Abstract

The present invention relates to a vacuum circuit breaker, and more particularly, to a structure for preventing the eccentricity of a movable contact in a vacuum circuit breaker, wherein the concentricity of a fixed contact and the movable contact is maintained by preventing the eccentricity of and maintaining the straightness of the movable contact when the vacuum circuit breaker opens/closes so as to improve sealing performance and to prevent the increase in temperature. The present invention provides the structure for preventing eccentricity of a movable contact in a vacuum circuit breaker, including a housing which comprises an upper terminal installed at an upper portion thereof, a lower terminal installed at a lower portion thereof, and a vacuum interrupter installed therein; a terminal part which comprises a fixed contact and the movable contact disposed in the vacuum interrupter to be contacted with and separated from each other; a rod part including a connecting rod which is connected to the movable contact to move the movable contact in the vacuum interrupter, and passed through the lower terminal to be connected with the movable contact; and a stretchable terminal which is contacted and electrically connected with the lower terminal and the connecting rod, and contacted with the connecting rod to enclose a side surface of the connecting rod.
