Therefore, the generated arcs do not meet each other, and thus can be effectively extinguished and discharged.

The present disclosure relates to an arc extinguishing assembly, including side members which are spaced apart by a certain distance and disposed to face each other; an exhaust which is installed on an upper part of the side member; a plurality of grids which are installed between the side members and having both ends fixed to each of the side members; an arc guide having one end coupled to the side member and installed under the plurality of grids; and a magnet which is installed such that both ends are respectively coupled to the side members under the plurality of grids, and forms an electromagnetic force in a direction toward the grid, and a circuit breaker including the same.

A power supply system includes a switch unit and an operating mechanism. The switch unit includes: an arc-extinguishing functional component, a fixed contact assembly, a moving contact, and a first magnet assembly. The arc-extinguishing functional component is located inside the arc-extinguishing functional component and can move relative to the fixed contact assembly. The operating mechanism controls the switch unit to be opened when receiving a switch-off signal, so that the moving contact is separated from the fixed contact assembly. An electric arc is formed between the moving contact and the fixed contact assembly in a separation process. Directions of at least some magnetic induction lines of the first magnet assembly intersect a current direction of the electric arc to drive the electric arc to move towards the arc-extinguishing functional component.

An arc path formation unit and a direct current relay are disclosed. The arc path formation unit, according to various embodiments of the present disclosure, includes a Halbach array provided in at least one of the forward and backward directions. The Halbach array forms a magnetic field within an arc chamber by itself or along with another magnetic body. An electromagnetic force may be generated for inducing an arc that is generated by a formed magnetic field and current flowing through the direct current relay. The electromagnetic force is generated in a direction away from each fixed contact. Accordingly, the generated arc can be extinguished and discharged effectively.

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.

Disclosed are an arc path forming unit and a direct current relay comprising same. The arc path forming unit, according to one embodiment of the disclosure, comprises a plurality of magnet units disposed adjacent to each of fixed contacts. At least one of the plurality of magnet units disposed adjacent to each fixed contact is configured so that the side thereof facing the rest of the magnet units has a different polarity. Accordingly, an arc path is formed from each fixed contact in different directions from each other. Further, the arc path is formed so as to move away from the center part of the arc path forming unit. Accordingly, damage to components disposed in the center part may be prevented.
