An electromagnetic relay includes an exciting coil, a pair of fixed contacts, a movable spring, a magnet, and a yoke in contact with the magnet. The pair of fixed contacts is arranged along a first direction. The movable spring comes into contact with or moves away from the fixed contacts in response to the turn on or off of current to the exciting coil. The magnet prolongs the arc generated between the fixed contacts and the movable spring. The magnet is adjacent to the fixed contacts along a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, and is adjacent to the exciting coil along a third direction orthogonal to the first direction and the second direction. The yoke is adjacent to the fixed contacts along the third direction in a state where the yoke is in contact with the magnet.

An electromagnetic relay has a contact device and an electromagnet device. An electromagnetic relay has stators which are a pair of rod-like members, and a mover. The mover may face the side of the stator. A housing supports the stator and accommodates the mover. A yoke is fixed to the housing so as to face the movable facing surface and contains a soft magnetic material.

A contactor includes two static contacts and a movable contact. Two ends of the movable contact selectively electrically contact the two static contacts, respectively. The contactor further includes a rotatable member rotatable about a central axis, with the movable contact being mounted thereon. The rotatable member is rotatably mounted on a support plate. Two ceramic members are mounted on the support plate, with each defining an internal region. Two permanent magnets are mounted on the support plate and located outside of the two ceramic members, respectively. The two ends of the movable contact are located in respective internal regions of the two ceramic members, such that an electrical arc generated between the movable contact and the static contact is located within the internal region.

A fluid connector for coolant includes a chamfered lip and a fir tree circumferentially aligned with at least one O-ring on an outer body of the fluid connector. The fluid connector is configured to receive an end piece. The end piece has a standard SAEJ2044 end form. The fluid connector utilizes a housing to form a ribbing and support a seal. An integrated inverter assembly includes a main cover and an opposing back cover; a coolant channel disposed between a coolant channel cover and a coolant channel separating body; wherein power electronics of the integrated inverter assembly are thermally coupled to the coolant channel; wherein at least one of a coolant inlet or a coolant outlet of the coolant channel comprises a fluid connector; and wherein the fluid connector comprises a chamfered lip on an end of the fluid connector.

An inverter assembly includes an integrated coolant coupling port; a fluid connector having a chamfered lip and a fir tree circumferentially aligned with at least one O-ring on an outer body of the fluid connector; and a flexible hose configured to couple the integrated coolant coupling port to the fluid connector.

A relay includes a first fixed contact, a second fixed contact, a movable contact piece having first and second movable contacts, a contact piece holding unit configured to hold the movable contact piece, and first to fourth magnets. The first magnet and the second magnet are disposed so that same poles thereof face each other. The movable contact piece is disposed between the first magnet and the second magnet in a width direction of the movable contact piece. The third magnet is disposed so as to increase a magnetic flux in a longitudinal direction of the movable contact piece at a position between the first fixed contact and the first movable contact. The fourth magnet is disposed so as to increase a magnetic flux in the longitudinal direction of the movable contact piece at a position between the second fixed contact and the second movable contact.

An electromagnetic relay includes a fixed contact holder, a moving contact holder, an electromagnetic device, and a magnet. The fixed contact holder extends in a predetermined direction and is provided with a fixed contact. The moving contact holder also extends in the predetermined direction, and is provided with a moving contact. The magnet is arranged perpendicularly to an opening/closing direction of the fixed contact and the moving contact. A stretch space in which an arc generated between the fixed contact and the moving contact is stretched is provided, in the predetermined direction, beyond respective tips of the fixed contact holder and the moving contact holder. The stretch space also faces a surface of the fixed contact holder and a surface of the moving contact holder.

A contactor includes a housing holding fixed contacts and a movable contact and an arc suppressor in the housing having magnet assemblies. The first magnet assembly includes first and second magnets aligned with the first and second contacts and the second magnet assembly includes third and fourth magnets aligned with the first and second contacts. The first and second magnets are arranged in the cavity such that north B-fields of the first and second magnets face in opposite directions.
