ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a fusible link unit which is capable of being directly connected to a battery, and which includes: a band plate portion integrally formed in a bus bar; two fuse circuit-forming members contiguously formed respectively to two sides of the band plate portion; and bodies each including an electrically insulating housing formed onto a corresponding one of the fuse circuit-forming members by insert molding. Flanges as long as the entire width of the band plate portion are formed respectively in two end edges of the band plate portion by bending the flanges from the two end edges in the plate thickness direction. The bodies are arranged side-by-side with a clearance equal to the width of the band plate portion by bending the bodies along the two side edges of the band plate portion in the same direction.
