ELECTROMAGNETIC CONTACTOR

摘要

Provided is an electromagnetic contactor such that it is possible to suppress an emission of contact noise at least when a movable plunger moves a contact mechanism to an engaged position. The electromagnetic contactor includes a contact mechanism (100) including a pair of fixed contacts (111), (112) disposed maintaining a predetermined interval and a movable contact (130) disposed so as to be connectable to and detachable from the pair of fixed contacts, and an electromagnet unit (200) that drives the movable contact, the electromagnet unit including a magnetic yoke (201) enclosing a plunger drive portion, a movable plunger (215) whose leading end protrudes through an aperture (210a) formed in the magnetic yoke and on whose protruding end side is formed a peripheral flange portion (216), movement regulating portions that regulate movement of the peripheral flange portion of the movable plunger in an engaged position and released position of the contact mechanism, and a contact noise suppression member (240) that suppresses contact noise when the peripheral flange portion of the movable plunger comes into contact with the movement regulating portions.
