Abstract
An electromagnetic relay comprises an excitation coil for actuating relay contacts through the operation of a card coupled to an armature of the coil. The relay has at least one double-throw switch in which a pair of first and second movable contact members are driven to move with respect to a fixed or common contact member disposed therebetween for closing and opening contact operations in cooperation with the fixed contact. All these contact members are mounted on a contact base such that the fixed contact member is arranged between the first and second contact members. Also mounted on the contact base is at least one set of common, first, and second terminal lugs which are connected respectively to the fixed, first and second contact members to project downwardly from the base. The first and second terminal lugs are disposed in generally vertical alignment respectively with the corresponding first and second contact members, while the common terminal lug is disposed out of vertical alignment with the corresponding common contact member so as to be terminal arrangement of a conventional relay of flexure type having the like double-throw switch arrangement so that the above relay can be well compatible therewith.
