Fusible link unit
View Patent ↗A fusible link unit includes a conductive busbar, a resin housing, and a resin cover. The conductive busbar includes a fusible part. The resin housing is integrally formed at a predetermined position of the busbar. The resin cover is locked so as to cover an exposure window of the resin housing which is formed so that the fusible part is observed. The resin housing has an integral wall at the back position of the exposure window which faces the fusible part.
1. A fusible link unit comprising:
a conductive busbar comprising a fusible part;
a first resin housing and a second resin housing, each of the resin housings integrally formed at predetermined positions along the busbar; and
a transparent cover,
wherein the first resin housing comprises:
an exposure window inside which the fusible part is provided; and
a non-transparent wall provided at a back position of the exposure window, the first resin housing being formed as a one piece structure including the non-transparent wall and the non-transparent wall facing the fusible part,
wherein the exposure window and the non-transparent wall define slits at both sides of the first resin housing such that the slits extend through the first resin housing,
wherein the transparent resin cover covers at least a front position opposite to the back position of the exposure window, the fusible part provided between the front and back positions and housed in the exposure window being observable through the transparent resin cover, and wherein a length of the non-transparent wall in a direction perpendicular to the slits extending through the first resin housing and a length of each slit in the direction are substantially equal.
2. The fusible link unit according to claim 1 , wherein
the transparent resin cover comprises:
a cover body; and
lock projections protruding from opposite sides of the cover body of the resin cover, and
wherein the lock projections are inserted into the slits.
