Abstract
A substrate-type plug-in fuse to be directly inserted into slots of a pair of pressure terminals, including a substrate on a surface of which a fuse-forming pattern and terminal-forming patterns are provided, wherein the substrate is made of elastic material so that the terminal portions of the substrate can shrink and press against walls of the slots when inserted in the slots, thereby maintaining good conductivity between the fuse and the pressure terminals.
Claims7
A substrate-type plug-in fuse, comprising:
- a substrate on a surface of which a fuse-forming pattern interconnected with terminal-forming patterns are provided, said terminal-forming patterns being formed at terminal portions of the substrate;
- and
- a pair of pressure terminals each having a pair of walls defining a slot having a predetermined width;
- wherein said terminal portions have a thickness greater than the width of said slot whereby said walls will deform said terminal portions when said terminal portions are inserted into said slots to form a positive electrical interconnection therebetween.
