutting part 414 and the second abutting part 415 adapted to abut against the swing part 225 from top to bottom, and the first abutting part 414 and the second abutting part 415 are both outwardly turned along the X-axis direction from the hole wall of the first fitting hole 412, so that the contact point of the swing part 225 with the pusher 41 can be moved along the outward turning method, and this is conducive to reducing the scraping between the swing part 225 and the pusher 41 or the base 410 of the pusher 41 made of metal material.

[0126] In the embodiment, the first abutting portion 414 and the second abutting portion 415 are outwardly turned along the X-axis direction, which is beneficial to make the pusher 41 thinner, and can ensure that the pusher 41 always abuts against the swing portion 225 correctly, which is beneficial to realize the miniaturization of the relay 1 and to ensure that the swing portion 225 always abuts against the second abutting portion 415 at the lowest point, so that when the dynamic contact 311 contacts the static contact 320 and the pusher 41 enters the overstroke through the elastic member 313, the overstroke distance along the movement direction of the pusher 41 can make the dynamic contact reliably abut against the static contact. The surfaces of the first abutting portion 414 and the second abutting portion 415 adapted to contact the swing portion 225 are smooth curved surfaces, the friction coefficient between the pusher 41 and the swing portion 225 is smaller, and the service life of the swing portion 225 is higher.

[0127] In the embodiment, the surfaces of the first abutting portion 414 and the second abutting portion 415 adapted to contact the swing portion 225 are smooth curved surfaces, the friction coefficient between the pusher 41 and the swing portion 225 is smaller, and the service life of the swing portion 225 is higher.

[0128] In the embodiment, the part of the pusher 41 between the first abutting portion 414 and the second abutting portion 415 is bent, which can reduce the size of the pusher 41 along the Z-axis direction, and is more beneficial to realize the above functions in the case of small space along the Z-axis direction. In particular, when the swing portion 225 is biased upward relative to the main body 223, the distance along the X-axis direction between the highest point of the upward swing of the swing portion 225 and the lowest point of the downward swing of the swing portion 225 will be larger, and the part of the pusher 41 between the first abutting portion 414 and the second abutting portion 415 is bent, which is beneficial to ensure that the swing portion 225 can correctly abut against the first abutting portion 414 and the second abutting portion 415 when the swing portion 225 swings upward to the highest point and downward to the lowest point, so that the dynamic contact 311 can correctly close or open the static contact 320.

[0129] In the embodiment, when the part of the pusher 41 between the first abutting portion 414 and the second abutting portion 415 is bent, the outward turning directions of the first abutting portion 414 and the second abutting portion 415 are away from each other, which is beneficial to make the contact points between the swing portion 225 and the first abutting portion 414 and the second abutting portion 415 closer along the X-axis direction, and to avoid that the swing portion 225 drives the pusher 41 to move and generates a larger reciprocating force along the X-axis direction on the pusher 41.

[0130] In the embodiment, the magnetic circuit portion 20, the contact portion 30 and the push portion 40 are all attached to the base 11, and the movement relationship between them is more accurate based on the base 11. The packaging is realized by covering the base 11 along the Z-axis direction, and the assembly is simpler.

[0131] In the embodiment, the support 230 is not only inserted and matched with the convex part 217 of the magnetic driving end 216 along the Y-axis direction, but also inserted and matched with the slot 113 of the shell 10 along the Z direction, the freedom of the support 230 is completely limited, which is more conducive to supporting the armature assembly 220, so that the rotation axis Q of the armature assembly 220 cannot move along the X-axis direction, and when the relay 1 is impacted, the armature assembly 220 with large mass can transmit the impact force to the support 230 through the convex shaft 224, and the support 230 can transmit the force to the shell 10, so that the relative displacement between the components is not easy to occur.

