a) Field of the Disclosure
The invention relates to an improvement of a miniature fuse device used in an electronic industry such that the improved miniature fuse device can be provided with a cover free from dropping off.
b) Brief Description of the Related Art
A miniature fuse device in accordance with the present invention is used in an electronic industry and has a round or rectangle shape.
The present invention provides a main objective to solve the current miniature fuse device having the deficient joint, between the cover and the body, leading the cover to fall off and the fuse device to be broken.
The invention is directed to a structure of positioning a cover of a miniature fuse device, having a rectangle shape, mainly composed of a body and a cover. Two wires at a bottom of the body extend upwards to form leads at a top of the body to be connected with a fuse. The invention provides an improvement that locking bumps are set at two sides of the body of the miniature fuse device and locking holes are set at two sides of the cover. When the body is received in the cover, the locking bumps of the body fix with the locking holes at the cover such that the cover can firmly join the body. Accordingly, the cover can be prevented from falling off due to improper external forces when the miniature fuse device is being transferred or stored.
