[0040] According to some embodiments of the present application, the arc-extinguishing grid assembly and the static part have an overlapping part in the normal projection of the arc-extinguishing grid assembly and the static part on a target plane, and the target plane is perpendicular to the contact separation direction of the moving contact and the static contact.

[0044] According to some embodiments of the present application, all the static contacts are located on the same side of the moving contact.

[0045] The above-mentioned embodiment has at least the following advantages or beneficial effects:

[0046] The relay of the embodiment of the present application has L5>L3, so that sufficient space is reserved between the two insertion parts, and the execution unit can be installed between the insertion parts of the two static parts, so as to make full use of the space between the two insertion parts, and the execution unit does not excessively increase the volume of the relay, which is beneficial to the miniaturization design of the product.

[0047] Further, since L3≤L1, the distance between the exposed parts of the two static contacts can be as large as possible while ensuring the distance between the contact parts of the two static contacts, so that the execution unit can be arranged in the space between the two static parts on the basis of ensuring the electrical distance. In addition, since the distance between the two exposed parts is large, the execution unit can be arranged on the outer surface of the contact cavity and between the two exposed parts, without occupying the space in the contact cavity.

[0048] Further, the relay is provided with an exciter, and the exciter is activated when the excitation signal appears, so that the exciter releases an impact object into the contact cavity, and the impact object can drive the moving contact to switch from the state of being in conduction with the contact part to the state of being disconnected from the contact part. In this way, the exciter plays the role of a "fuse" to timely disconnect the relay when the excitation signal appears, which is beneficial to improving the anti-sticking property of the moving and static contacts and realizing rapid arc-extinguishing.

[0049] Further, the adapter is made of heat-insulating material, so that the heat generated by the reciprocating contact and separation of the moving contact and the static contact can be avoided from being transmitted to the exciter through the contact cavity, thereby avoiding the exciter from being triggered by mistake.

[0050] Further, the adapter is made of metal material, when the exciter is connected with the contact cavity through the adapter, laser welding process is used for connection, which not only ensures the connection strength, but also ensures the sealing of the contact cavity.

[0051] Further, the arc extinguishing assembly is arranged on the side of the static contact piece facing the yoke plate, so as to make full use of the space between the static contact piece and the yoke plate, without occupying too much space of the relay along the arrangement direction of the two static contact pieces, which not only ensures the arc extinguishing effect of the arc extinguishing assembly, but also avoids causing the relay to be too large in size, and is beneficial to the miniaturization design of the product.

[0052] Further, in the contact separation direction of the moving contact piece and the static contact piece, the arc extinguishing grid assembly and the static contact piece have an overlapping part, and the pair of two arc extinguishing grid assemblies are respectively located at both ends of the length direction of the moving contact piece, so that the arc extinguishing grid assembly is as close as possible to the contact position of the moving contact piece and the static contact piece, and then when the arc is generated between the moving contact piece and the static contact piece, the arc can enter the arc extinguishing grid assembly with the shortest path, and the arc extinguishing speed is accelerated.

[0053] Further, the shortest distance between the two exposed parts is L1, and the shortest distance between the pair of two arc extinguishing grid assemblies is L2, since L2≤L1, the arc extinguishing grid assembly is closer to the moving contact piece, so as to accelerate the arc extinguishing speed.

[0054] Further, by setting the first arc guiding part, the arc generated between the moving contact piece and the static contact piece can flow along the extension direction of the first arc guiding part, so that the arc is lengthened, the arc extinguishing time is shortened, the dynamic and static contact points are avoided from being ablated for a long time, and the electrical endurance of the dynamic and static contact points is improved. In addition, with the help of the first arc guiding part, the arc can be transferred from the contact surface of the dynamic and static contact points to the end of the first arc guiding part, thereby reducing the loss of the contact surface of the dynamic and static contact points, and reducing the occurrence of the sharp phenomenon, and ensuring the electrical gap and voltage breakdown resistance between the dynamic and static contact points.

[0055] Further, by setting the second arc guiding part, the arc generated between the moving contact piece and the static contact piece can flow along the extension direction of the second arc guiding part, so that the arc is lengthened, the arc extinguishing time is shortened, the dynamic and static contact points are avoided from being ablated for a long time, and the electrical endurance of the dynamic and static contact points is improved. In addition, with the help of the second arc guiding part, the arc can be transferred from the contact surface of the dynamic and static contact points to the end of the second arc guiding part, thereby reducing the loss of the contact surface of the dynamic and static contact points, and reducing the occurrence of the sharp phenomenon, and ensuring the electrical gap and voltage breakdown resistance between the dynamic and static contact points.

