Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a vacuum interrupter that is installed within a vacuum circuit breaker to break a circuit. The vacuum interrupter includes an insulated container, a seal cup, a fixing electrode, a diaphragm, and a movable electrode. The insulated container is formed in a cylindrical form. The seal cup is installed on an upper end of the insulated container. The fixing electrode includes a fixing shaft and a fixing contact member installed on the other end of the fixing shaft. The diaphragm is installed on a lower end of the insulated container. The movable electrode includes a movable shaft having one end fixed to the diaphragm and the other end disposed within the insulated container and formed to be linearly movable, and a movable contact member installed on the other end of the movable shaft to be selectively contacted to the fixing contact member.

Abstract: Disclosed are an electrode assembly and a vacuum interrupter including the same. The electrode assembly is provided in an insulating vessel which is in a vacuum state, and switches a main circuit. The electrode assembly includes a first electrode plate, a second electrode, a coil conductor, a first conductor, and a second conductor. The coil conductor induces a flow of a current in a first direction and a second direction between the other side of the first conductor connecting pin and the one side of the second conductor connecting pin, and the first direction and the second direction are mutually opposite circumference directions. Accordingly, an arc gas is effectively spread by using mutually opposite flows of currents in a circumference direction, thereby enhancing break performance.

Abstract: An electrode assembly for a vacuum interrupter is configured such that supporting members can support most of a contact electrode plate and a supporting electrode plate in an axial direction with coil conductors interposed therebetween. Accordingly, an impact generated between electrode assemblies upon a closing operation of the vacuum interrupter may be evenly distributed onto the supporting members, which may result in preventing each of the electrode plates and the coil conductors from being deformed. Also, the supporting members are inserted into the electrode plates and the coil conductors, thereby effectively preventing a current from flowing via the supporting members. In addition, the supporting member may be wide and large so as to simplify an assembly operation and reduce an assembly time.

Abstract: A vacuum interrupter is provided. As a main shield and sub shields are installed in an overlapping manner, an equipotential distribution can be mitigated and thusly a dielectric strength can be enhanced. Also, as a curved portion is formed at each end of the shields, concentration of an electric field at an end of each shield can be prevented and accordingly an electric field value can be lowered. Consequently, the dielectric strength can be remarkably enhanced, resulting in an effective prevention of a dielectric breakdown.

Abstract: Disclosed is an electrode for a vacuum interrupter, capable of reducing damage of contacts due to heat concentration to the center of the contacts, by reducing magnetic flux concentration to the center of the electrode, and capable of rapidly extinguishing an arc by diffusing the arc by forming a wide range of magnetic flux.

Abstract: An electromagnetic linear actuator is disclosed that is capable of providing a large driving force adequately used for a high-voltage circuit breaker due to simplified structure and reduced manufacturing cost, the actuator comprising: stators each facing the other about an axle; a mover disposed with a moving core and a moving coil wrapping the moving core to magnetize the moving core during conduction, and capable of linearly and axially moving an interior of the stator; and permanent magnets, one facing the other, and fixedly mounted on both inner walls of the stator for providing a Lorentz force and reluctance force to the moving coil for movement when a current flows in the moving coil of the mover, and for providing a holding force to the mover for holding a position when the electric conduction to the moving coil of the mover is interrupted.
