<p>An automotive blade-type fuse has an enlarged transparent extraction flange. The flange is configured as a thin-wall structure having a cavity therein running substantially its entire length. The fuse terminal blades are captively secured in a housing to extend from the bottom thereof and have narrow extensions at the outer edges of the blades which extend upwardly into the flange cavity. A fuse link extends between the blade extensions within the cavity and at a stand-off distance from the interior walls of the cavity. The fuse housing is preferably of identical half-shell construction having lengthwiserunning centering ribs and associated mating recesses to facilitate assembly.</p> |
