An electromagnetic relay has a movable touch piece, a movable contact provided on the movable touch piece, and a fixed contact opposed to the movable contact. The movable touch piece is rotated by a movable iron piece that rotates based on magnetization and demagnetization of an electromagnet block, to make the movable contact come into contact with and separate from the fixed contact. Operation characteristics are made adjustable by a press-fitting amount at the time of press-fitting a fixed contact terminal provided with the fixed contact into a spool of the electromagnet block along a moving direction of the movable contact.

Electromagnetic relay having a movable contact and a fixed contact and method for manufacturing the same

A coil terminal has a winding section comprising an end of coiled wire wound therearound. The winding section is bent relative to a remaining section of the coil terminal. The winding section has a proximal wire engagement portion and a distal wire engagement portion spaced away from each other in a longitudinal direction of the winding section, and an intermediate region disposed between the proximal wire engagement portion and the distal wire engagement portion. The wire end is extended in the intermediate region without being wound around the intermediate region.

Coil terminal and electromagnetic relay

An electromagnetic relay has a base having an upper surface, an electromagnet block, formed by winding a coil around a spool with at least one end provided with a guard portion and inserting an iron core through a through hole of the spool, mounted on the upper surface of the base such that a shaft center of the iron core is parallel to the base, a movable contact, provided at a free end of a movable touch piece that rotates based on magnetization and demagnetization of the electromagnet block, that is brought into contact with or separated from a fixed contact, and a press-fitting portion that is press-fitted into a press-fitting hole provided at the edge of the outward surface of the guard portion along the shaft center of the iron core. The press-fitting portion extends to the lateral side from a fixed contact terminal that has the fixed contact.
