Abstract: A contact for a vacuum interrupter, includes: 1) a contact plate; and 2) a contact carrier. The contact carrier includes: a first end face which is fitted with the contact plate, and a peripheral face which is formed with a slit portion in such a manner as to form a coil part. The coil part flows a current such that a longitudinal magnetic field is formed in an axial direction of the contact carrier. The first end face fitted with the contact plate is formed with a circumferential slit portion which connects to the slit portion.

Abstract: An electrode of a vacuum circuit breaker has a cup member and a contact. The cup member has an opening and a periphery which is formed with a slit so as to form a coil section. An electric current flows in the coil section so as to generate a longitudinal magnetic field in a direction along an axis of the cup member. The slit is bent and continuously extends on the periphery from a first end of the cup member to a second end of the cup member opposite to the first end of the cup member. The contact is shaped into a plate, and seals the opening of the cup member.

Abstract: A contact and a vacuum interrupter using the contact. The contact includes a hollow cylindrical contact carrier and a contact plate disposed on one of the axial end faces of the contact carrier. First slits and second slits extend from the one of the axial end faces of the contact carrier and the other thereof, respectively. The first slits and the second slits are inclined with respect to the center axis of the contact carrier and have a first height x and a second height y extending in the axial direction of the contact carrier, respectively. Assuming that the axial length of the contact carrier is 1, the first height x and the second height y satisfies a relationship given by the following expressions (1)-(3): (1) 0.9≧x, (2) x≧y≧0.2x, (3) 1.4≧x+y≧0.8.