[0056] Furthermore, the first arc-guiding section and the second arc-guiding section form a flared structure, which helps to confine the arc between the first arc-guiding section and the second arc-guiding section, thereby accelerating the arc flow to the arc-extinguishing component and shortening the arc-extinguishing time.

[0106] Exemplary embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, these exemplary embodiments can be implemented in many forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, they are provided so that this application will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the concept of the exemplary embodiments to those skilled in the art. The same reference numerals in the drawings denote the same or similar structures, and therefore their detailed description will be omitted.

[0107] It is understood that the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, in the embodiments of this application are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a process, method, system, product, or device that includes a series of steps or units is not limited to the steps or units listed, but may optionally include steps or units not listed, or may optionally include other steps or components inherent to these processes, methods, products, or devices.

[0108] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the relay of this embodiment includes a contact cavity 100, at least one set of contact components 200, a push rod member 600, and an arc-extinguishing component 300. The contact cavity 100 has a contact chamber 101. Each set of contact components 200 includes a moving contact 220 and two stationary contacts 210. The stationary contacts 210 are fixedly mounted on the contact cavity 100, and the moving contact 220 is movably disposed within the contact chamber 101 for contacting or separating from the two stationary contacts 210. The push rod member 600 is movable relative to the contact cavity 100, and a portion of the push rod member 600 is located within the contact chamber 101. The moving contact 220 is installed in the portion of the push rod member 600 located within the contact chamber 101. The arc-extinguishing component 300 is disposed within the contact chamber 101 for extinguishing the arc generated during the contact and separation process of the moving contact 220 and the stationary contacts 210.

[0109] In one embodiment, all of the stationary contact 210 are located on the same side of the moving contact 220.

[0110] As an example, the contact cavity 100 includes an insulating cover 110 and a yoke plate 130. The insulating cover 110 covers one side of the yoke plate 130 in the thickness direction, and the insulating cover 110 and the yoke plate 130 form a contact cavity 101. The stationary contact member 210 is fixedly mounted on the insulating cover 110.

[0111] In one embodiment, the insulating cover 110 includes a ceramic cover 111 and a frame 112. The ceramic cover 111 is made of ceramic material and is connected to the yoke plate 130 via the frame 112. A static contact 210 is mounted on the top of the ceramic cover 111.

[0112] As an example, the frame piece 112 can be a ring-shaped metal component, such as one made of an iron-nickel alloy. One end of the frame piece 112 is connected to the opening edge of the ceramic cover 111, and the other end is connected to the yoke plate 130. The frame piece 112 is provided between the ceramic cover 111 and the yoke plate 130 to facilitate the connection between the ceramic cover 111 and the yoke plate 130.

[0113] The number of contact components 200 can be one or more groups. When the number of contact components 200 is more than one group, it can be two, three, four or other groups.

[0114] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the following explanation will take two sets of contact components 200 as an example. For ease of explanation, the arrangement direction of the two stationary contact members 210 of one set of contact components 200 is defined as the first direction D1, the movement direction of the push rod member 600 is defined as the second direction D2, and the third direction D3 is defined. The first direction D1, the second direction D2, and the third direction D3 are all perpendicular to each other. In this embodiment, the contact separation direction between the moving contact member 220 and the stationary contact member 210 is the second direction D2.

[0115] Two sets of contact assemblies 200 are arranged along the third direction D3. The positions of the two stationary contacts 210 of one set of contact assemblies 200 correspond to the positions of the two stationary contacts 210 of the other set of contact assemblies 200.

[0116] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the stationary contact 210 has a stationary component 211, which is mounted on the top of the ceramic cover 111. The stationary component 211 has an insertion portion 211a and an exposed portion 211b. The insertion portion 211a extends into the contact chamber 101, and the exposed portion 211b extends out of the outer surface of the contact chamber 100. The stationary contact 210 also has a contact portion 215 located within the contact chamber 101. A moving contact 220 of a set of contact assemblies 200 is used to contact or separate from the contact portions 215 of the two stationary contact components 210 of the contact assembly 200. The shortest distance between the two insertion portions 211a is L5, and the shortest distance between the contact portions 215 of the two stationary contact components 210 is L3, where L5 > L3.

