Background
The relay is an automatic switch element with an isolation function, is widely applied to remote control, remote measurement, communication, automatic control, electromechanical integration and power electronic equipment, and is one of the most important control elements. Relays are used as automatic switches in electrical circuits to reliably switch the electrical circuits on and off. When the contact is cut off, an arc is generated due to the load applied to the contact. If the electric arc can extinguish fast, the service life of the relay can be greatly prolonged. In some door relays, such as high-voltage direct-current relays, ceramic materials are often used, and the high-temperature resistance of the ceramic materials is utilized to cool an electric arc, so that the extinguishing speed of the electric arc is increased. However, the existing ceramic arc extinguishing structure has unsatisfactory arc extinguishing effect.
