  • Patent number: 8576041
    Abstract: Radial fuses for protecting an electrical circuit include a nonconductive base provided with inverted flat faces sloped obliquely relative to one another that define a wider receiving area for installation of a fuse element. Restricted freedom of movement of the fuse element is accomplished, and greater fuse reliability is ensured.

  • Patent number: 8203420
    Abstract: Subminiature surface mount chip fuses include two part housings enclosing a fuse element and prefabricated end caps. The housing ends are shaped to restrict freedom of movement of the fuse element ends as the end caps are assembled to the housing. The end caps may include features to positively secure them in place and restrict relative movement of the end caps relative to the housing. Holes may be provided in the end caps that allow solder flow from a location exterior to the end caps to flow interior to the end caps to establish electrical connection with the fuse element.
