1. A vacuum interrupter comprising:
a vacuum vessel, having a first end plate and a second end plate, formed by encapsulating both ends of an insulator between the first end plate and the second end plate; a fixed contact fixed to the first end plate and a movable contact supported by the second end plate, wherein the fixed contact and the movable contact are arranged facing each other inside the vacuum vessel; an arc shield surrounding the fixed contact and the movable contact; a movable conductor, an end of which is fixed to the movable contact and the other end of which is extracted outside the vacuum vessel, for contacting the movable contact to and departing the movable contact from the fixed contact due to linear movement of the movable conductor; a bellows, arranged inside the vacuum vessel, having an accordion portion expanding and contracting with the linear movement of the movable conductor; a bellows support member for preventing the bellows from buckling, having a cylindrical shape and being fixed to the second end plate, wherein the bellows support member surrounds a circumference of the bellows and extends beyond an end of the bellows closest to the movable contact,
wherein the bellows support member has a length in an axial direction enough to cover the entire accordion portion of the bellows in a state where the bellows is most expanded, andwherein the accordion portion of the bellows contacts an inside of the bellows support member when the bellows is in a contracted state; and a shielding portion for shielding between the movable contact and the bellows, wherein the shielding portion is disc-shaped and covers an opening of the bellows support member and wherein the bellows are covered by the bellows support member and the shielding portion in a state where the bellows is contracted. |
