Abstract

The present invention describes an air circuit breaker having a bounce preventive device which is provided on the direction changing lever interposed between the link mechanism to drive the contact opening and closing mechanism for closure of the contact and the contact opening and closing mechanism, so as to prevent the bouncing phenomenon from occuring at the time of the OFF-operation, thereby making it possible to secure accurate circuit breaking action.
