Abstract
An electromagnetic relay includes a fixed contact, a movable contact piece having a movable contact, a drive shaft, an electromagnetic drive device, and a positioning portion. The movable contact piece is movable in a first direction contacting the fixed contact and in a second direction separating from the fixed contact. The electromagnetic drive device includes a movable iron core integrally movably connected to the drive shaft. The electromagnetic drive device switches between a contact state in which the movable contact comes into contact with the fixed contact and a separate state in which the movable contact is separated from the fixed contact by moving the drive shaft with the movable iron core. The positioning portion positions the drive shaft or the movable iron core in the separate state. The drive shaft or the movable iron core includes a first inclined portion that contacts the positioning portion in the separate state.
