According to the fuse mounting structure, the guide device is arranged on the drawer, the guide device guides the drawer with fuse when the drawer enters the fuse base, there is no need to align the plug-in holes, which realizes blind insertion of fuses and reduces the workload of fuse insertion.

A terminal-securing auxiliary member includes a terminal securing portion which is to be fastened to a battery post and which is to be secured to a battery terminal, the battery post disposed at a post disposing portion of a battery, the battery having a portion of irregular height on an upper surface thereof in a circumferential edge of the post disposing portion, the battery terminal to which a battery-direct-attached type fuse unit is to be fastened; a battery joining portion which engages with the portion of the irregular height to restrict movement in a direction along the upper surface of the battery; and a connecting portion which connects the terminal securing portion and the battery joining portion.

A circuit protection assembly includes a mounting block, a unitary fuse assembly, a post assembly and a plug connector. The unitary fuse assembly is disposed the mounting block and includes a plurality of fuses each of which is defined by a portion of a bus plate disposed on the lower surface of the mounting block to form a first terminal of the fuse, a second terminal disposed at least partially on the upper surface of the mounting block and a fuse element connecting the first terminal and the second terminal. The post assembly is disposed at least partially within the mounting block and a post extending from the block. The plug connector extends from a portion of the first terminal of at least one of the plurality of fuses.

A busbar includes a plurality of main terminals (upstream side terminal, downstream side terminals) and one auxiliary terminal conductively connected to one of the main terminals and is press-formed in an integrated manner. The auxiliary terminal is connected to the main terminals through connection bars which are all cut off, except for one, in a cutting process after a pressing process, and the circuit configuration can be changed by selectively cutting off the connection bars. Therefore, there is no need to change the shape of a press die, and the production efficiency can be improved using a die having a uniform shape.

Fuse assemblies are disclosed. In one implementation, a fuse assembly may be disposed that includes a first portion of the second portion. The first portion may be formed of a first metal. The second portion may be formed of a second metal different from the first metal. The second metal may be copper, and the copper may be tin plated or silver plated.

A fuse unit includes: a fusible link which is connected to a battery terminal and of which a fuse is fused when overcurrent flows therein; and a holding mechanism including a base portion that is interposed between a post-standing surface and the battery terminal in a state in which the battery terminal is fastened to a battery post provided on the post-standing surface of a battery housing, and a holding portion that is connected to the base portion and holds the fusible link on the post-standing surface. Accordingly, a load acting on the battery post can be suppressed.

The present invention provides a multiple fuse device that is compatible with various ratings and reduces an increase in manufacturing cost. A multiple fuse device includes an input terminal, an external terminal, a bus bar that includes a circuit portion disposed between the input terminal and the external terminal, and a housing that covers the bus bar. The external terminal includes an integral external terminal integrated with the circuit portion with a fusible portion interposed between the integral external terminal and the circuit portion, and a fuse-side external terminal that pairs up with a fuse connection terminal connected to the circuit portion. The fuse connection terminal and the fuse-side external terminal provided in a pair hold a fuse exteriorly in a removable manner, the fuse having a fusible portion connected between the fuse connection terminal and the fuse-side external terminal.

An electric connection block is provided with a bus bar formed from a press-formed product of a metal plate member and a resin-made housing insert molded integrally with the bus bar. The bus bar is provided with a flat plate-shaped main plate part and a standing terminal erected by bending a base end connected to a portion of the main plate part relative to the main plate part. The electric connection block is manufactured by insert molding the housing integrally with the bus bar in a before-bending state where the standing terminal is located on the same plane as the main plate part, and bending the base end of the standing terminal to thereby erect the standing terminal relative to the main plate part after the insert molding of the housing.

A fuse module including an battery clamp, a fuse assembly including a mounting block, a bus bar on a first side of the mounting block in contact with the battery clamp, fuse terminals on a second side of the mounting block connected to the bus bar by fusible elements, and a terminal post extending through one of the fuse terminals for facilitating electrical connection to a first electrical component, the fuse module further including a mounting cradle holding the fuse assembly and the battery clamp, the mounting cradle including a mounting post extending through the battery clamp, the bus bar, the mounting block, and one of the fuse terminals for facilitating connection to a second electrical component and for securing the fuse module components together, wherein the mounting post is surrounded by a tubular sleeve extending between the bus bar and the fuse terminal through which the mounting post extends.

A protection device comprises a first planar substrate, a second planar substrate, a heating element, a fusible element and an absorbent element. The first substrate comprises a first surface, and the second substrate comprises a second surface facing the first surface. The heating element is disposed on the first surface, and the fusible element is disposed above the heating element. The absorbent element is disposed on the second surface and above the fusible element. When over-current or over-temperature occurs, the heating element heats up to melt and blow the fusible element and the absorbent element absorbs melted metal of the fusible element.
