Abstract
Disclosed is a fusible link unit having a fuse circuit structure containing screw fixing terminal portions linked through fusible members to a linking plate, and a housing into which the first fuse circuit structure is assembled, wherein a plurality of terminal supports for supporting the screw fixing terminal portions in a state that the front surfaces of the screw fixing terminal portions are exposed to outside are provided in the housing. The fusible link unit is improved in that the terminal supports of the housing each include pawl parts for preventing each screw fixing terminal portion from displacing to a surface thereof.

A fusible link unit comprising:
- at least one fuse circuit structure containing a plurality of terminal portions linked through fusible members to a linking plate;
- a housing into which said fuse circuit structure is assembled;
- and
- at least one terminal support for supporting a corresponding one of said terminal portions in a state that a front surface of the corresponding terminal portion is exposed from said housing,
- wherein said terminal support includes at least one pawl part for preventing a displacement of said corresponding terminal portion in a direction substantially normal to a surface of a corresponding terminal portion, and
- wherein said corresponding terminal portion includes a pair of tilting parts which is formed along both sides of said corresponding terminal portion so as to be tilted toward a back surface of said terminal portion, and a pair of pawl parts are provided in said terminal support such that said pawl parts cover said pair of tilting parts, respectively.