[0117] The relay in this embodiment of the application also includes an execution unit 700, which is installed in the contact cavity 100 and located between two stationary parts 211.

[0118] In the relay of this application embodiment, since L5 > L3, sufficient space is reserved between the two insertion parts 211a. The execution unit 700 can be installed between the insertion parts 211a of the two stationary parts 211 to make full use of the space between the two insertion parts 211a. Adding the execution unit 700 will not increase the size of the relay too much, which is beneficial to the miniaturization design of the product.

[0119] Furthermore, the shortest distance between the two exposed portions 211b is L1, where L3 ≤ L1. The execution unit 700 is located between the two exposed portions 211b.

[0120] In the relay of this embodiment, since L3 ≤ L1, the distance between the two exposed portions 211b can be maximized while ensuring that the distance between the contact portions 215 of the two stationary contacts 210 remains unchanged. This allows for the arrangement of the execution unit 700 within the space between the two stationary components 211, while maintaining electrical distance. Furthermore, because the distance between the two exposed portions 211b is large, the execution unit 700 can be arranged on the outer surface of the contact cavity 100, between the two exposed portions 211b, without occupying space within the contact cavity 100.

[0121] In one implementation, L1 < L5.

[0122] In one embodiment, the execution unit 700 can be any one or more of the following: an exciter 710, a temperature monitoring component, and an auxiliary contact monitoring component. When the execution unit 700 includes an exciter 710, the exciter 710 is activated when a threshold current passes through the moving contact 220, thereby timely disconnecting the relay. When the execution unit 700 includes a temperature monitoring component, the temperature of the contact cavity 100 can be monitored in real time. When the execution unit 700 includes an auxiliary contact monitoring component, the contact state between the moving contact 220 and the stationary contact 210 can be monitored.

[0123] It is understood that the execution unit 700 may include at least one of the exciter 710, the temperature monitoring component, and the auxiliary contact monitoring component. That is, the execution unit 700 may include only one of the exciter 710, the temperature monitoring component, and the auxiliary contact monitoring component, or it may include any two of the exciter 710, the temperature monitoring component, and the auxiliary contact monitoring component, or it may include the exciter 710, the temperature monitoring component, and the auxiliary contact monitoring component.

[0124] The following explanation uses execution unit 700 as an example, with actuator 710 as the trigger. Figure 1As shown, in one embodiment, the execution unit 700 includes two actuators 710, which are respectively located between the stationary parts 211 of the two sets of contact components 200.

[0125] like Figure 2 As shown, the exciter 710 is mounted on top of the ceramic cover 111 of the contact cavity 100, and at least a portion of the exciter 710 is located within the contact cavity 101, with the exciter 710 positioned on the side of the moving contact 220 facing away from the yoke plate 130. The exciter 710 is located on the side of the moving contact 220 facing the stationary member 211. The exciter 710 is configured to release an impactor into the contact cavity 101 in response to an excitation signal, the impactor being capable of driving the moving contact 220 to switch from a state of being connected to the contact portion 215 to a state of being disconnected from the contact portion 215.

[0126] In this embodiment, the relay is equipped with an exciter 710. When an excitation signal occurs, the exciter 710 is activated, thereby releasing an impactor into the contact chamber 101. The impactor can drive the moving contact 220 to switch from a state of being connected to the contact portion 215 to a state of being disconnected from the contact portion 215. In this way, the exciter 710 acts as a "fuse," enabling the relay to disconnect in a timely manner when an excitation signal occurs, which helps to improve the anti-sticking properties of the moving and stationary contacts and achieve rapid arc extinguishing.

[0127] In one embodiment, an excitation signal is generated when a threshold current passes through the moving contact 220.

[0128] As an example, the impactor can be a gaseous or solid substance. When the impactor is a gaseous substance, the exciter 710 can release gas into the contact chamber 101 in response to an excitation signal. The gas can impact the contact 220 to disconnect the relay. When the impactor is a solid substance, the exciter 710 can release an object into the contact chamber 101 in response to an excitation signal. This object can impact the contact 220 to disconnect the relay.

