PROTECTIVE ELEMENT AND SECONDARY BATTERY DEVICE
First Claim
1. A protection element comprising:
- a soluble conductor which is disposed on an insulation baseboard, which is connected to a power supply path of a device targeted to be protected, and which causes a blowout when a predetermined abnormal electric power amount is supplied;
an insulation cover member which is mounted on the baseboard, and which covers the soluble conductor with a predetermined space; and
a flux coated on a surface of the soluble conductor and positioned in the space;
wherein, in a case where the abnormal electric power amount is supplied to the device targeted to be protected, the soluble conductor causes the blowout, and a current path thereof is shut off; and
wherein said protection element comprises a stepped portion which is formed on an interior face of the insulation cover member opposite to the soluble conductor, for retaining the flux at a predetermined position in the space in contact with the flux.

Abstract
A protection element and a secondary battery device employing the protection element are provided for stably retaining a flux on a soluble conductor at a predetermined position, so as to enable appropriate blowout of the soluble conductor in the event of an abnormality. The protection element has a soluble conductor which is disposed on an insulation baseboard, and which is connected to a power supply path of a device targeted to be protected, and which causes a blowout when a predetermined abnormal electric power, amount is supplied. A flux is coated on a surface of the soluble conductor, and an insulation cover member is mounted on the baseboard and covers the soluble conductor. The protection element also includes a stepped portion for retaining the flux at a predetermined position in contact with the flux, and the stepped portion is formed opposite to the soluble conductor on an interior face of the insulation cover member.