[0132] In the embodiment, since the swing part 225 and the moving spring group 31 are respectively inserted and matched with the first matching hole 413 and the second matching hole 413 on the pushing part 41 in the directions opposite to each other, the base 11 is divided into the first seat body 110 and the second seat body 120, the first seat body 110 forms the first combined body 51 with the magnetic circuit part 20 and the pushing part 40, the second seat body 120 forms the second combined body 51 with the contact part 30, and the first combined body 51 and the second combined body 52 are inserted and matched along the X-axis direction, so that the moving spring group 31 is inserted into the second matching hole 413 along the X-axis direction during the insertion and matching process, the relay 1 in the configuration of the application can be more easily assembled, and the swing part 225 and the moving spring group 31 can be prevented from being inserted and matched with the pushing part 41 in the directions opposite to each other at the same time.

[0133] In the embodiment, the first combined body 51 and the second combined body 52 are prevented from being separated from each other along the X-axis direction before being fixed with the cover body through the first clamping block 118 and the second clamping block 126.

[0134] In the embodiment, the first combined body 51 and the second combined body 52 are fixed relative to each other along the Z-axis direction through the load terminal 33 and the first limiting block 115 and the second limiting block 116 along the Z-axis direction. The load terminal 33 is inserted into the first limiting block 115 and the second limiting block 116 along the X-axis direction, which can increase the flow area of the load terminal 33, and is conducive to improving the load capacity.

[0135] In the embodiment, the load terminal 33 is in clearance fit with the first limiting block 115 and the second limiting block 116 along the Z-axis direction, and the length of the fit between the second limiting block 116 and the load terminal 33 along the X-axis direction is smaller than the length of the fit between the first limiting block 115 and the load terminal 33 along the X-axis direction, which is beneficial for the second assembly 52 to be deflected downward relative to the first assembly 51 to make the second clamping block 126 disengage from the first clamping block 118, so that the first assembly 51 and the second assembly 52 can be quickly disassembled. At the same time, since the length of the fit between the first limiting block 115 and the load terminal along the X-axis direction is larger, the positions where the second assembly 52 and the first assembly 51 are inserted into each other are less likely to sink due to the impact force in the Z-axis direction downward, avoiding the positions where the first assembly 51 and the second assembly 52 are inserted into each other from becoming weak points after the relay 1 is assembled.

[0136] In the embodiment, the insertion block 122 is in limiting fit with the corresponding two second limiting blocks 116 along the Y-axis direction, so that the first assembly 51 and the second assembly 52 are fixed relative to each other along the Y-axis direction.

[0137] In the embodiment, the first clamping block 118 is arranged on the side of the second limiting block 116, and the second clamping block 126 is arranged on the side of the insertion block 122, so that the first clamping block 118 and the second clamping block 126 have greater connection strength and are less likely to disengage.

[0138] In the embodiment, the part of the pushing member 41 adapted to contact the moving spring set 31 is made of metal material, and in other embodiments, the part of the pushing member 41 adapted to contact and push the moving contact 311 and the static contact 320 of the moving spring 310 to close is made of metal material. Therefore, when the external current load is large, causing the moving spring set 31 to generate a large amount of heat, compared with the technical solution in which the part contacting the moving spring set 31 is made of plastic material, the pushing member 41 can avoid softening or even melting due to the heat of the moving spring set 31, so that the closing stroke of the moving spring set 31 does not match the design, causing the load capacity of the relay 1 to decrease, thereby improving the load capacity and reliability of the relay 1.

[0139] In the embodiment, the part of the pushing member 41 adapted to contact the moving spring set 31 and the part adapted to contact the armature assembly 220 are both formed on the base body 410, and the base body 410 is made of metal material, which can also avoid the pushing member 41 from softening or even melting due to the heat of the moving spring set 31.

[0140] In the embodiment, the sliding fit part 411 is in sliding fit with the housing 10, which can improve the certainty of the movement direction of the pushing member 41, and constrain the freedom of the pushing member 41 in other directions, so that the pushing member is less likely to displace or deform when subjected to impact in an uncertain direction, thereby improving the reliability of the relay 1.

[0141] In this embodiment, the sliding fitting part 411 is made of plastic material, which is easier to slide with the shell 10 also made of plastic material, and is not easy to produce scratches to cause jamming or deviation. The sliding fitting part 411 is integrally formed with the base 410 by insert injection molding, which has higher dimensional accuracy and smaller dimensional tolerance.