[0129] It should be noted that, regardless of whether the impactor is a gaseous or solid substance, the impactor can directly contact the moving contact 220 or indirectly contact the moving contact 220.

[0130] In one embodiment, when the impactor is a gaseous substance, the igniter 710 may include gunpowder. When the threshold current passes through the moving contact 220, the gunpowder is ignited and generates a large amount of gas, forming a gas impact force. This gas impact force can drive the moving contact 220 to move, thereby disconnecting the relay.

[0131] For example, the exciter 710 can be an electric detonator or an electric detonating tube, but is not limited thereto.

[0132] It should be added that the excitation signal can be determined by whether the current flowing through the moving contact 220 reaches a threshold. Specifically, when the current flowing through the moving contact 220 is greater than or equal to the threshold, the exciter 710 receives an excitation signal; when the current flowing through the moving contact 220 is less than the threshold, the exciter 710 does not receive an excitation signal.

[0133] As an example, the magnitude of the current passing through the moving contact 220 can be monitored by using a Hall effect sensor to monitor the magnetic field strength near the moving contact 220 and the stationary contact 210. Based on the correspondence between magnetic field strength and current value, the current value can be derived from the magnetic field strength.

[0134] Of course, the monitoring of threshold current is not limited to the Hall element mentioned above. For example, it can also be a device that directly monitors the current value passing through the moving contact 220 in the current loop.

[0135] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the exciter 710 is mounted on the outer wall of the ceramic cover 111 of the contact cavity 100 via an adapter 720. In other words, the adapter 720 is connected to the outer wall of the ceramic cover 111, and the exciter 710 is connected to the adapter 720.

[0136] In the embodiments of this application, the exciter 710 is mounted on the contact cavity 100 via an adapter 720, and is not directly connected to the contact cavity 100.

[0137] In one embodiment, the adapter 720 is made of a metallic material. The metallic material of the adapter 720 facilitates laser welding when the exciter 710 is connected to the contact cavity 100 via the adapter 720, ensuring both connection strength and the sealing of the contact cavity 100.

[0138] In another embodiment, the adapter 720 is made of a heat-insulating material. This prevents the heat generated by the reciprocating contact and separation of the moving contact 220 and the stationary contact 210 from being transferred to the exciter 710 through the contact cavity 100, thereby preventing the exciter 710 from being accidentally triggered.

[0139] As an example, the insulation material can be any of the following: plastic, wood, or ceramic.

[0140] like Figures 3 to 5As shown, the top of the ceramic cover 111 has a through hole 113, which communicates with the contact chamber 101. The adapter 720 includes an adapter sleeve 721 and a flange 722. One axial end of the adapter sleeve 721 is connected to the outer surface of the contact chamber 100, and the adapter sleeve 721 communicates with the through hole 113. The flange 722 is connected to the other axial end of the adapter sleeve 721 and protrudes from the outer peripheral side of the adapter sleeve 721. The exciter 710 includes a body 711 and an overlapping portion 712. The body 711 passes through the adapter sleeve 721 and the through hole 113, and the overlapping portion 712 is connected to the outer peripheral side of the body 711 and overlaps the flange 722.

[0141] In another embodiment, the adapter 720 may also consist of only an adapter sleeve 721, one axial end of which is connected to the top of the ceramic cover 111 and the other end is connected to the exciter 710.

[0142] In another embodiment, a flange 722 is provided at each of the two axial ends of the adapter sleeve 721, one flange 722 is connected to the top of the ceramic cover 111, and the other flange 722 is connected to the exciter 710.

[0143] It is understood that the adapter 720 and the ceramic cover 111, as well as the adapter 720 and the exciter 710, can be connected by welding, gluing, or other methods, and this application does not impose any special limitations on this.

[0144] Please return to the reference. Figure 2 Each stationary contact 210 also includes a conductive element 212. In the contact assembly 200, the conductive elements 212 of the two stationary contacts 210 are respectively connected to the stationary parts 211 of the two stationary contacts 210 and extend along the arrangement direction of the two stationary parts 210 and toward each other. The two conductive elements 212 have contact portions 215 at the positions where they are close to each other. The contact portions 215 of the two conductive elements 212 are used to contact or separate from the moving contact 220.

[0145] In one embodiment, the two conductive elements 212 extend in a direction that brings them closer to each other.

