Claim 1
Independent Claim
296 words
A remotely controllable relay comprising an electromagnet means having a coil arranged for feeding thereto an energizing current in opposite directions and a movable member coupled to a core reciprocatingly movable along the axial directions of said coil, said movable member being a movable projection integral with said movable core for forward and backward motion therewith on one side of said electromagnet means in said axial direction of said coil; a rocker, pivotally supported to a coil frame of said electromagnetic means and pivotally connected to said moveable projection of said moveable core at one end portion remote from said pivotally, supported position, linked to said movable member to be rocked forward and backward in response to said reciprocating movement of said core; a movable contactor electrically connected to a load and linked to said rocker for following said rocking of said rocker, and a fixed contactor electrically connected to said load, said rocker, movable, and fixed contactors being disposed on one side of the electromagnet means, said movable contactor following the rocking of the rocker; an auxiliary contact means actuable with said rocking of said rocker for cutting said current fed to said electromagnetic means, said rocker forming part of a switching-contact operator means which includes a small holding chamber provided on one side of said rocker opposite to said coil frame, said chamber including an opening for passing therethrough said movable contactor, and a biasing spring disposed in said chamber for providing to said movable contactor a contacting pressure with respect to said fixed contactor and said movable member being shifted in one of said axial direction of the coil in reponse to said current feeding direction to said electromagnet means to turn ON and OFF as associated power source circuit for said load.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
296 words
A remotely controllable relay comprising an electromagnet means having a coil arranged for feeding thereto an energizing current in opposite directions and a movable member coupled to a core reciprocatingly movable along the axial directions of said coil, said movable member being a movable projection integral with said movable core for forward and backward motion therewith on one side of said electromagnet means in said axial direction of said coil; a rocker, pivotally supported to a coil frame of said electromagnetic means and pivotally connected to said moveable projection of said moveable core at one end portion remote from said pivotally, supported position, linked to said movable member to be rocked forward and backward in response to said reciprocating movement of said core; a movable contactor electrically connected to a load and linked to said rocker for following said rocking of said rocker, and a fixed contactor electrically connected to said load, said rocker, movable, and fixed contactors being disposed on one side of the electromagnet means, said movable contactor following the rocking of the rocker; an auxiliary contact means actuable with said rocking of said rocker for cutting said current fed to said electromagnetic means, said rocker forming part of a switching-contact operator means which includes a small holding chamber provided on one side of said rocker opposite to said coil frame, said chamber including an opening for passing therethrough said movable contactor, and a biasing spring disposed in said chamber for providing to said movable contactor a contacting pressure with respect to said fixed contactor and said movable member being shifted in one of said axial direction of the coil in reponse to said current feeding direction to said electromagnet means to turn ON and OFF as associated power source circuit for said load.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
69 words
A relay according to claim 1, which further comprises a casing defining therein a larger compartment for housing said electromagnet means and a smaller compartment housing said switching-contact operating means and main switching contact means, said casing having a projection for supporting said movable contactor operated to separate from said fixed contactor at a position diviated toward the fixed contactor from a completely separated position following said movable projection.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
37 words
A relay according to claim 2, wherein said auxiliary contact means is disposed in said larger compartment with said electromagnet means to be operated by said rocker rocked for cutting said current fed to said electromagnet means.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
62 words
A relay according to claim 2, which further comprises a switch provided in said casing on the side opposite to said smaller compartment for detecting the operating state of said main switching contact means, said switch being actuatable through a pushing projection integrally provided to said movable core opposite to said movable projection in response to said reciprocating movement of the core.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
44 words
A relay according to claim 1, wherein said fixed contactor is provided to be partly opposed to a limited, opposed part of said movable contactor, and said opposing parts of said fixed and movable contactors form respectively a means for electromagnetically attracting each other.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
49 words
A relay according to claim 1, which further comprises at least an associated relay comprising only components forming said switching-contact operating means and main switching contact means, a rocker in said operating means of said associated relay being interlocked to said rocker of said relay for simultaneous rocking therewith.
