Switch

1. A switch comprising:

a blade-type moving contact that extends in a radial direction of a turning center and reciprocates such that a free end of the blade-type moving contact draws a turning locus; and

a fixed contact that comes into contact with and separates from the moving contact, the blade-type moving contact and the fixed contact being accommodated in a tank; and

wherein the free end of the moving contact has a shape extending along the turning locus of the moving contact; and

wherein the moving contact is supported by a movable-side support conductor, the fixed contact is supported by a fixed-side support conductor, the fixed contact has an opening through which the moving contact enters, the opening being opposed to the turning center of the moving contact, and the movable-side support conductor and the fixed-side support conductor are arranged substantially on a same straight line extending along a tank center axis.

2. The switch according to claim 1 , wherein the fixed contact includes a plurality of conduction members that come into contact with the moving contact, the conduction members being arranged in a direction of the turning locus of the moving contact.

3. The switch according to claim 2 , wherein the moving contact is accommodated in a slit conductor in a fully opened position.

4. The switch according to claim 3 , wherein the fixed contact is arranged on one end side of a turning range of the moving contact, a grounding fixed contact is arranged on the other end side of the turning range, and the turning center of the moving contact is on the tank center axis.

5. The switch according to claim 3 , wherein an angle formed between the moving contact located in a fully opened position and the moving contact located in a fully closed position is 120°or an angle formed between the moving contact located in the fully opened position and the moving contact located in a grounding position is 120°.

6. The switch according to claim 2 , wherein an angle formed between the tank center axis and the moving contact located in the fully opened position, and an angle formed between the tank center axis and the moving contact located in a fully closed position where the moving contact comes into contact with the fixed contact are substantially equal to each other.

7. The switch according to claim 6 , wherein the fixed contact is arranged on one end side of a turning range of the moving contact, a grounding fixed contact is arranged on the other end side of the turning range, and the turning center of the moving contact is on the tank center axis.

8. The switch according to claim 1 , wherein an angle formed between the moving contact located in a fully opened position and the moving contact located in a fully closed position is 120°, or an angle formed between the moving contact located in the fully opened position and the moving contact located in a grounding position is 120°.

9. The switch according to claim 2 , wherein the movable-side support conductor and the fixed-side support conductor are located substantially on the tank center axis.

10. The switch according to claim 2 , wherein the fixed contact is arranged on one end side of a turning range of the moving contact, a grounding fixed contact is arranged on the other end side of the turning range, and the turning center of the moving contact is on the tank center axis.

11. The switch according to claim 2 , wherein an angle formed between the moving contact located in a fully opened position and the moving contact located in a fully closed position is 120 20 or an angle formed between the moving contact located in the fully opened position and the moving contact located in a grounding position is 120°.

12. The switch according to claim 1 , wherein the moving contact is accommodated in a slit conductor in a fully opened position.

13. The switch according to claim 12 , wherein the fixed contact is arranged on one end side of a turning range of the moving contact, a grounding fixed contact is arranged on the other end side of the turning range, and the turning center of the moving contact is on the tank center axis.

14. The switch according to claim 1 , wherein an angle formed between the tank center axis and the moving contact located in the fully opened position, and an angle formed between the tank center axis and the moving contact located in a fully closed position where the moving contact comes into contact with the fixed contact are substantially equal to each other.

15. The switch according to claim 14 , wherein the fixed contact is arranged on one end side of a turning range of the moving contact, a grounding fixed contact is arranged on the other end side of the turning range, and the turning center of the moving contact is on the tank center axis.

16. The switch according to claim 14 , wherein an angle formed between the moving contact located in a fully opened position and the moving contact located in a fully closed position is 120°, or an angle formed between the moving contact located in the fully opened position and the moving contact located in a grounding position is 120°.

17. The switch according to claim 1 , wherein the fixed contact is arranged on one end side of a turning range of the moving contact, a grounding fixed contact is arranged on the other end side of the turning range, and the turning center of the moving contact is on the tank center axis.

18. The switch according to claim 6 , wherein an angle formed between the moving contact located in a fully opened position and the moving contact located in a fully closed position is 120°, or an angle formed between the moving contact located in the fully opened position and the moving contact located in a grounding position is 120°.