[0146] It should be noted that "the direction of mutual approach" refers to the overall tendency of the two conductive components 212 to approach each other, which may include, but is not limited to: the two conductive components 212 approaching each other along a straight line, the two conductive components 212 approaching each other along a curve, and a part of the two conductive components 212 approaching each other, etc.

[0147] In one embodiment, the conductive element 212 is flat, and one end of the two conductive elements 212 is connected to two stationary parts 211 respectively, and extends from the corresponding stationary part 211 along the first direction D1 and toward each other.

[0148] Please continue reading. Figure 2 The arc-extinguishing component 300 is located on the side of the stationary contact 210 facing the moving contact 220. In this embodiment of the application, the arc-extinguishing component 300 is located on the side of the stationary contact 210 facing the yoke plate 130.

[0149] In the relay of this application embodiment, the arc extinguishing component 300 is arranged on the side of the stationary contact 210 facing the moving contact 220, so as to make full use of the space on the side of the stationary contact 210 facing the moving contact 220, without occupying too much space of the relay along the arrangement direction of the two stationary contacts 210. This ensures the arc extinguishing effect of the arc extinguishing component 300, and avoids making the relay too large, which is conducive to the miniaturization design of the product.

[0150] like Figure 6 As shown, the arc-extinguishing assembly 300 includes an isolation seat 320 and at least one pair of arc-extinguishing grid assemblies 310. The isolation seat 320 is disposed within the contact chamber 101, for example, the isolation seat 320 is fixedly connected to the yoke plate 130, and the arc-extinguishing grid assemblies 310 are mounted on the isolation seat 320. The two paired arc-extinguishing grid assemblies 310 are respectively located on the side of the two stationary contacts 210 of the contact assembly 200 facing the yoke plate 130, and are used to extinguish the arc generated by the moving contact 220 and the two stationary contacts 210.

[0151] In the embodiments of this application, the two paired arc-extinguishing grid assemblies 310 are respectively located on the side of the stationary part 211 of the two stationary contacts 210 of the contact assembly 200 facing the yoke plate 130.

[0152] In one embodiment, the number of arc-extinguishing grid assemblies 310 is the same as the number of stationary contacts 210. For example, the number of both arc-extinguishing grid assemblies 310 and stationary contacts 210 is four, but this is not a limitation.

[0153] Of course, in other embodiments, when the number of static contacts 210 is four, the number of arc extinguishing grid components 310 included in the arc extinguishing assembly 300 can also be two. The two arc extinguishing grid components 310 are arranged along the first direction D1, and each arc extinguishing grid component 310 has a larger size along the third direction D3 so as to cover multiple moving contacts 220.

[0154] like Figure 2 As shown, the two paired arc-extinguishing grid assemblies 310 are located at both ends of the length direction (first direction D1) of the moving contact 220. The corresponding arc-extinguishing grid assembly 310 and the stationary part 211 of the stationary contact 210 have an overlapping portion on a target plane, and the target plane is perpendicular to the contact separation direction (second direction D2) of the moving contact 220 and the stationary contact 210.

[0155] In the embodiments of this application, in the contact separation direction of the moving contact 220 and the stationary contact 210, the arc extinguishing grid assembly 310 and the stationary component 211 have an overlapping portion, and the two paired arc extinguishing grid assemblies 310 are respectively located at both ends of the length direction of the moving contact 220, so that the arc extinguishing grid assembly 310 is as close as possible to the contact position of the moving contact 220 and the stationary contact 210, and when an electric arc is generated between the moving contact 220 and the stationary contact 210, the electric arc can enter the arc extinguishing grid assembly 310 with the shortest path, thereby accelerating the arc extinguishing speed.

[0156] In one embodiment, the conductive component 212 and the stationary component 211 are connected separately, for example by welding, riveting, interference fit, or other methods.

[0157] Of course, in other embodiments, the conductive element 212 and the stationary element 211 can also be integrally connected, that is, the stationary contact element 210 is a single piece.

[0158] In one embodiment, the conductive element 212 can be connected to the bottom of the stationary element 211 or to the side of the stationary element 211. Of course, the conductive element 212 can also be connected to both the bottom and the side of the stationary element 211 at the same time. This application does not limit this.

[0159] like Figure 2 As shown, the shortest distance between the exposed portions 211b of the two stationary contacts 210 of the contact assembly 200 is L1, and the shortest distance between the two paired arc-extinguishing grid assemblies 310 is L2, where L2≤L1.

