Systems, devices, and methods for an electrical switch including: an enclosure; a hinged armature disposed within the enclosure; a moveable contact electrically coupled to the hinged armature and disposed substantially parallel to the hinged armature; and a rib positioned between the hinged armature and an outer edge of the electrical switch, where the rib transfers external forces applied to the electrical switch to the enclosure by limiting movement of the hinged armature towards an outer edge of the electrical switch.

An electromagnetic contactor in which a shock-absorbing member is integrally formed in a frame. The electromagnetic contactor includes a first frame in which an operating electromagnet is disposed and coil terminals which supply power to a coil of the electromagnet is formed to project from a side surface, and a second frame in which a contact mechanism having an auxiliary contact is disposed and has power source side terminals on one end side and load side terminals on the other end side, and in the first frame and the second frame, a snap fit is formed which can attach the second frame to the first frame in both of a normal direction coupled state where the coil terminals and the power source side terminals face the same direction and a reverse direction coupled state in which the coil terminals and the load side terminals face the same direction.

An electromagnetic relay includes a mobile component movable at time of energization and de-energization of a coil, and a fixed component immovable at the time of energization and de-energization of the coil. A damping space is provided between the mobile component and the fixed component and changes in volume with the movement of the mobile component. A gap provided between the mobile component and the fixed component serves as a passage that allows gas to flow into or out of the damping space when the damping space changes in volume. A size of the gap is set such that a pressure is generated in the damping space to cause a damping force acting on the mobile component when the damping space changes in volume.

An electromagnetic relay includes a housing, a pair of fixed terminals, a movable contactor that is movably disposed so as to approach and separate from a fixed contact placement surface of each of the pair of fixed terminals, a movable shaft capable of moving in conjunction with the movable contactor, electromagnetic drive unit that drives the movable shaft to move the movable contactor in a moving direction, and an attenuation mechanism unit that includes an insulating attenuation member disposed between the movable contactor and the electromagnetic drive unit, and a sound insulating gap provided between the attenuation member and the electromagnetic drive unit.

An electromagnetic contactor with connecting spring including: a movable core contact plate section that is inserted into a through hole formed in a movable core and comes into contact with a contact support side of the through hole; and a pair of curved plate sections each joined to either end of the movable core contact plate section and housed in connecting spring tip housing sections formed in the contact support, the sides of which opposite to a contact surface of the movable core contact plate section come into contact with the connecting spring tip housing sections. In the movable core contact plate section, a depressed section is formed in a direction crossing a longitudinal direction to bulge out to an opposite side to the contact support side is formed, and contact sections that come into contact with the through hole are formed on both ends of the depressed section.

An electromagnetic relay includes an electromagnet device, an armature and a fixed terminal. By coil current through a coil, the electromagnet device generates first magnetic flux that forces the armature and the electromagnet device together or apart in a first end in a first direction of the armature. The armature is connected with a movable contact at a second end of the first direction and forces the movable contact and a fixed contact together or apart according to coil current. The fixed terminal is electrically connected with the fixed contact, and provided around the armature so as to cross the armature as seen from a second direction perpendicular to the first direction with the armature closing the fixed and movable contacts. Electric current through the fixed terminal generates a second magnetic flux in the armature, a direction of which is opposite to that of the first magnetic flux.
