GAS CIRCUIT BREAKER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240297005 titled 'GAS CIRCUIT BREAKER
The gas circuit breaker described in the patent application consists of a container, opposing part, movable part, and nozzle, all filled with an arc-extinguishing gas. The opposing part includes an opposing-arc-contact and an exhaust stack, while the movable part has a movable-arc-contact that connects with the opposing-arc-contact in a closed state and separates in an open state. A pressure accumulation part increases the gas pressure, and the nozzle facilitates arc discharge between the contacts.
- The gas circuit breaker utilizes an arc-extinguishing gas to extinguish arcs in electrical circuits.
- The opposing part houses an opposing-arc-contact and an exhaust stack for efficient gas flow.
- The movable part contains a movable-arc-contact that connects and disconnects from the opposing-arc-contact.
- A pressure accumulation part increases gas pressure to aid in extinguishing arcs.
- The nozzle features jet holes that eject gas to extinguish arc discharges effectively.
Potential Applications: - Electrical power distribution systems - Industrial machinery protection - Renewable energy systems
Problems Solved: - Preventing electrical arcing in circuits - Ensuring safe and reliable operation of electrical equipment
Benefits: - Enhanced safety in electrical systems - Improved reliability of circuit breakers - Efficient arc extinguishing capabilities

Original Abstract Submitted
the gas-circuit-breaker includes a container, opposing part, movable-part, and nozzle. an arc-extinguishing gas fills the container. the opposing-part is housed in the container and includes an opposing-arc-contact and an exhaust stack. the movable-part is housed in the container and includes a movable-arc-contact coming in contact with the opposing-arc-contact in a connected-state and separating from the opposing-arc-contact in an open-state; and a pressure-accumulation-part where an arc-extinguishing gas pressure increases. the nozzle is housed in the container and includes a space where arc-discharge occurs between the movable-arc-contact and the opposing-arc-contact. the nozzle includes a middle-part where the opposing-arc-contact is inserted and one or more jet-holes that eject, toward the space, partial arc-extinguishing gas flowing in from a flow-passage between the pressure-accumulation-part and the middle-part. the arc-extinguishing gas whose pressure increases in the pressure-accumulation-part flows into the space via the flow-passage and the jet-holes to extinguish the arc-discharge.