[0160] In this embodiment of the application, since L2≤L1, the arc extinguishing grid assembly 310 is closer to the moving contact 220 to accelerate the arc extinguishing speed.

[0161] In one embodiment, the farthest distance between the insertion portions 211a of the two stationary components 211 is L4, where L4 > L2.

[0162] In this embodiment of the application, since L4 > L2, the arc extinguishing grid assembly 310 can be arranged below the insertion part 211a to improve the space utilization rate within the contact cavity 100, which is beneficial for product miniaturization design.

[0163] The conductive element 212 can be connected to the insertion part 211a.

[0164] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the arc extinguishing grid assembly 310 includes a mounting member 311 and a plurality of grid plates 312. The plurality of grid plates 312 are mounted on the mounting member 311 and arranged along the contact separation direction (second direction D2) between the moving contact member 220 and the stationary contact member 210. There is a gap between two adjacent grid plates 312.

[0165] like Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment, the mounting member 311 includes two oppositely arranged mounting plates 3111, and a plurality of grid plates 312 are mounted between the two mounting plates 3111.

[0166] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, in one embodiment, the mounting plate 3111 and the grid plate 312 have a locking hole 313 on one of them and a locking part 314 on the other, the locking part 314 being engaged into the locking hole 313.

[0167] For example, the mounting plate 3111 has a snap-fit ​​hole 313 and the grid plate 312 has a snap-fit ​​portion 314; or, the mounting plate 3111 has a snap-fit ​​portion 314 and the grid plate 312 has a snap-fit ​​hole 313.

[0168] It should be noted that the connection between the grid plate 312 and the mounting component 311 is not limited to a snap-fit ​​method. For example, multiple slots can be provided on the mounting component 311, and the grid plate 312 can be inserted into the slots.

[0169] like Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the similarities between the relay of the second embodiment of this application and the relay of the first embodiment described above will not be repeated, but the differences are as follows:

[0170] The conductive element 212 of the stationary contact 210 includes a first arc-guiding portion 214 arranged at an angle relative to the moving contact 220. The first arc-guiding portion 214 extends toward the moving contact 220 and is configured to guide the flow of the electric arc generated during the contact separation process between the moving contact 220 and the stationary contact 210 to flow toward the arc-extinguishing assembly 300.

[0171] In this embodiment, by providing a first arc-guiding portion 214, the electric arc generated between the moving contact 220 and the stationary contact 210 can flow along the extension direction of the first arc-guiding portion 214, thereby lengthening the arc, shortening the arc extinguishing time, preventing the arc from burning the moving and stationary contacts for a long time, and improving the electrical durability of the moving and stationary contacts. Furthermore, with the help of the first arc-guiding portion 214, the arc can be transferred from the contact surface of the moving and stationary contacts to the end of the first arc-guiding portion 214, thereby reducing the wear of the contact surface of the moving and stationary contacts, reducing the occurrence of arc spikes, and ensuring the electrical clearance and withstand voltage breakdown capability between the moving and stationary contacts.

[0172] Among them, the phenomenon of sharpening refers to the phenomenon that, under long-term operation or high load, the contact surface develops sharp protrusions or deformations due to current, electric arc or mechanical wear.

[0173] The first guide arc portion 214 can extend along a straight line or along a curve, and this application does not limit it in this regard.

[0174] The conductive component 212 also includes a connecting portion 213, which is connected to the stationary component 211. One end of the first arc-shaped portion 214 is connected to the connecting portion 213, and the other end of the first arc-shaped portion 214 is connected to the contact portion 215. The moving contact component 220 is used to contact or separate from the contact portion 215. The first arc-shaped portion 214 extends from the connecting portion 213 toward the center line of the push rod component 600 and the yoke plate 130.

[0175] As can be seen from the present application embodiment, the conductive member 212 has an inclined first arc-guiding portion 214, and the first arc-guiding portion 214 extends from the connecting portion 213 toward the direction close to the moving contact member 220. At the same time, the end of the conductive member 212 away from the stationary member 211 has a contact portion 215. The arrangement of the conductive member 211 can not only ensure the distance between the two stationary members 211 to provide a sufficiently long electrical distance and arrange other components, but also the first arc-guiding portion 214 of the conductive member 211 can guide the arc so that the arc flows to the arc-extinguishing assembly 300 in time. At the same time, the conductive member 212 has reserved space on the side facing the moving contact member 220, which can be used to arrange other components, improving the space utilization of the relay and facilitating the miniaturization design of the product.

