Abstract
Disclosed are an arc path generation unit and a direct current relay including the same. An arc path generation unit according to various exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure comprises a Halbach array or a magnet part which forms a magnetic field in a space part for accommodating fixed contacts. The formed magnetic field forms an electromagnetic force, together with the current flowing a direct current relay. The formed electromagnetic force may induce generated arcs. The electromagnetic force formed near each fixed contact is formed in a direction going away from each fixed contact. Therefore, the generated arcs do not meet each other, and thus can be effectively suppressed and discharged.
