  • Publication number: 20190228940
    Abstract: Provided herein are modular fuse holders for single bolt fuses. In some approaches, a fuse holder may include a base having a lower wall and a set of sidewalls, the lower wall including a plurality of bolt openings provided therethrough. The fuse holder may further include a cover securable with the base, the cover including an upper wall and a set of outer walls, the outer walls including a plurality of cable openings, wherein the base and the cover define an interior cavity for housing a bolt assembly. In some approaches, the fuse holder may include a busbar atop the lower wall of the base, the busbar including a set of openings aligned with one or more of the bolt openings of the lower wall. In some embodiments, a side cover may extend over some of the plurality of cable openings in the outer wall of the cover.

  • Patent number: 7515399
    Abstract: In order to render possible a compact means for power distribution and fuse protection on the basis of a printed circuit board, the apparatus has a multiple fuse arrangement which comprises a plurality of fuses and is connected to a plurality of output contacts. Furthermore, a printed circuit board is provided, which has a feed plate, which is connected to the multiple fuse arrangement, in particular by means of plug-in contact elements, arranged on one of its sides. The output contacts are arranged on that side of the printed circuit board which is opposite the feed plate.

  • Patent number: 7172471
    Abstract: The invention relates to an electrical high-current contact element essentially comprising a basic contact element made of metal exhibiting good conductivity and a steel spring, which is incorporated into a plug connector housing for the mounting of a high-current plug connector. The steel spring comprises two spring arms at a distance from one another, which are connected to one another by means of a U spring arm base. The contact arm is arranged in a manner reaching through the spring arm base between the spring arm and the spring arm. The high-current mating contact element is inserted into the mouthlike plug-in opening during the production of the plug connection, functional parts at plug connector housing and high-current mating plug connector opening the two spring arms and thus also the plug-in opening.
