The link member is capable of pressing the contact piece. The link member includes a first pressing portion and a second pressing portion. The first pressing portion is configured to press the first divided piece, and extends in a widthwise direction of the contact piece. The second pressing portion is configured to press the second divided piece, and extends in a lengthwise direction.

A movable contact of a contact device includes a first contact unit and a second contact unit that come into contact with outer surfaces of fixed terminals and a connecting portion connecting the first contact unit and the second contact unit. Here, the first contact unit separates from the outer surface by moving in a direction that is different from a moving direction of a moving body and that intersects an extending direction of a portion that makes contact with the first contact unit of the outer surface. Also, the second contact unit separates from the outer surface by moving in a direction that is different from the moving direction of the moving body and that intersects an extending direction of a portion that makes contact with the second contact unit of the outer surface.

A contact piece unit includes a terminal, a contact piece, and a contact. The contact piece is connected with the terminal, and disposed at a position facing the terminal. The contact is attached to the contact piece. The terminal includes a connection portion, a body, and a narrow portion. The connection portion is connected with the contact piece. The body extends in a lengthwise direction of the contact piece from the connection portion. The narrow portion has a width smaller than a width of the body and smaller than a width of the contact piece.

A contact module includes a pair of contact devices, each of which includes a fixed terminal and a moving contactor. The moving contactor moves from a closed position where the moving contact is in contact with the fixed contact to an open position where the moving contact is out of contact with the fixed contact, and vice versa. One moving contactor generates, when energized, a magnetic field that applies force to the other moving contactor in a direction from the open position of the other moving contactor toward the closed position of the other moving contactor. The other moving contactor generates, when energized, a magnetic field that applies force to the one moving contactor in a direction from the open position of the one moving contactor toward the closed position of the one moving contactor.

A relay for a high voltage circuit comprises a main coil and a first armature, wherein the first armature is located in the high voltage circuit and is correspondingly in a position to open and close the high voltage circuit in response to power down and power up of the main coil; a secondary coil that cooperates with the first armature and a driving circuit that supplies power to the secondary coil, wherein the driving circuit is powered by a high voltage supply of the high voltage circuit, the secondary coil is powered up to generate additional electromagnetic force that places the first armature in the closed position when the driving circuit is closed; and a second armature located in the driving circuit, and is correspondingly in a position to open or close the driving circuit in response to power down and power up of the main coil.

An electromagnetic relay includes: an excitation coil; a movable core; a movable contactor that operates by following the movable core; a fixed contactor that is in contact with the movable contactor when the excitation coil is energized; a base that supports the fixed contactor; a fixed yoke fixed to the base; a moving yoke; a first pressing spring that biases the moving yoke toward the movable contactor; and a second pressing spring that biases the movable contactor such that the movable contactor and the fixed contactor are in contact with each other. The moving yoke is disposed to be in contact with a surface of the movable contactor opposite from the fixed contactor and to oppose the fixed yoke through the movable contactor. The moving yoke is provided to be able to contact and separate from the movable contactor.

A high voltage relay resistant to instantaneous high-current impact is disclosed, and includes an electromagnet system, a control system, a contact system, and a base support. In the present solution, an electromagnetic force generated by the contact system is used to resolve a problem of contact separation caused by an electric repulsion force generated by an instantaneous high-current.
