Abstract:
Apparatus and method for latching one pole contact of at least one springy pole in one of a relay and an hybrid switch for maintaining one of engaging and disengaging state of at least one first contact with said pole contact by a mechanical latching device comprising a springy lock pin exerting minute force, a slider with indentation path for guiding the lock pin and a track for the slider, the latching device extends from an armature or the springy pole to a base or a body of the relay or the hybrid switch, said springy pole is guided by said slider movement propelled by one of a pull by a voltage rated magnetic coil fed by a pulse of said rated voltage and a push by a plunger, and for operating a stronger coil for switching higher electrical current the magnetic coil is fed with combination with at least one discharge higher voltage to increase the magnetic pull power of the coil.

Claim (Index 19):
A method for latching at least one of a single throw and dual throw pole contact of at least one springy pole included in one of a relay and an hybrid switch for maintaining one of engaging and disengaging state of at least one first contact with said springy pole contact, said springy pole is actuated by a bar with an indentation path for guiding a springy lock pin movements from one of release and partial release position to a maximum slid position by a short push of said bar and reversing the movements by the springy pressure of said springy pole from said maximum slid to one of said partial and full release position when said push is stopped;\n said short push via one of a plunger and an armature attracted by a magnetic coil fed with a short duration rated voltage pulse for exerting a pull force commensurate with applied forces needed to push said bar to said maximum slid position via a track extended to one of a base and a body of said one of a relay and hybrid switch, said method comprising the steps of: a. pushing said bar by exerting a push force through one of a manual push of said plunger and a feed of said short duration rated voltage pulse to said coil for generating a pull force commensurate with said forces for said attracted armature for sliding said bar to said maximum slid position with said lock pin passing said latch position; b. stopping said push for enabling the springy pole to propel the bar in reverse direction of a partial release movement for guiding the springy lock pin into said latch position of said bar and maintain said at least one of said engage and disengage of at least one first contact with said springy pole contact throughout all movements between said latching position and said maximum slid position; c. re-pushing said bar by exerting a push force through one of said feed and said manual push by one of a finger and a mechanical element respectively for sliding said bar to said maximum slid position directing said lock pin to a release area guided by structured ridges included in the indentation path; and d. stopping said push for reversing the state of and said engagement by said springy pole contact and propel the bar in reverse direction all the way guiding the lock pin into full release area, awaiting a fresh said pushing.
