<p>The subject matter of the invention is a thermal overload protection apparatus (22) for protection of an electrical component (10), in particular an electronic component, wherein the overload protection apparatus (22) has a short-circuiting device (24) for short-circuiting connections (12, 14) of the component (10), and a tripping element (26) which trips the short-circuiting device (24) on a thermally sensitive basis. According to the invention, the short-circuiting device (24) is mounted with at least one area (28) on a conductor track mount (16), and is supported by at least one further area (30) via the tripping element (26) on the component (10) which is arranged on the conductor track mount (16), and/or at least one conductor track (18, 20) which makes contact with one of the connections (12, 14) to be short-circuited. The invention also relates to a corresponding arrangement (36) having a conductor track mount (16), at least one component (10) arranged thereon, and at least one associated overload protection apparatus (22).</p> |
