Abstract (en)

[origin: JPH0329230A] PURPOSE: To reduce the mass of a movable device and to enable savings of the energy required for operating a circuit breaker by providing the movable device including cylindrical members comprising tubes, etc. CONSTITUTION: When a circuit breaker is opened, a tube 22 is moved to the right at a high speed V2. While a tube 30 leaving a finger 3 travels a distance L1 at a speed V1, a movable contact relatively moves a distance L2 longer than the distance L1 at the speed V2 greater than time speed V1. After the main contact 3 and the tube 30 have been separated, a current flows through tubes 4, 15, the contact 13, a tube 9, and a ring 7. Thereby the mass of a movable device is greatly reduced. At the same time, the speed of a movable main contact decreases, resulting in significant savings of the energy required for operating a circuit breaker.
