摘要:
A contact opening and closing device includes a driven contact, a driving contact, and a solenoid actuator. The driving contact is configured to move with respect to the driven contact. The solenoid actuator includes a movable component configured to move to an off position and an on position. When the movable component is in the off position, the driving contact and the driven contact are in a state of non-contact. When the movable component is in the on position, the driving contact and the driven contact are in a state of contact. When the driving contact and the driven contact are switched from a state of non-contact to a state of contact, the movable component moves from the off position to the on position through an overshoot position located beyond the on position.

Provided is a movable plate 60 which needs less energy consumption, less components, and less assembling processes, but ensures a high productivity. The movable contact plate, comprising three stacked conductive thin plate springs 61, 65, 67, has one end connected to a movable contact terminal 54 and the other end supporting movable contacts 56, 57 integrally fixed thereto. The plate is drivingly moved in its thicknesswise direction by an engagement at a distal end thereof with a card 40 to make and break contacts with stationary contacts 52, 53. The inward conductive thin plate spring has at its distal end a driving elastic tongue 64a and the outward conductive thin plate spring has at its distal end a pair of returning elastic tongues 67b, 67c which are configured to take a condition that only one of the returning elastic tongues makes a contact with the card while the movable contact plate is being moved toward a condition where the movable and stationary contacts are disconnected.

Provided is a contact mechanism for engaging driving projections 43, 44 provided on one end of a slidable card 40 with a distal end of a movable contact plate 60 and sliding the card to rotate the movable contact plate, causing movable contacts 56,57 on the movable contact plate to connect with and disconnect from stationary contacts 52, 53. The mechanism comprises a pair of driving projections on one end of the card and projected in opposite directions from neighborhood corners of the one end of the card, and a pair of returning elastic tongues 67b, 67c disposed so that they can make contacts with the driving projections. When the movable contacts are in contact with the stationary contacts, a distance between one of the driving projections 44 and one of the returning elastic tongues 67b is smaller than that between the other of the driving projections 43 and the other of the returning elastic tongues 67c.
