Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

In some embodiments, a DC relay includes a pair of fixed contacts fixedly installed on one side of a frame, a movable contact movably installed below the pair of fixed contacts and brought into contact with the pair of fixed contacts or separated therefrom, an insulating plate installed below the movable contact, a contact spring provided between the movable contact and the insulating plate, a plate installed below the insulating plate and including a through hole formed in a central portion thereof, a fixed core inserted from above the plate through the through hole and including a shaft hole formed at the center thereof, an anti-noise pad provided between the fixed core and the insulating plate, a movable core installed to be linearly movable below the fixed core, and a shaft installed to penetrate through the through hole.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A DC relay comprising: a pair of fixed contacts fixedly disposed on one side of a frame; a movable contact movably disposed below the pair of fixed contacts and configured to be brought into contact with the pair of fixed contacts or separated therefrom; an insulating plate disposed below the movable contact; a contact spring disposed between the movable contact and the insulating plate; a plate disposed below the insulating plate and including a through hole formed in a central portion thereof; a fixed core inserted from above the plate through the through hole and including a shaft hole disposed at the center thereof; an anti-noise pad disposed between the fixed core and the insulating plate; a movable core configured to be linearly movable below the fixed core; and a shaft configured to penetrate through the through hole and including an upper end fixed to the movable contact and a lower end coupled to the movable core, wherein an installation recess allowing the anti-noise pad to be partially inserted therein is formed below the insulating plate, wherein a height of the anti-noise pad is formed to be longer than a depth of the installation recess, wherein the anti-noise pad is formed to have an area larger than an upper surface of the fixed core, and wherein the anti-noise pad is formed of dual materials, an upper portion of the anti-noise pad is formed of hard rubber and a lower portion of the anti-noise pad is formed of soft rubber. 2. The DC relay of claim 1 , wherein an upper surface of the fixed core includes a flange portion. 3. The DC relay of claim 1 , wherein a plurality of circumferential recesses are disposed on the upper surface of the fixed core. 4. The DC relay of claim 2 , wherein the anti-noise pad covers the flange portion.
