A circuit breaker includes: a bimetal bent by heat generated from a conductive current; a pressing member coupled to an upper part of the bimetal; a cross bar spaced from the pressing member by a prescribed gap, and configured to contact the pressing member and to rotate by being pressed when the bimetal is bent; and a switching mechanism operated by rotation of the cross bar, and configured to separate a movable contactor from a fixed contactor, wherein a coupling hole for coupling the pressing member is provided at an upper part of the bimetal, and wherein the pressing member is bonded to the coupling hole after a prescribed gap between the pressing member and the cross bar has been determined by apply of a current when the pressing member is in a state of being freely movable in the coupling hole. |
