Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present disclosure relates to a movable contact bracket assembly and a contactor, the movable contact bracket assembly includes a movable contact and a movable contact bracket, the movable contact bracket assembly further includes a magnetic conductive frame, the magnetic conductive frame is configured to at least partially surround the movable contact to protect the movable contact from arc erosion.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A movable contact bracket assembly, comprising a movable contact and a movable contact bracket, wherein the movable contact bracket assembly further comprises a magnetic conductive frame which is configured to at least partially surround the movable contact to protect the movable contact from arc erosion, a contour of the magnetic conductive frame is configured to match a contour of the movable contact to at least partially surround the movable contact, the magnetic conductive frame comprises an opening, and a contact of the movable contact extends through the opening by a predetermined distance, and the predetermined distance is selected to facilitate guiding an arc generated upon the movable contact and a stationary contact being separated from each other from the movable contact to the magnetic conductive frame. 2. The movable contact bracket assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the magnetic conductive frame completely surrounds all portions except the contact of the movable contact. 3. The movable contact bracket assembly according to claim 2 , wherein the magnetic conductive frame comprises a notch to reduce a weight of the magnetic conductive frame. 4. The movable contact bracket assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the magnetic conductive frame comprises a first through hole, the movable contact comprises a second through hole, and a guide shaft passes through the first through hole and the second through hole to connect the magnetic conductive frame and the movable contact. 5. The movable contact bracket assembly according to claim 4 , wherein the movable contact bracket comprises a guide groove along which the guide shaft can move. 6. The movable contact bracket assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the movable contact bracket assembly further comprises a heat insulation element which is arranged between the movable contact and the movable contact bracket. 7. A contactor, wherein the contactor comprises the movable contact bracket assembly according to claim 1 .
