Abstract (en)

[origin: JPH02165535A] PURPOSE: To prevent a probable risk that worn out fine particles of an operational element drop on a contactor by arranging the contactor and the functional point of the operational element for a contact spring in mutually shifted positions. CONSTITUTION: This electromagnetic relay comprises a group contacts which are fixed in the inside of a base body 1, provided with corresponding contact elements 8, 9 and a movable contact spring 10, and comprise contact legs having contactors 8a, 8a, 17a and extended at right angles to the bottom face and the relay further comprises an operational element 7 to transmit movement of a movable piece to the contact spring 10. The contactor 17a and the functional point of the operational element 7 are arranged while being shifted from each other. Consequently, the operational element 7 affects the contactor 17a at a position transversely shifted from the contactor 17a and the functional point does not come above the contactor 17a. As a result, fine particles produced by wear of the operational element 7 drop while passing the sides of the contactor 17a and thus the contactor 17a is prevented from being directly polluted by the fine particles.
