Closing action characteristics of the electromagnetic mechanism of the parallel double coil type DC contactor

DC contactor is one of the most widely configured switching appliances in new energy systems and electric vehicles. The dynamic characteristic of DC contactor is one of the important indexes to measure the performance of DC contactor. A dynamic model of the electromagnetic mechanism of DC contactor with parallel double coil type is established in this paper. Dynamical model of the electromagnetic mechanism of DC contactor is simulated. The closing process simulation analyzed of the electromagnetic mechanism of DC contactor by using the co-simulation research method based on Adams and Maxwell. The research results show that the simulation closing time of the closing action the mechanism is consistent with the test closing time. The correctness of the simulation method is verified. At the same time, the influence of spring parameters, coil parameters and other factors on the closing motion characteristics of the mechanism is studied. The change of spring pre-pressure has little influence on the closing time wit
