Contactor for an electric vehicle, with at least one fixed contact element and a movable contact element which, in a disconnection position, is spaced from the at least one fixed contact element in order to interrupt an electrical connection of the two contact elements, and which, in a closed position, is in electrically conductive contact with the at least one fixed contact element in order to create an electrical connection of the two contact elements, and with a switch actuator, associated with the movable contact element, which is designed to move the movable contact element into the disconnection position or into the closed position.

A mechanical latching accessory kit (1) for a Medium Voltage contactor (100) comprising one or more movable contacts (101) connected through a mechanical link (110) to a contact actuator (102) moving said one or more movable contacts (101) between a contact open position and a contact closed position. The mechanical latching accessory kit (1) comprises: a supporting interface (2) adapted to be fixed to and removed from said Medium Voltage contactor (100); a latching element (3) movable between a first operating position and a second resting position; a latching actuating system (4) moving said latching element (3) between said first, operating, position and said second, resting, position; said latching element (3) being adapted, when it is in said first operating position, to cooperate with the mechanical link (110) of said Medium Voltage contactor (100) to latch said one or more movable contacts (101), and, when it is in said second resting position, to release said one or more movable contacts (101).

A magnetic momentum transfer generator utilizes three or more magnets aligned with each other. A first control magnet is positioned outside a coil. A second magnet is positioned within the windings of the coil and a third magnet is positioned on the opposite side of the coil opposite the control magnet. When the control magnet rotated or moved, mutual magnetic flux lines generated by all three magnets and passing through the coil winding are aligned at right angles to the coil, thereby inducing a maximum voltage at the terminals. This generator is particularly useful for short burst radio micro-transmitters that can be used for battery-less and wireless switching applications.

An electromagnetic relay includes an electromagnet unit, an armature supported so as to be pivotable relative to a yoke by a hinge spring, a contact including a first contact and a second contact, which can switch, in accordance with pivoting of the armature, between a closed contact state and an open contact state, an elastic member which elastically deforms in accordance with pivoting of the armature, and applies a contact force between the first contact and the second contact in the closed contact state, and a magnet which generates an attractive force for retaining the armature in an open contact position corresponding to the open contact state, wherein the armature is retained in the open contact position by a resultant force of a restoring force applied to the armature by the hinge springe, and the attractive force of the magnet.

An electrical assembly comprises a device. The device includes an inductive coil and an armature. The armature is arranged to be moveable between first and second positions when the inductive coil is energized. The electrical assembly further includes a detection unit which is configured to detect an inductance of the inductive coil or a characteristic that corresponds to the inductance of the inductive coil. The detection unit is further configured to determine the position of the armature based on the detected inductance or the detected characteristic.

A latching relay includes a first coil, a second coil and a common plunger operatively connected between the first and second coils such that activation of the first coil moves the plunger to a first position and activation of the second coil moves the plunger to a second position. The latching relay also includes a limit switch having a common contact and first and second coil contacts. A position of the common contact is alternately switched between electrical connection to either the first or second coil contact based on a position of the plunger. The first and second coil contacts are electrically connected to the first and second coils, respectively such that when electrical power is applied to the common contact, the electrical power is alternately applied to either the first coil or the second coil depending on the position of the common contact.
