Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
177 words
A relay for printed circuit boards with dual-in-line terminal configuration comprising: a coil former, a magnet yoke having two parallel legs and attached to said coil former, two biased leaf spring attached to said coil former, a U-shaped armature having two parallel legs and movably mounted between said leaf springs and said yoke, a slider attached to said armature for transmitting armature motion to a plurality of contacts including four change-over contacts arranged side by side adjacent said coil former, wherein the legs of the armature overlap the corresponding legs of the magnet yoke by at least half their length, a first end of each of said biased leaf springs is connected to a respective one of the two legs of the armature the other end of each of said leaf springs is connected to the coil former so that each of said leaf springs extends essentially parallel to said respective armature leg, and that the length of each leaf spring is at least equal to the length of the leg of the respective armature connected thereto.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim

A relay for printed circuit boards with dual-in-line terminal configuration comprising: a coil former, a magnet yoke having two parallel legs and attached to said coil former, two biased leaf spring attached to said coil former, a U-shaped armature having two parallel legs and movably mounted between said leaf springs and said yoke, a slider attached to said armature for transmitting armature motion to a plurality of contacts including four change-over contacts arranged side by side adjacent said coil former, wherein the legs of the armature overlap the corresponding legs of the magnet yoke by at least half their length, a first end of each of said biased leaf springs is connected to a respective one of the two legs of the armature the other end of each of said leaf springs is connected to the coil former so that each of said leaf springs extends essentially parallel to said respective armature leg, and that the length of each leaf spring is at least equal to the length of the leg of the respective armature connected thereto.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
45 words
A relay according to claim 1, wherein said first end of each of said leaf springs is connected to the armature in a form-locking manner, and that said other end of each of said springs is connected to the coil former in a force-locking manner.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
22 words
A relay according to claim 2, further comprising a crosspiece connecting the two leaf springs to form a one-piece H-shaped spring assembly.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
55 words
A relay according to claim 1, said slider further including resilient arms having chamferings and recesses facing each other, and said armature having a projection with recesses for receipt of said arms of said slider said arms engagable onto the projection of the armature to produce an acting connection between said armature and said slider.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
45 words
A relay according to claim 1, wherein said first end of each of said leaf springs is connected to the armature in a form-locking manner, and that said other end of each of said springs is connected to the coil former in a form-locking manner.
