Abstract
A fuse holder includes a housing and a knob. The housing has a telescoping chamber designed to receive a knob terminal, where the knob terminal is adapted to receive a fuse. The knob has a neck which is inserted into the telescoping chamber to enclose the cylindrical fuse. The housing and neck are made of a polymer having a thermal conductivity in a range of 4.0 to 10 W/mK.
Claims16
A fuse holder comprising:
- a housing comprising a telescoping chamber adapted to receive a knob terminal, wherein the knob terminal is adapted to hold a fuse;
- and
- a knob comprising a neck, wherein the neck is inserted into the telescoping cavity and enclosing the cylindrical fuse;
- the telescoping chamber further comprising:
- a first chamber disposed adjacent a head of the housing, wherein the neck is inserted through the head;
- a second chamber disposed adjacent the first chamber;
- a third chamber disposed adjacent the second chamber, wherein the second chamber is in between the first chamber and the third chamber;
- and
- a fourth chamber adjacent the third chamber;
- a first terminal to connect to a first side of the knob terminal inside the telescoping chamber, the first terminal further comprising:
- a slot section adapted to be inserted into a slot of the housing, the slot section to bisect the third chamber and the fourth chamber;
- and
- a protruding section extend laterally outside the housing, wherein the slot section is orthogonal to the protruding section;
