Abstract: A miniature plug-in fuse assembly is provided in which a pair of conductive legs and a fuse link interconnecting them are integrally formed from fusible metal. An insulating casing wholly encloses the fuse link and a portion of the conductive legs, the casing having a hollow body with a cover which does not extend beyond the body in its longer dimension. The cover is secured to the body by a retaining arrangement employing the ends of the conductive legs, which also provides for the insertion of a test current to test the fuse link. Other ends of the legs extend through the body to provide plug-in members. The legs are fastened to the body by protruding lugs on the plug-in members and projecting stops on the portion of the legs in the casing. A method for making the fuse assembly of this invention involves a series of die stamping steps to form the legs and fuse link from a continuous strip of fusible metal and mounting the legs and fuse link in the casing.

Abstract: A television receiver includes conventional circuitry for detecting the information components of a received television signal. A cathode ray tube viewing screen is scanned by horizontal and vertical scanning circuitry. Low level pincushion correction circuitry imposes a bow-tie signal upon the vertical scan signal forming a composite signal. A series connected vertical yoke has a first terminal coupled to a vertical deflection amplifier and a second terminal connected to ground. The composite signal applied produces vertical scan and pincushion correction currents in the yoke. A tank circuit, resonant at the horizontal scan frequency, is interposed between the vertical yoke windings and a pair of shunting capacitors are connected in parallel with each of the yoke windings and the tank circuit to reduce yoke impedance to the pincushion correction components of the composite signal.