[0176] like Figure 10 As shown, the contact assembly 200 also includes a second arc guide portion 230, which is connected to the moving contact member 220 and is arranged at an angle relative to the moving contact member 220. The second arc guide portion 230 is configured to guide the arc flow to the arc extinguishing grid assembly 310.

[0177] In this embodiment, by providing a second arc-guiding portion 230, the electric arc generated between the moving contact 220 and the stationary contact 210 can flow along the extension direction of the second arc-guiding portion 230, thereby lengthening the arc, shortening the arc extinguishing time, preventing the arc from burning the moving and stationary contacts for a long time, and improving the electrical durability of the moving and stationary contacts. Furthermore, with the help of the second arc-guiding portion 230, the arc can be transferred from the contact surface of the moving and stationary contacts to the end of the second arc-guiding portion 230, thereby reducing the wear on the contact surface of the moving and stationary contacts, reducing the occurrence of arc spikes, and ensuring the electrical clearance and withstand voltage breakdown capability between the moving and stationary contacts.

[0178] like Figure 10 As shown, the stationary contact 210 has a receiving space 102 on the side facing the moving contact 220, and the second arc guide portion 230 automatically contacts the 220, extending obliquely towards the receiving space 102 and away from the stationary contact 210. In this embodiment, the receiving space 102 is used to arrange the arc extinguishing grid assembly 310.

[0179] In one embodiment, the second guide arc portion 230 is integrally connected with the moving contact member 220.

[0180] Of course, in other embodiments, the second guide arc portion 230 and the moving contact member 220 can also be connected separately, for example by riveting, welding, interference fit, etc.

[0181] like Figure 10 As shown, the automatic contact member 220 of the second arc guide portion 230 extends in a direction away from the center line of the push rod member 600 and close to the yoke plate 130. One end of the second arc guide portion 230 is connected to the moving contact member 220, and the other end of the second arc guide portion 230 is close to the end of the arc extinguishing grid assembly 310 near the yoke plate 130.

[0182] As an example, there may be two second arc guide portions 230, which are respectively connected to the two ends of the moving contact member 220 in the length direction, and both the second arc guide portions 230 and the moving contact member 220 are located between a pair of arc extinguishing grid assemblies 310.

[0183] like Figure 10 As shown, the tilt direction of the first guide arc portion 214 is arranged at an angle to the tilt direction of the second guide arc portion 230. This angle can be an acute angle or an obtuse angle.

[0184] In the embodiments of this application, the first arc guiding portion 214 and the second arc guiding portion 230 form a flared structure, which helps to confine the arc between the first arc guiding portion 214 and the second arc guiding portion 230, thereby accelerating the arc flow to the arc extinguishing component 300 and shortening the arc extinguishing time.

[0185] like Figure 12 As shown, the similarities between the relay of the third embodiment and the relay of the second embodiment will not be repeated here, but the differences are as follows:

[0186] The conductive element 212 includes a first segment 2121 and a second segment 2122 that are vertically connected. The first segment 2121 is connected to the stationary component 211, and the end of the second segment 2122 away from the first segment 2121 has a contact portion 215.

[0187] The exciter 210 is connected to the inner wall of the contact cavity 100. For example, the exciter 210 is connected to the inner wall of the contact cavity 100 via an adapter 720.

[0188] In summary, the relays of the embodiments of this application have at least the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0189] In the relay of this application embodiment, since L5 > L3, sufficient space is reserved between the two insertion parts 211a. The execution unit 700 can be installed between the insertion parts 211a of the two stationary parts 211 to make full use of the space between the two insertion parts 211a. Adding the execution unit 700 will not increase the size of the relay too much, which is beneficial to the miniaturization design of the product.

[0190] Furthermore, since L3 ≤ L1, while ensuring that the distance between the contact portions 215 of the two stationary contacts 210 remains unchanged, the distance between the exposed portions 211b of the two stationary contacts 210 can be increased as much as possible. In this way, while ensuring electrical distance, the execution unit 700 can be arranged in the space between the two stationary components 211. In addition, since the distance between the two exposed portions 211b is large, the execution unit 700 can be arranged on the outer surface of the contact cavity 100 and located between the two exposed portions 211b, without occupying the space inside the contact cavity 100.

