A gas circuit breaker includes a gas suppresser composed of a protruded portion which is formed on a horizontal surface facing an exhaust cylinder of a shaft guide and which forms a gap between itself and the exhaust cylinder and an enlarged portion which is adjacent to the protruded portion and where a gap to the exhaust cylinder is enlarged so that the shaft guide, which operates along an inner circumferential surface of the exhaust cylinder, which is provided to an inner circumferential portion of a movable side main conductor and is provided to outer circumferences of an exhaust shaft and an operation rod, and couples the operation rod with the exhaust shaft, is axially adjacent to a sliding member that slides along the exhaust cylinder with no space to the exhaust cylinder and suppresses discharge of heated and pressurized insulating gas.

Gas circuit breaker

In order to solve the above-described problems, a gas circuit breaker of the present invention has an insulating nozzle disposed so as to cover an inner surface of a coupling member such that an end surface of the coupling member and an end surface of the insulating nozzle form one surface (the end surface of the coupling member is flush with the end surface of the insulating nozzle), in order to suppress contact between a high-temperature and high-pressure gas generated by an arc and the coupling member coupling the insulating nozzle and a driving rod.
