The auxiliary spring (33) is a torsion spring and is arranged in the auxiliary contact jack (320), one spring arm is matched with the auxiliary contact (31), and the other spring arm is matched with the side wall of the auxiliary contact jack (320).

19. The contact system of claim 18, wherein: the auxiliary contact (31) comprises an auxiliary contact limiting protrusion (312), and one end of the auxiliary spring (33) is in limiting fit with the auxiliary contact limiting protrusion (312) to prevent the auxiliary contact (31) from being separated from the auxiliary contact jack (320).

20. The contact system of claim 18, wherein: the secondary contact jack (320) includes a stop surface (324) disposed at an inlet thereof, and the free end of the spring arm of the secondary spring (33) engages the inner sidewall of the secondary contact jack (320) to positively engage the stop surface (324) to prevent the secondary spring (33) from exiting the secondary contact jack (320).

21. The contact system of claim 16, wherein: the auxiliary support (32) further comprises a limiting part (326), the limiting part (326) is arranged outside the inlet of the auxiliary contact jack (320), and the auxiliary spring (33) enables the auxiliary contact (31) to be in contact with the limiting part (326).

22. The contact system of claim 16, wherein: the auxiliary contact (31) comprises an auxiliary contact inner section (310) and an auxiliary contact outer section (311) which are sequentially connected, and the joint of the auxiliary contact inner section (310) and the auxiliary contact outer section (311) forms auxiliary contact step surfaces (310-311);

The secondary support (32) further includes secondary contact locating surfaces (325) disposed on opposite sides of the inlet of the secondary contact receptacle (320), the secondary contact locating surfaces (325) and the secondary contact step surfaces (310-311) opposing each other to define a depth of insertion of the secondary contact (31) into the secondary contact receptacle (320).

23. A switching device, characterized in that: the switching device comprising the contact system of any one of claims 1-22.
