Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of relay technology, specifically to a relay terminal interface structure. Background Technology
[0002] A relay, also known as an electric relay, is an electronic control device that has a control system (also known as an input circuit) and a controlled system (also known as an output circuit). It is usually used in automatic control circuits. In fact, it is an "automatic switch" that uses a small current to control a larger current. Therefore, it plays a role in automatic adjustment, safety protection, and circuit switching in the circuit.
[0003] Relay terminals on the market often use welding and twist bolt connections to fix the relay to the base. This requires workers to use additional tools for disassembly and installation, which affects the disassembly speed and makes the device inconvenient to disassemble and install. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a relay terminal interface structure to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a relay terminal interface structure, including a base, with multiple sets of spring sheet supports in the middle of the base, and elastic contact sheets sleeved on the spring sheet supports. The elastic contact sheets are made of elastic metal material, and the elastic contact sheets on both sides generate contact pressure through elastic deformation.
[0006] Furthermore, each set of elastic contact pieces corresponds to a circuit channel, and each set of elastic contact pieces is connected to a circuit channel with corresponding wiring terminals.
[0007] Furthermore, the base is bolted to a housing in the middle, and the main body of the housing is made of flame-retardant engineering plastic.
[0008] Furthermore, positioning ribs are fixedly installed at both ends of the housing, and the positioning ribs at both ends are arranged in an asymmetrical structure.
[0009] Furthermore, the housing has several slots in the middle, and the slots are positioned corresponding to the spring clip brackets.
[0010] Furthermore, a relay body is inserted into the housing, and the relay body has anti-foolproof grooves at both ends that cooperate with the positioning protrusions at the corresponding positions.
[0011] Furthermore, a coil is provided inside the relay body, and an armature is provided outside the coil.
[0012] Furthermore, the relay body has pins connected to its bottom, and the pins cooperate with the insertion cavity formed by bending the end of the elastic contact piece.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] 1. In use, the connection between the relay body and the base no longer relies on welding or twisting bolts. Instead, the bottom pin of the relay body is inserted into the insertion cavity formed by bending the end of the elastic contact piece on the spring support. Stable contact pressure is provided by material deformation, which not only facilitates disassembly and assembly but also ensures a tight connection between the pin and the elastic contact piece.
[0015] 2. When using this utility model, the positioning ribs with an asymmetrical structure are set at both ends of the housing. The correct insertion direction is ensured by the forced alignment of the anti-fooling grooves at both ends of the relay body with the positioning ribs. If the user tries to insert in the opposite direction, the anti-fooling structure will prevent complete insertion due to physical interference, so that the pins and the elastic contact pieces are strictly aligned, avoiding misalignment of the slot or poor contact caused by misalignment.

[0021] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, a relay terminal interface structure includes a base (1), a plurality of spring support brackets (2) are provided in the middle of the base (1), and elastic contact pieces (3) are sleeved on the spring support brackets (2). The elastic contact pieces (3) are made of elastic metal material, and the elastic contact pieces (3) on both sides generate contact pressure through elastic deformation. Each set of elastic contact pieces (3) corresponds to a circuit channel, and each set of elastic contact pieces (3) is connected to a circuit channel with a corresponding terminal block (4). A housing (5) is bolted in the middle of the base (1), and the main body of the housing (5) is flame-retardant engineering plastic. Positioning ribs (6) are fixedly installed at both ends of the housing (5), and the positioning ribs (6) at both ends are arranged in an asymmetrical structure. Several slots (7) are opened in the middle of the housing (5), and the slots (7) are arranged corresponding to the positions of the spring support brackets (2).
[0022] The specific operation is as follows: The connection between the relay body (8) and the base (1) no longer relies on welding or twisting bolts. Instead, the bottom pin (12) of the relay body (8) is inserted into the insertion cavity formed by bending the end of the elastic contact piece (3) on the spring support (2). Stable contact pressure is provided by material deformation. On the basis of easy disassembly and assembly, the tight connection between the pin (12) and the elastic contact piece (3) is also ensured.
[0023] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a relay body (8) is inserted into the housing (5), and the relay body (8) has anti-foolproof grooves (9) at both ends that cooperate with the positioning protrusions (6) at the corresponding positions. A coil (10) is provided inside the relay body (8), and an armature (11) is provided outside the coil (10). A pin (12) is connected to the bottom of the relay body (8), and the pin (12) cooperates with the insertion cavity formed by bending the end of the elastic contact piece (3).
[0024] The specific operation is as follows: by setting a positioning rib (6) with an asymmetrical structure at both ends of the housing (5), the correct insertion direction is ensured by the forced alignment of the anti-fooling groove (9) at both ends of the relay body (8) with the positioning rib (6). If the user tries to insert in the opposite direction, the anti-fooling structure will prevent complete insertion due to physical interference, so that the pin (12) and the elastic contact piece (3) are strictly aligned, avoiding misalignment of the slot (7) or poor contact.
[0025] Working principle: The connection between the relay body (8) and the base (1) no longer relies on welding or twisting bolts. Instead, the pin (12) at the bottom of the relay body (8) is inserted into the insertion cavity formed by bending the end of the elastic contact piece (3) on the spring support (2). Stable contact pressure is provided by material deformation. In addition to facilitating disassembly and assembly, it also ensures a tight connection between the pin (12) and the elastic contact piece (3). By setting a positioning rib (6) with an asymmetrical structure at both ends of the housing (5), the correct insertion direction is ensured by the forced alignment of the anti-fooling groove (9) at both ends of the relay body (8) with the positioning rib (6). If the user tries to insert in the opposite direction, the anti-fooling structure will prevent complete insertion due to physical interference, so that the pin (12) and the elastic contact piece (3) are strictly aligned, avoiding misalignment of the slot (7) or poor contact caused by misalignment.