[0191] Furthermore, the relay is equipped with an exciter 710. When an excitation signal is received, the exciter 710 is activated, thereby releasing an impactor into the contact chamber 101. The impactor drives the moving contact 220 to switch from a state of being connected to the contact portion 215 to a state of being disconnected from the contact portion 215. In this way, the exciter 710 acts as a "fuse," enabling the relay to disconnect promptly when an excitation signal is received, which helps to improve the anti-sticking properties of the moving and stationary contacts and achieve rapid arc extinguishing.

[0192] Furthermore, the adapter 720 is made of heat-insulating material, which can prevent the heat generated by the reciprocating contact and separation of the moving contact 220 and the stationary contact 210 from being transferred to the exciter 710 through the contact cavity 100, thereby preventing the exciter 710 from being accidentally triggered.

[0193] Furthermore, the adapter 720 is made of metal material. When the exciter 710 is connected to the contact cavity 100 through the adapter 720, it is convenient to use laser welding process for connection, which ensures both connection strength and the sealing of the contact cavity 100.

[0194] Furthermore, the arc-extinguishing component 300 is arranged on the side of the stationary contact 210 facing the moving contact 220, so as to make full use of the space on the side of the stationary contact 210 facing the moving contact 220, without occupying too much space of the relay along the arrangement direction of the two stationary contacts 210. This ensures the arc-extinguishing effect of the arc-extinguishing component 300, while avoiding making the relay too large, which is conducive to the miniaturization design of the product.

[0195] Furthermore, in the contact separation direction of the moving contact 220 and the stationary contact 210, the arc-extinguishing grid assembly 310 overlaps with the stationary contact 210, and the two paired arc-extinguishing grid assemblies 310 are located at both ends of the length direction of the moving contact 220, so that the arc-extinguishing grid assembly 310 is as close as possible to the contact position of the moving contact 220 and the stationary contact 210. Thus, when an electric arc is generated between the moving contact 220 and the stationary contact 210, the electric arc can enter the arc-extinguishing grid assembly 310 with the shortest path, thereby accelerating the arc extinguishing speed.

[0196] Furthermore, the shortest distance between the stationary parts 211 of the two stationary contacts 210 of the contact assembly 200 is L1, and the shortest distance between the two paired arc-extinguishing grid assemblies 310 is L2. Since L2≤L1, the arc-extinguishing grid assembly 310 is closer to the moving contact 220 to accelerate the arc extinguishing speed.

[0197] Furthermore, by providing the first arc-guiding portion 214, the electric arc generated between the moving contact 220 and the stationary contact 210 can flow along the extension direction of the first arc-guiding portion 214, thereby lengthening the arc, shortening the arc extinguishing time, preventing the arc from burning the moving and stationary contacts for a long time, and improving the electrical durability of the moving and stationary contacts. In addition, with the help of the first arc-guiding portion 214, the arc can be transferred from the contact surface of the moving and stationary contacts to the end of the first arc-guiding portion 214, thereby reducing the loss of the contact surface of the moving and stationary contacts, reducing the occurrence of arc spikes, and ensuring the electrical clearance and withstand voltage breakdown capability between the moving and stationary contacts.

[0198] Furthermore, by providing the second arc-guiding portion 230, the electric arc generated between the moving contact 220 and the stationary contact 210 can flow along the extension direction of the second arc-guiding portion 230, thereby lengthening the arc, shortening the arc extinguishing time, preventing the arc from burning the moving and stationary contacts for a long time, and improving the electrical durability of the moving and stationary contacts. In addition, with the help of the second arc-guiding portion 230, the arc can be transferred from the contact surface of the moving and stationary contacts to the end of the second arc-guiding portion 230, thereby reducing the loss of the contact surface of the moving and stationary contacts, reducing the occurrence of arc spikes, and ensuring the electrical clearance and withstand voltage breakdown capability between the moving and stationary contacts.

[0199] Furthermore, the first arc-guiding portion 214 and the second arc-guiding portion 230 form a flared structure, which helps to confine the arc between the first arc-guiding portion 214 and the second arc-guiding portion 230, thereby accelerating the arc flow to the arc-extinguishing assembly 300 and shortening the arc-extinguishing time.
