Abstract
An electric circuit breaker device includes: an igniter; a projectile that is disposed in a movement path, the projectile formed to be movable by actuation of the igniter; and a conductor piece that forms one portion of a predetermined electric circuit, the conductor piece having both end portions connected to respective other portions of the predetermined electric circuit, the conductor piece having a first portion between both the end portions arranged to traverse the movement path. A sensor is connected to a first part positioned between both the end portions and to a second part that is between both the end portions and is different from the first part, the sensor configured to detect current flowing through the conductor piece between both the end portions, the sensor disposed to be integrated with the conductor piece. The actuation of the igniter is controlled, based on the current detected by the sensor.