[0142] In this embodiment, when the base 41 is a stainless steel sheet metal part, it is easier to process and form, has a simpler structure, higher strength, and is more conducive to miniaturization design. When the base 41 is an aluminum casting or an aluminum alloy casting, it is easier to process and form, has lower density, higher strength, and lower cost.

[0143] In this embodiment, the other two load terminals 33 except the common terminal 330 are arranged along the Y-axis direction, which is consistent with the arrangement direction of each moving spring group 31, and is easier to connect with the moving spring group 31.

[0144] In this embodiment, the part of the common terminal 330 extending downward is located in the middle of the base 11 along the Y-axis direction, which has higher space utilization.

[0145] In this embodiment, each load terminal 33 is provided with a connecting part 331 perpendicular to the Z-axis direction, so that the load terminal 33 can be laid along the X-axis and Y-axis, which not only can reduce the height of the relay 1 along the Z-axis direction, but also can increase the current-carrying area of the load terminal 33, improve the load capacity of the relay 1, and is particularly suitable for application in a large current environment, such as a large current environment with a load current of 80A. At this time, by setting the common terminal 330, the structure of the relay 1 can be more compact and occupy less space when meeting the requirements of multi-way control function in a large current environment.

[0146] In this embodiment, the connecting parts 331 of the three load terminals 33 are arranged in two layers along the Z-axis direction, so that all the switches 34 are located between the two layers of connecting parts 331, which is conducive to reducing the height of the relay 1 along the Z-axis direction and fully utilizing the space along the X-axis and Y-axis directions.

[0147] In this embodiment, the connecting part 331 of the common terminal 330 is provided with a first arm 332 and a second arm 333 extending away from each other along the X-axis direction and corresponding to the magnetic circuit unit, so that the common terminal 330 has a larger current-carrying area when occupying one of the two layers along the Z-axis direction.

[0148] In this embodiment, the connecting parts 331 of the other two load terminals 33 are farther away from the magnetic circuit part along the X-axis direction than the first arm and the second arm, so that the three load terminals 33 use less material, have lower cost, and have a more compact structure.

[0149] In this embodiment, the assembly method of the relay 1 can avoid that the swing part 225 and the moving spring group 31 are inserted with the pushing piece 41 at the same time along directions opposite to each other.

[0150] In this embodiment, the magnetic circuit unit 21 is assembled first, and then the magnetic circuit unit 21 and the corresponding pusher 41 are attached to the first seat body 110 along the Z-axis direction, so that the magnetic circuit part 20 and the pusher part 40 are assembled to the first seat body 110 mainly along the Z-axis direction, and the assembly process is simpler.

[0151] Embodiment Two

[0152] Referring to Figure 25 , Figure 25 The pusher 41 in embodiment two is shown. As Figure 25 shown, in this embodiment, the pusher 41 also has a base body 410 and two sliding fit parts 411, but the pusher 41 is entirely made of metal material, and specifically can be made of stainless steel sheet metal part or aluminum casting part or aluminum alloy casting part. In this embodiment, the casting aluminum process is adopted. Since the sliding fit part 411 is made of metal material, correspondingly, the inner wall of the sliding groove 113 in contact with the sliding fit part 411 can be made of metal material to avoid scratching. The other parts of this embodiment are the same as those of embodiment one.

[0153] In this embodiment, the pusher 41 is entirely made of metal material, has higher strength, and is less likely to be affected by the heating of the moving spring group.

[0154] In this embodiment, when the pusher 41 is made of stainless steel sheet metal part, it is easier to process and form, has simpler structure, higher strength, and is more conducive to miniaturization design; when the pusher is made of aluminum casting part or aluminum alloy casting part, it is easier to process and form, has lower density, higher strength, and lower cost.

[0155] The other parts of this embodiment are the same as those of embodiment one, and will not be described again.

[0156] The above description of the specification and the embodiments is used to explain the protection scope of the present application, but does not constitute a limitation on the protection scope of the present application.
