A vertical surface mount device pass-through fuse including an electrically insulating fuse body, a fusible element disposed on a first side of the fuse body and extending between first and second terminals, an electrically insulating cap having a domed portion and a flanged portion extending from the domed portion, the domed portion disposed over the fusible element, and the flanged portion affixed to the fuse body, and a conductive lead frame having a bow portion and an elongate shank portion extending from the bow portion, wherein the bow portion is disposed on the cap and is connected to the first terminal, and wherein the shank portion extends away from the fuse body.

The invention relates to a circuit board arrangement for electrical separation of leads, comprising a fuse board configured to hold an electrical fuse, wherein the fuse board has electrical leads and openings formed between adjacent electrical leads; and comprising an insulating member configured to receive the fuse board, wherein the insulating member has separators, wherein the separators are configured to insert into the openings and electrically separate the leads.

A fuse holder includes a holder base comprising a plurality of protrusions each having a mounting hole formed therein to provide for mounting of the holder base to an external component and one or more mating protrusions and one or more mating slots formed on each of opposing side surfaces. The fuse holder also includes an input stud coupled to or formed on the holder base and a cover configured to attach to the holder base to at least partially enclose one or more fuses positionable on the fuse holder. The one or more mating protrusions and the one or more mating slots formed on each of the opposing side surfaces of the holder base comprise dovetailed protrusions and slots of a matching profile capable of receiving such a dovetailed protrusion, so as to enable a side-by-side stacking and interlocking of fuse holders with such mating protrusions and mating slots.

Provided is an electrical connection box in which a greater number of fuses can be inserted while suppressing an increase in size. An electrical connection box for a vehicle includes: an insertion housing that has a rectangular open port on one side and in which a plurality of rectangular insertion holes into which fuses are to be respectively inserted are provided facing the open port; a first insertion hole row in which a plurality of the insertion holes are provided side by side in a lengthwise direction of the open port, with long sides of the insertion holes adjacent to each other; and a second insertion hole row in which a plurality of the insertion holes are provided side by side in the lengthwise direction of the open port, with short sides of the insertion holes adjacent to each other.

A fuse housing assembly and a fuse kit are provided. The fuse housing assembly and the fuse kit are configured to allow for fuses having terminals of different sizes to be mounted onto a circuit board. The fuse housing assembly and the fuse kit include a spacer configured to protect the exposed portions of the fuse terminals from the environment and prevent the proximal ends of the fuse terminals from breaking the fuse elements. Further, the spacer retains the fuse body of the respective fuses and the fuse terminals in a fixed position relative to each other so as to prevent the fuse terminals from being bent.

The invention relates to a circuit board arrangement for electrical separation of leads, comprising a fuse board configured to hold an electrical fuse, wherein the fuse board has electrical leads and openings formed between adjacent electrical leads; and comprising an insulating member configured to receive the fuse board, wherein the insulating member has separators, wherein the separators are configured to insert into the openings and electrically separate the leads

This device consists of a housing (1) made of electrically insulating material, in which a fuse (6) is provided with at least one main fuse wire (7) located in its cavity. The main fuse wire (7) is electrically conductively connected at one end to at least one connecting pin (2) which is led out of the housing (1) and at the other end it is electrically conductively connected to at least one terminal (3) located in at least one cavity (4) formed in the housing (1). The shape of the connecting pin (2) is adapted for connection to the protected device.

A fuse holder includes a holder base comprising a plurality of protrusions each having a mounting hole formed therein to provide for mounting of the holder base to an external component and one or more mating protrusions and one or more mating slots formed on each of opposing side surfaces. The fuse holder also includes an input stud coupled to or formed on the holder base and a cover configured to attach to the holder base to at least partially enclose one or more fuses positionable on the fuse holder. The one or more mating protrusions and the one or more mating slots formed on each of the opposing side surfaces of the holder base comprise dovetailed protrusions and slots of a matching profile capable of receiving such a dovetailed protrusion, so as to enable a side-by-side stacking and interlocking of fuse holders with such mating protrusions and mating slots.
