Abstract
A bistable switching arrangement has a magnetic system comprised of a yoke/core, an armature and at least one permanent magnet, as well as a magnetic coil. The armature is swingably held at the core by a spring and mechanically linked to a movable contact, with an air gap being formed in one switching state between the armature and a pole face of the yoke/core combination. In order to attain that only slight forces act upon the released armature, the permanent magnet is positioned in a region of the yoke to form one part of the cross sectional area, with the other part being formed by a non-magnetic member.
