Abstract:
An electronic relay comprising:a magnet system comprisinga coil assembly comprising a coil body and a winding, the coil body comprising an axial recess defining a coil axis extending between a first end and a second end;an L-shaped core comprising a longitudinal leg that forms a first end of the core and that extends through the axial recess of the coil body with the first end of the core extending past the first end of the coil body, the L-shaped core further comprising a transverse leg that forms a second end of the core and that extends perpendicular to the longitudinal leg outside of the second end of the coil body; andan L-shaped armature comprising a transverse leg forming first end of the armature that is seated at the first end of the core, the L-shaped armature comprising a longitudinal leg that extends outside of the coil and parallel to the coil axis and that forms a second end forming a working air gap relative to the second end of the core;the relay further comprisingan insulating base body connected to the coil assembly opposite the longitudinal leg of armature, the base body being connected to at least one stationary contact element and at least one contact spring comprising a movable contact element, the stationary and movable contact elements are respectively connected to terminal elements, the base body further comprises a substantially flat base arranged parallel to the axial recess of the coil body, the at least one contact spring extends between the coil and the base and parallel to the coil axis, the terminal elements extend outward through the base and perpendicular the coil axis, the base body further comprising a plurality of upward projections;a slide that transmits the armature motion onto the at least one contact spring; andat least one lateral fastening continuation connecting the magnet system to the upward projections of the base.
