Patent ID: 8040211

Claim:
A coil unit of an electromagnetic contactor comprising: two sets of single coil units, each including an operating electromagnet; and a coil including a conductor wire wound around a flanged bobbin mounted on a leg of a stationary core of the operating electromagnet, wherein into one flange of the bobbin are press fitted a pair of terminal metal pieces respectively corresponding to an initial side conductor wire and a final side conductor wire of the coil, and each of the terminal metal pieces is formed with a press fitting base for making the terminal metal piece press fitted into the one flange, a coil connecting arm around which the conductor wire of corresponding side of the coil is wound and a tab terminal made to have a plug-in connection with a corresponding connector of an extension lead; wherein the two sets of single coil units are arranged side by side to be coupled with each other, the tab terminal of the terminal metal piece corresponding to the final side conductor wire of the coil in the one single coil unit is made to have a plug-in connection with a connector at the one end of an extension lead for series connection and the tab terminal of the terminal metal piece corresponding to the final side conductor wire of the coil in the other single coil unit is made to have a plug-in connection with a connector at the other end of the extension lead for series connection, and the tab terminal of the terminal metal piece corresponding to the initial side conductor wire of the coil in each of the single coil units is made to have a plug-in connection with a connector of an extension lead for external connection, by which a double coil unit is formed.
