Abstract

An electromagnetic contactor includes an iron core members formed of a first core bent in a U-shape, and a second L-shaped core contacting the first core. A coil is wound around a spool disposed on an upper arm of the first core and the second core to form a main leg while a lower arm of the first core constitutes a yoke. Thus, the iron core members can be processed by a press machine operating at a normal cutting speed, and welding and polishing operations can be eliminated to thereby reduce the number of processing steps required.
