  • Patent number: 3981075
    Abstract: A method for making a heavy duty PTC resistor with a pressed and sintered hollow cylindrical body of a ceramic composition which has two end faces in a radial plane with a connection contact on each end face.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 3967229
    Abstract: A heavy duty PTC resistor with a pressed and sintered hollow cylindrical body of a ceramic composition which has two end faces in a radial plane with a connection contact on each end face.A heavy duty PTC resistor sintered body of a ceramic composition which has two end-faces carrying a connection contact; the invention also concerns a method of manufacturing such PTC-resistor.High duty PTC-resistors are required for some purposes. If for example a PTC-resistor is used as a starting device for a single-phase motor, it has to be designed to deal with almost the entire mains voltage and to carry power of 500 W or more. The usual cylindrical bodies, provided at their two end-faces with connection contacts, frequently exhibit cracks under loads of this kind.A high-duty PTC-resistor is thus known (German Patent Specification OS 1 465 349) which is made up of a stack of solid or hollow flat cylindrical discs, the end-faces of the superposed discs being interconncted by a contact layer.
