Starter-use electromagnetic switch
First Claim
1. A starter-use electromagnetic switch including an electrical contact interposed in a power supply line for supplying power from a battery to a motor of a starter, the main contact being turned on and off in interlock with energization and deenergization of an electromagnet implemented by an excitation coil of the starter-use electromagnetic switch, comprising:
- a connection fitting electrically connected to the excitation coil at one end thereof, and drawn outside through a resin cover of the starter-use electromagnetic switch at the other end thereof; and
a terminal fitting electrically and mechanically connected to the other end of the connection fitting at one end thereof, the other end of the terminal fitting being branched into first and second terminal pieces,the first terminal piece serving as an excitation terminal supplied with power from the battery through the power supply line,the second terminal piece being used as a connection terminal connected to an excitation terminal of an external electromagnetic switch through a cable.

Abstract
The starter-use electromagnetic switch has an electrical contact interposed in a power supply line for supplying power from a battery to a starter motor, the main contact being turned on and off in interlock with energization of an electromagnet implemented by an excitation coil. The electromagnetic switch includes a connection fitting connected to the excitation coil at one end thereof and drawn outside through a resin cover of the electromagnetic switch at the other end thereof, and a terminal fitting electrically and mechanically connected to the other end of the connection fitting at one end thereof, the other end of the terminal fitting being branched into first and second terminal pieces. The first terminal piece serves as an excitation terminal supplied with power from the battery. The second terminal piece serves as a connection terminal connected to an excitation terminal of an external electromagnetic switch through a cable.

9. A starter-use electromagnetic switch including a first solenoid having a first excitation coil for pushing out a pinion of a starter toward a ring gear of an engine using an attraction force of a first electromagnet implemented by the first excitation coil, and a second solenoid having a main contact interposed in a power supply line for supplying power from a battery to a motor of a starter and a second excitation coil for interrupting a current supplied to the motor through the power supply line by opening and closing the main contact in interlock with an on/off state of a second electromagnet implemented by the second excitation coil, comprising:
-
a first connection fitting electrically connected to the first excitation coil at one end thereof, and drawn outside through the resin cover at the other end thereof; a second connection fitting electrically connected to the second excitation coil at one end thereof, and drawn outside through a resin cover of the starter-use electromagnetic switch at the other end thereof; a first terminal fitting electrically and mechanically connected to the other end of the first connection fitting at one end thereof, the other end thereof serving as a first excitation coil supplied with power from the battery through a power feed line; and a second terminal fitting electrically and mechanically connected to the other end of the second fitting, and branched into first and second terminal pieces at the other end thereof, the first terminal piece serving as a second excitation terminal supplied with power from the battery through the power feed line, the second terminal piece serving as a connection terminal electrically connected through a cable to an excitation terminal of an auxiliary electromagnetic switch for suppressing a starting current flowing to the motor when the main contact is closed. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
