A fuse and a production method therefor. The fuse includes upper and lower insulating layers provided with terminal electrodes, and a fuse element between the upper and lower insulating layers. The fuse further includes a functional layer provided between the fuse element and the insulating layers. The functional layer includes a substrate and an arc extinguishing material uniformly or substantially uniformly distributed in the substrate; the arc extinguishing material includes a sealed cavity; the substrate includes low temperature co-fired ceramic powder, aerosol silicon oxide, silicon oxide, inert resin, phosphoric acid, and phosphate ester polyester; the content of the arc extinguishing material is 1-50 wt %. The fuse overcomes the shortcomings of phenomena such as deformation, bending, and defects occurring to a fuse element caused by the shrinkage mismatch of the fuse element with a buffer layer and an arc extinguishing layer in a sintering process.

A fuse element assembly has been disclosed. The fuse element assembly includes a fuse element having a pair of side edges and at least one weak spot between the side edges. The fuse element assembly also includes an arc-quenching material attached locally to the fuse element adjacent the weak spot.

A power fuse for protecting an electrical load subject to transient load current cycling events in a direct current electrical power system is provided. The power fuse includes at least one fuse element assembly that includes an elongated planar substrate, a plurality of fusible weak spots, and a conductor. The weak spots are formed on the substrate and are longitudinally spaced from one another on the substrate. The conductor is separately provided from the substrate and the weak spots. The conductor includes a solid elongated strip of metal having no stamped weak spot openings therein and therefore avoiding thermal-mechanical fatigue strain in the conductor when subjected to the transient load current cycling events. The solid elongated strip of metal includes coplanar connector sections that are mounted to respective ones of the weak spots and obliquely extending sections bent out of plane of the connector sections to extend above the substrate.

A electric circuit breaker device includes: a housing; a part to be cut that is placed inside the housing and forms a part of an electric circuit; and a power source P placed on the side of a first end part of the housing, the electric circuit breaker device further includes a moving body that includes a first arc-extinguishing space X1 in which the part to be cut is inserted and housed, and which is filled with an arc-extinguishing material M, wherein the housing includes a moving body housing part that allows the moving body to move between the first end part and a second end part opposite to the first end part, the moving body is configured to cut the part to be cut housed in the first arc-extinguishing space X1 of the moving body while moving from the first end part toward the second end part by the power source P, and the housing includes an expanded arc-extinguishing space X2 positioned so as to face an end part of a separable piece of the part to be cut that is cut off and separated, when the moving body has moved and stopped, and the expanded arc-extinguishing space X2 being filled with an arc-extinguishing material M.

Disclosed are various protection devices and associated methods. In some embodiments, a protection device may include a substrate and a fusible element coupled to the substrate, wherein the fusible element may include a first end opposite a second end, and wherein the first and second ends wrap around the substrate. The fusible element may further include a central section comprising a plurality of segments connected end-to-end in a continuous arrangement between the first and second ends, wherein a first set of segments of the plurality of segments extends along a first plane, and wherein a second set of segments of the plurality of segments extends along a second plane, different than the first plane.

The present invention relates to a high breaking capacity strip fuse, comprising an insulating housing and a fusing element. The fusing element includes a fusible part, a first connecting terminal and a second connecting terminal which are arranged at two ends of the fusible part and are integrally connected with the fusible part; the fusible part is fixed in the sealed cavity of the housing, and the sealed cavity is filled with insulating material. The present invention provides a fuse filling with insulating material, such as Silicone, quartz sand, resin, ceramic powder/ceramic sand, steatite powder/steatite sand, or saponite powder/saponite granules, in the sealed cavity, to solve the problem of causing the air to ionize and triggering arcing phenomenon of existing fuse during overload.

This protection element (100) has a fuse element (3), an insulating inorganic fibrous material (4) that is disposed in contact with or close to at least a part of the fuse element (3), and a case member (5) configured to enclose a part of the fuse element (3) and the insulating inorganic fibrous material (4).

An electrical fuse is provided. The electrical fuse includes a short circuit fusible element and a trigger element connected in series with the short circuit fusible element. The trigger element is chemically activated rather than mechanically activated to interrupt a predefined overload condition with a predetermined time delay.

A high-voltage direct-current thermal fuse includes one or more fusible components each having two fusible alloy support arms, a fluxing agent, a fusing cavity, two pins, and an insulation block. Two fusible alloy support arms are arranged opposite, and the fusible component is U-shaped. The fusible component and the fluxing agent are sealed within the fusing cavity. The two pins are respectively connected to the two fusible alloy support arms. The insulation block is arranged between the two fusible alloy support arms and separates the two pins. A volume ratio of the fluxing agent to the fusing cavity is approximately 50% or less, preferably, 10%-50%. The number of the one or more fusible components is at least two, and the at least two fusible components are arranged separately. The thermal fuse can avoid the burst and quickly cut off the current, which provides effective thermal protection for a circuit.
