Abstract (en)

[origin: US5894254A] A relay is formed by a magnet system containing a wound coil body, an L-shaped core arranged axially therein, an L-shaped armature and a base element with terminal elements. Stationary and moving contact elements are arranged between the base element and the magnet system. The armature is mounted with the free end of its transverse leg at the free end of the longitudinal leg of the core. The armature is secured through a U-shaped armature spring wrapping around the armature. The spring is secured with one arm at the longitudinal leg of the armature and a second arm is inserted in a recess between the coil body and the core. The actuation of the moving contact elements is provided via a slide coupled to the armature. This slide is hooked to the armature by spring tabs of the armature spring at opposing sides of the armature through snap latches formed at the ends of the side arms of the slide.
