Patent ID: 11842875

Abstract:
Provided are approaches for integrating solenoids and fuses within a compact housing. In one approach, a fuse apparatus (100) may include a housing (102) including a main body (104), a cover (106) coupled to a first side (110) of the main body (104), and a base (112) coupled to a second side (116) of the main body (104), wherein the cover (106) and the main body (104) define a fuse cavity (120), and wherein the base (112) and the main body (104) define a main cavity. (122) The fuse apparatus (100) may further include a plurality of fuses (124) disposed within the fuse cavity (120), and a plurality of solenoids (130) electrically connected to a printed circuit board (PCB) (132), wherein the plurality of fuses (124) is disposed above the PCB (132), and wherein the PCB (132) is positioned within the main cavity (122).
