ABSTRACT:
A relay having a housing and a base has a number of flexible contact elements mounted in slots in the base, each having a fixed terminal extending out of the relay and a contact portion extending inside the relay movable by an electromagnetic actuator. Each contact element has a longitudinal slot therein for receiving a transverse rib carried on the relay base for rigidly retaining the contact element in place and minimizing transmittal of mechanical displacement forces from the terminal portion of the element to the contact portion thereof. Each contact element may also be provided with a retaining tooth which engages a cooperatively disposed slot in the relay base to add further stability to the contact element mounting. Each contact element may thus be provided with a greater flexible portion thereof having unimpaired movement without increasing the size of the relay housing.
