ABSTRACT:
A low cost and highly reliable vacuum circuit interrupter and a method of manufacturing the same improve production efficiency and vacuum tight sealing property of the vacuum circuit interrupter. In the vacuum circuit interrupter, within a sealed vacuum vessel 100 a pair of separable conductors in center axial direction of the sealed vacuum vessel composed of a stationary conductor 3 and a movable conductor 5 are disposed. The sealed vacuum vessel 100 is sealed in vacuum tightness in such a manner that an upper end portion 1A of a hollow cylindrical insulation body 1 is sealed with a flexible member 6 generally called a bellows and a metal end plate 7 by joining a movable conductor side 6A of the bellows 6 to the movable conductor 5 so as to permit separation of the movable conductor 5 from the stationary conductor 3 while maintaining the vacuum sealed condition in the vacuum sealed vessel 100, and by joining one end of the metal end plate 7 with the upper end portion 1A of the hollow cylindrical insulation body 1 and the other end thereof with a metal end plate side 6B of the bellows 6. A lower end portion 1B of the hollow cylindrical insulation body 1 is sealed with the stationary conductor 3 by itself.
