Distin, Beeston, England, assignor to Ericsson Telephones Limited, London, England, a British com- P y Filed Apr. 28, 1958, Ser. No. 731,381
Claims priority, application Great Britain May 3, 1957 Claims. (Cl. 200-87) The present invention relates to electromagnetic relays and particularly, although not exclusively, to miniature relays.
In relays for electrical control systems, such as guided missiles for example, it is important that the weight and physical dimensions should be small. Moreover since such relays may be subjected to vibration or forces of acceleration of considerable magnitude, it is necessary that the armature should be balanced. In most known relays with balanced armatures, the armature is arranged to pivot in suitable bearings, and this necessitates the manufacture of a number of cylindrical component parts which are usually formed by a machining process. When such relays are of small physical dimensions the machining of the component parts becomes a difficult and costly process. Furthermore, the assembly of the parts to form the completed relay, and the adjustment of the device when so assembled, requires a high degree of technical skill, and this adds considerably to the cost of manufacture.
It is one object of the present invention to provide an improved miniature relay with a balanced armature system, in which at least the majority of the component parts are such that they may be manufactured from flat plates or strips by suitable bending processes, thus avoiding the need for machining of cylindrical component parts.
It is another object of the invention to provide an improved miniature relay with a balanced armature system which is easy to assemble and adjust.
According to the present invention an electromagnetic relay comprises an armature fixed at its centre to an elongated torsion bar intermediate the ends of the bar, one end of the bar being fixed to the frame of the relay and the bar in the vicinity of the armature passing freely through a guide member fixed to the frame, an electromagnet having a winding and poles arranged to co-operate with the armature near the ends thereof, and two resilient contact-making members normally resting against back contacts and engaged by, although not fixed to, the armature on either side of its centre, the arrangement being such that energisation of the electromagnet causes the armature to rock about the axis of the torsion bar and displace the contact-making members from the back contacts into engagement with a pair of front contacts.
Other features of the invention will be apparent from the following description with reference to the accompanying drawing in which,
Fig. l is a perspective view of parts of one embodiment of the invention, disassembled, and
Figs. 2 and 3 are plan views in the unoperated and operated condition respectively of a modified armature and contact assembly, that may be used instead of that shown in Fig. 1.
Referring to Fig. 1, the relay frame is in the form of a member 10 bent into U-shape and having its two ends bent inwards to form lugs 11. The horizontal part'12 of the frame is provided with a hole 13 in which one 2,946,873 Patented July 26, 1960 end 14 of a beryllium-copper torsion bar 14 is fixed, for example by ring punching or spot welding.
An armature 15 in the form of an approximately rectangular fiat plate of soft iron or other suitable magnetic material is slotted at 16 and bent as shown in order to provide an aperture through which the bar 14 passes. The armature is fixed to the bar near to the lower end of the bar by spot welding or otherwise. The lower extremity of the bar 14 passes through a hole 17 in a transverse frame member 18 of non-magnetic material in the form of a fiat rectangular plate having its ends cut away to form lugs 19 engaging in slots 20 in the frame 10. This member 18 acts as a guide member for the torsion bar 14.
A soft iron rod 21 of circular cross-section is bent to the shape shown and forms a U-shaped magnet core. The core is a sliding fit in holes 22 in the part 12 of the frame and holes 23 in the transverse member 18. Coils 24 wound on formers 24' are provided around the limbs of the core 21 and within the frame 10.
The components so far described may be assembled by fixing the end 14 of the bar 14 in the hole 13 with the armature 15 lying, as shown, in the plane of the core 21. The member 18 is then put into place with the lower end of the bar 14 in the hole 17. and the lugs 19 in the slots 20. The lugs are then fixed in the slots by spot welding or by swaging the ends of the lugs. The wound coil formers 24' are then arranged in position within the frame 10 and the core 21 is passed through the holes 22, the coil formers 24' and the holes 23, the armature 15 being slightly twisted to allow the ends 25 of the core to pass and come to lie alongside the armature.
A spring-set assembly comprises a flat rectangular base 26 of insulating material having two pairs of contact members 27, 28 in the form of rigid pillars passing through holes in the base and fixed thereto. Two moving contact members each comprise a resilient member 29, for example of silver-bronze alloy or beryllium-copper, fastened by spot welding to a rigid pillar 30 passing througha hole in the base 26 and fixed therein. These members 29 are arranged normally to bear against the back contact members 28.
The armature 15 has two actuating pins 31 of insulating material fixed thereto and projecting downwardly therefrom. When the frame 10 is assembled on the base 26 with the lugs 11 resting on the upper surface of the base 26, each of the pins 31 is adapted to lie against one of the resiliently mounted contact-making members 29, the
armature being turned, twisting the bar 14, through a small angle to bring the pins 31 behind the members 29, that is to say on the same side thereof as the pillars 28. The lugs 11 are fixed to the base 26 in this example by screws 32 engaging in holes 33, although other means such as rivets may be used to avoid the use of anythreaded parts.
In the unoperated condition the resilience of the members 29 is such as to maintain these members against the back contacts 28 against the small torsional force exerted by the bar 14. The ends of the armature 15 are then spaced from the ends 25 of the core. When the coils 24 are energised, the armature is attracted to the core and the pins 31 engaging the contact members 29 move the latter into contact with the contact members Two further pillars 34 pass through and are fixed in holes in the base 26. The ends of the windings 24, which may be connected in series, are connected to the upper ends of the pillars 34. g
. The base 26 may be formed of a suitable synthetic resin and the pillars 27, 28 and 34 may be embedded therein by a suitable moulding process.
The lower ends of these pillars 27, 28 and 34 may be used as soldering tags or they may be arranged to plug into suitable co-operating sockets.
In a modification, in order to give further support to the lower end of the torsion bar 14, this bar may extend downward and pass through a hole 35 in an L-shaped bracket 36 fixed to the member 18 as indicated in broken lines.
In a further modification shown in Figs. 2 and 3, the armature is bent into approximately 8 shape. Thus the ends of the armature are curved similarly to the cooperating poles 25. The relative positions of the co-operating parts in the unoperated and operated conditions is shown in these figures respectively.
The embodiments described have the advantage that the magnetic actuator, including the parts 10, 21, 24, 18, 14, 15 on the one hand, and the springset assembly including the base 26 and the parts mounted thereon on the other hand, can be assembled as separate units and adjusted before being brought together in the final process of assembly. This yields a considerable saving in overall manufacturing time, as both units may be assembled and adjusted concurrently.
The completed relay may be sealed within a suitable hermetically sealed or dustproof container of known type.
In order to reduce any tendency for the armature to stick to the ends of the core when the excitation is removed, these ends 25 may be coated in known manner with non-magnetic material. For instance they may be plated with non-magnetic metal or metals.
In one example, a relay as shown in Fig. 1 has a frame 10 measuring about /4 inch x 4 inch.
