Abstract:
Fuse assemblies in the form of fuse blocks and fuse holders include embedded permanent magnet arc suppression features that facilitate higher voltage operation of fusible circuit protection without increasing the size of the fuse assemblies. The embedded magnets apply an external magnetic field upon an overcurrent protection fuse and produce an arc deflection force to enhance arc quenching capability of the fuse without increasing its form factor.
Abstract:
A fuse element capable of surface-mounting and capable of increased ratings while maintaining high-speed blowout property; and a fuse device using the same. A fuse element blown by self-generated heat caused when a rate-exceeding current flows therethrough constitutes a current path of a fuse device and has a low melting point metal layer and a high melting point metal layer laminated onto the low melting point metal layer; when the current flows therethrough, the low melting point metal layer erodes the high melting point metal layer and blowout occurs.
Abstract:
A main body of an electronic part is formed in a rectangular pillared shape having a first and a second axial end surface. A first electrode is formed on the first axial end surface electrically and mechanically connected to a first wiring pattern formed on a board surface of a printed board. A second electrode is formed on the second axial end surface, to which one end of a fuse terminal is electrically connected. The other end of the fuse terminal is connected to a second wiring pattern of the printed board or a wiring member which is formed as an independent member from the printed board. A cut-off portion is formed in a connecting portion of the fuse terminal.

The one of the input portion and the output portion is integrally provided to the fuse. The other of the input portion and the output portion includes a first terminal portion integrally provided to the fuse and fixed to the box via a bolt, and a second terminal portion separately provided from the fuse and connected to the first terminal portion via a connecting member being attachable and detachable on a second face side of the box.
Abstract:
A fused electrical disconnect device comprises a housing and line and load connectors extending from one side of the housing. A line buss is disposed within the housing and is electrically connected to the line connector. A load buss is also disposed within the housing and is electrically connected to the load connector. A fuse holding cartridge is removably insertable into the housing. The fuse holding cartridge includes a body and line and load terminal blades extending from one side of the body. The line terminal blade contacts the line buss and the load terminal blade contacts the load buss when the fuse holding cartridge is inserted into the housing. A load protection fuse is removably insertable between the line and load terminal blades to establish an electrical current path between the line and load terminal blades.

Abstract:
A fuse locking construction for a fuse box, in which a fuse having a fuse member insert molded in a base made of synthetic resin and a pair of terminal plates projecting out of the base from the fuse member is inserted into a fuse mounting portion so as to be locked to the fuse mounting portion. The fuse locking construction includes a pair of locking projections which are, respectively, provided at opposite ends of an insertion mouth of the fuse box for the fuse mounting portion and retain opposite upper ends of the base at the time of completion of insertion of the fuse into the fuse mounting portion so as to lock the fuse to the fuse mounting portion; and a guide groove for guiding each of the terminal plates of the fuse in a direction for inserting the fuse into the fuse mounting portion or drawing the fuse out of the fuse mounting portion, which is formed on each of the locking projections.
Abstract:
A fuse holder assembly (100) has a pair of fuse clips (23) which provide electrical connection between a fuse (22) and a circuit in a printed circuit board (15). The fuse holder assembly (100) securely holds a fuse (22) adjacent to an edge of the printed circuit board and in spaced relation to the printed circuit board (15) for easy access to the fuse and for maximizing the area on the printed circuit board available for circuit components or edge connector contacts. Each fuse clip (23) has a mounting base (25) for mounting to the printed circuit board and for providing electrical connection with the circuit on the printed circuit board, and a retention clip (33) attached to the mounting base. A support (55,58) supports the retention clip and provides access (53,70) to the retention clip for installation and removal of a fuse within the retention clip. The support (55,58) limits the movement of the retention clip with respect to the printed circuit board, while allowing resilient deformation of the clip for receiving and releasing a fuse.
Abstract:
A fuse holder is adapted to be connected to a charge/discharge line which connects to a storage battery, a charge line for charging the storage battery and a discharge line for discharging the storage battery. The fuse holder includes a holder casing having mutually confronting first and second walls which define a cavity within the holder casing, a first contact provided on the first wall of the holder casing and electrically connected to the charge/discharge line, a second contact provided on the second wall of the holder casing, where the second contact has first and second parts which are mutually isolated and are exposed at a surface confronting the first contact, the first part is electrically connected to the charge line and the second part is electrically connected to the discharge line, and a fuse having a first end connected to the first contact and a second end connected to the second contact. The second end of the fuse makes contact with the first and second parts of the second contact thereby electrically connecting the charge line and the discharge line.
Abstract:
A high breaking capacity micro-fuse includes a body having a wall which forms a cavity in a body, pair of conductive terminals extending through the wall, and a fusible element extending between the pair of conductive terminals and connected thereto in the cavity. An insulating member with a hole through which the fusible element extends has a shape by which a space is provided between the inner surface of the wall of the body and the insulating member when the insulating member is disposed in the cavity of the body.
