A relay device includes a positive terminal, a negative terminal spaced from the positive terminal, and a movable terminal that moves between a connection position and a distant position, the connection position being a position at which the movable terminal connects the positive terminal to the negative terminal, the distant position being a position at which the movable terminal is distant from the positive terminal and the negative terminal. The movable terminal includes a first contact portion connected to the positive terminal, a first portion extending away from the first contact portion, a second contact portion connected to the negative terminal, a second portion extending away from the second contact portion, and a connecting portion connecting the first portion to the second portion. The first portion and the second portion are disposed to be opposed to each other.

An actuator apparatus is described as having a stator device, a cover device, a contact device and an attenuation device. The stator device and the cover device are joined in such a manner so that a hollow space is formed between the stator device and the cover device. The cover device has an opening, through which the contact device is guided into the hollow space, so that the contact device runs at least partially in the hollow space and at least partially in the cover device. The attenuation device is positioned in the opening in such a manner so that a high-frequency electromagnetic radiation that travels through the opening is more highly attenuated by the attenuation device than the radiation would be attenuated without the presence of the attenuation device.

A reed switch is positioned within a housing and an actuation or drive coil is wrapped around a central portion of the housing. A permanent magnet for biasing or holding the reed switch contact in a closed positioned is mounted in the housing outside of and spaced apart from the coil and in direct mechanical contact with a bare uninsulated portion of one of the reed switch leads.

The present invention is related to a switching device having a contactor and an actuator. The contactor has at least a first contactor member and a second contactor member. The actuator is configured to actuate the contactor. At least one of the contactor members has a varying or variable thickness along its length such that the at least one of the contactor members has a relatively thick portion and a relatively thin portion.

A contact point device includes: a fixed contact; a movable contactor that has a movable contact capable of being in contact with the fixed contact by moving in parallel with a first direction, and extended along a second direction orthogonal to the first direction; a containing chamber that contains the fixed contact and the movable contact; and a shielding wall disposed inside the containing chamber. The containing chamber has a first space and a second space, the shielding wall faces the first space or the second space, the shielding wall includes a partition wall located between the first space and the second space, the first space and the second space are disposed side by side in a third direction orthogonal to the first direction and the second direction, and the partition wall is located in the first direction from the fixed contact and the movable contact.
