In an electromagnetic relay device, a mover includes a movable contact movable to abut onto and separate from a stationary contact through a contact region defined between the movable and the stationary contacts. A plunger causes the mover to reciprocate to accordingly cause the movable contact to abut onto or separate from the stationary contact. A solenoid unit of the electromagnetic relay device includes an electromagnetic coil, a movable core, and a support member that slidably supports an outer peripheral surface of a slidable contact portion of the movable core. A movable wall member is located between the slidable contact portion and the contact region. The movable wall member reciprocates together with the plunger. The movable wall member is arranged to occupy a region in the electromagnetic relay device. The region contains at least the slidable contact portion when viewed in the reciprocation direction.

An electromagnetic relay includes a first movable contact piece, a moving member, a coil, and a movable iron core. The movable iron core is connected to the moving member and is configured to move by a magnetic force generated by the coil. The moving member is made of an electrical insulator. The moving member includes a support portion and a connecting portion. The support portion holds a first movable contact piece. The connecting portion is connected to the movable iron core. The connecting portion includes a locking groove and a locking projection. An end of the movable iron core is disposed in the locking groove. The locking projection presses the end of the movable iron core in the locking groove. The locking projection extends in a support direction perpendicular to a moving direction of the moving member.

An arc path forming unit and a direct current relay including same are illustrated. The arc path forming unit according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises multiple magnets. Each of the magnets is configured to form a magnetic field at a point where each stationary contact is located. Each of the magnets located adjacent to each stationary contact is configured such that the opposite surfaces thereof have different polarities. A current flowing through a stationary contact and a movable contact and a magnetic field formed by each of the magnets generate an electromagnetic force. The electromagnetic force travels in a direction away from the center of the direct current relay. Therefore, a generated arc travels in the direction of the electromagnetic force and is thus moved in a direction away from the center of the direct current relay. Accordingly, the direct current relay can be prevented from being damaged.
