[0019] The following description is only used to disclose the utility model so that those skilled in the art can implement the utility model. The embodiments described below are only for example, and those skilled in the art can think of other obvious variations. The basic principles of the utility model defined in the following description can be applied to other embodiments, variations, improvements, equivalents, and other solutions that do not deviate from the spirit and scope of the utility model.

[0020] A double-flow circuit breaker, such as Figure 1-Figure 4 , including a shell 14, an arc isolation wall 11, a magnetizing sheet 16 and an arc extinguishing chamber 15, and also including traditional circuit breaker structures such as an operating mechanism, a contact structure, a wiring structure, and a tripping structure. The above structure is consistent with the traditional circuit breaker and will not be repeated. The magnetizing sheet 16 is arranged between the arc isolation wall 11 and the shell 14, and an arc running channel 18 is formed between the front and rear arc isolation walls 11. The arc running channel 18 is connected to the arc extinguishing chamber 15, and an arc extinguishing grid is arranged in the arc extinguishing chamber 15.

[0021] like Figure 2, an arc-blocking protrusion 12 is provided on the arc-isolating wall 11, and the arc-blocking protrusion 12 has a bend, and its opening direction is opposite to the movement direction of the arc entering the arc extinguishing chamber 15 through the arc running channel. There are several groups of arc-blocking protrusions 12, and three groups are provided in this embodiment. The arc-blocking protrusions 12 are dispersedly arranged along the extension direction of the arc running channel 18 to improve the diversion effect. Since the arc running channel 18 is a curved channel, the opening directions of each group of arc-blocking protrusions 12 are different. In this embodiment, the arc-blocking protrusion 12 is an arrow-shaped structure. In other embodiments, an arc-shaped structure or the like can also be used. A through hole 13 is provided on the arc-isolating wall 11, and the through hole 13 is located at the opening position of the arc-blocking protrusion 12. A through hole 2 17 is provided on the magnetizing sheet 16 corresponding to the through hole 13. The through hole 13 and the through hole 2 17 are diamond-shaped holes. The through hole is arranged in a shape consistent with the arc-blocking protrusion 12 to facilitate the passage of the arc. The front and rear arc-isolating walls 11 and the magnetizing sheet 16 have the same structure.

[0022] The arc running channel 18 constitutes the main flow channel of the arc, and the through hole 13, the through hole 2 17 and the shell constitute the branch flow channel of the arc, thereby forming a double flow channel (also called a multi-flow channel). After part of the arc is blocked by the arc blocking protrusion 12, the flow direction of the arc is guided so that it passes through the through hole 13 and the through hole 2 17 and enters the inner wall position of the shell, such as Figure 4 The arc enters the arc extinguishing chamber 15 along the flow path at the shell, thereby realizing multi-flow path arc striking.

[0023] Multi-channel arc initiation can accelerate arc cooling, reduce arc energy, and improve product breaking capacity. The arc entering the shell position will not return to the arc running channel 18 due to different arc paths. This arc will not cause arc back breakdown, thereby improving the breaking capacity of the product.

[0024] Preferably, the height of the arc-blocking protrusion 12 is less than one-fourth of the distance between the front and rear arc-isolating walls 11 , that is, the total width of the arc-running channel 18 occupied by the front and rear arc-blocking protrusions 12 is less than half of the front and rear width of the arc-running channel 18 , thereby avoiding a significant impact on the main arc-starting effect of the arc-running channel 18 .

[0025] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present invention described above and shown in the accompanying drawings are only examples and do not limit the present invention. The purpose of the present invention has been fully and effectively achieved. The functions and structural principles of the present invention have been demonstrated and explained in the embodiments. Without departing from the principles, the embodiments of the present invention may be deformed and modified in any way.
