POWER RELAY FOR A VEHICLE

摘要

A power relay for a vehicle is disclosed. The power relay has a housing formed by a connector base and a housing can set thereon, two connection bolts being inserted into the connector base for contacting a load circuit. The power relay further has a coil subassembly arranged in the housing and containing a solenoid coil and an armature. The armature is coupled by a force-transmission member to a contact bridge and can shift in the housing, under the effect of a magnetic field generated by the solenoid coil, in such a way that the contact bridge can be reversibly moved between a closing position, in which the contact bridge bridges the connection bolts in an electro conducting manner, and an opening position, in which the contact bridge is not in contact with the connection bolts. The housing can is configured as an injection-molded component made of plastic.

主权项

1. A power relay for a vehicle, comprising:
a housing having a connector base and a housing can mounted on said connector base, said housing can being an injection molded component made of plastic; two terminal studs for contacting a load circuit and inserted into said connector base; and a coil subassembly disposed in said housing and containing a solenoid coil, an armature, a force-transmission member and a contact bridge, said armature is coupled by said force-transmission member to said contact bridge and can be moved in said housing, under an action of a magnetic field generated by said solenoid coil, such that said contact bridge can be moved reversibly between a closed position, in which said contact bridge bridges said terminal studs in an electrically conducting manner, and an open position, in which said contact bridge is not in contact with said terminal studs.
