Abstract
Therefore, the invention of the present application provides a fuse in which a position and a posture of a fuse element are easily stabilized and which is easily assembled, and a method for manufacturing the fuse. A fuse including a fuse element having a fusing portion; and a casing accommodating the fusing portion; where the fuse element has a long shape extending in a longitudinal direction of the casing and at least two or more fuse elements are provided; the fuse element has one end portion side coupled to each other by a coupling portion; a first holding portion that holds the fuse element is provided in one opening of the casing; and a locking portion that locks the coupling portion of the fuse element is provided in the first holding portion.
Claims9
A fuse comprising:
- a plurality of fuse elements having a fusing portion;
- and
- a casing accommodating the fusing portion;
- wherein
- each of the plurality of fuse elements has a long shape extending in a longitudinal direction of the casing;
- each of the plurality of fuse elements has a first end portion side coupled to each other by a coupling portion;
- a first holding portion that holds each of the plurality of fuse elements is provided in a first opening of the casing;
