A fuse includes a fuse body, two terminals, and a termination reinforcement. The fuse body surrounds a fusible element. The first terminal is located at one end of the fuse body and the second terminal is located at the other end of the fuse body. The fusible element is mechanically connected to the first and second terminals. The termination reinforcement is located at one end of the fuse body.

A fuse including a fuse body defining an inner cavity and having at least one fuse body aperture formed therethrough, a fuse element including a first terminal and a second terminal, a first endbell and a second endbell coupled to the fuse element, the first endbell having at least two grooves formed in a surface thereof and having a first O-ring seal disposed in at least one of the grooves, the second endbell having at least two grooves formed in a surface thereof and having a second O-ring seal disposed in at least one of the grooves, an adhesive securing the first and second endbells to the fuse body, an arc quenching material disposed within the inner cavity and contacting at least a portion of the fuse element, and end caps coupled to the fuse body, the end caps sealing a portion of the fuse element within the fuse body.

Embodiments of the fuse include a fuse body having a first end and a second end. A fuse element is disposed within a cavity of the fuse body, an end of the fuse element extending beyond an edge of the fuse body. An arc disc is disposed on the edge of the fuse body, and includes a notch such that the end of the fuse element extends to an outer surface of the arc disc. The end of the fuse element is configured to be folded over the outer surface of the arc disc. An end cap is disposed over the end of the fuse body and the arc disc, and the end cap includes a hole at a top surface. Solder deposited within the hole provides an electrical connection between the arc disc, the fuse element, and the end cap.

The invention provides a fuse that has a simple structure without having a flap included in a conventional fuse but can prevent a terminal of a different fuse from entering from an opening of an insulating housing. A fuse includes a pair of conductive terminals (10), a fuse element (30) including a fusing part (20) provided between the conductive terminals (10), and an insulating housing (40) covering the fusing part (20) and at least part of the conductive terminals (10) and having an open bottom end. The insulating housing (40) has an open end (50) provided, on an inner wall surface thereof, with a projection (60).

Provided herein are protection devices, such as fuses, including a set of trenches or pockets for retention of solder therein. In some embodiments, a fuse includes a body including a center portion extending between a first and second end portions. The first end portion includes a first trench formed in a first end surface, and the second end portion includes a second trench formed in a second end surface. The fuse may further include a first and second endcaps surrounding respective first and second end portions. The fuse may include a fusible element disposed within a central cavity of the body, the fusible element extending between the first end surface and the second end surface. In some embodiments, solder may be disposed within the first trench and the second trench, wherein the solder is in contact with the fusible element, the first endcap, or the second endcap.
