Surface-mount current fuse

A surface mount current fuse comprising:

• a first base made of resin;
• the second base made of resin, the second base being disposed on an upper surface of the first base;
• a body formed of the first base and the second base;
• a pair of third external electrodes at both ends of the body;
• an element portion between the upper surface of the first base and a lower surface of the second base, the element portion being connected to the pair of third external electrodes, wherein
• each of the upper surface of the first base and the lower surface of the second base is provided with a recess, and
• the recesses are opposed to form a space portion in which to dispose the element portion.

A surface mount current fuse comprising:

• a first base and a second base each having insulating properties, each of the first base and the second base being provided with a pair of metal films integrally covering at least an upper surface, a lower surface, and an end surface at both ends thereof, the first base having a recess in an upper surface thereof,
• a body formed of the first base and the second base by joining the lower surface of the second base to the upper surface of the first base;
• and
• an element portion between the upper surface of the first base and the lower surface of the second base, the element portion being connected to the metal films, wherein
• the element portion is disposed in a space portion formed by facing the recess formed in the upper surface of the first base and a recess formed in the lower surface of the second base.
