Fuse assembly with a capability of indicating a fusing state by light
First Claim

1. A fuse assembly comprising;
- a fuse body formed therein with an accommodating space, a side surface of the fuse body being provided with an accommodating hole;
two conductive terminals accommodated in the accommodating space of the fuse body, an elastic contacting arm being formed on a side surface of each conductive terminal; and
a light-emitting diode inserted into the accommodating hole of the fuse body to be disposed on the two elastic contacting arms, as the two contacting arms are elastic when the light-emitting diode is disposed in the accommodating hole the two contacting arms can be bent slightly to sandwich the light-emitting diode between a top surface of the fuse body and the contacting arms so that a top surface of the light-emitting diode abuts the underside of the top surface of the fuse body, thereby electrically connecting the light-emitting diode to the two conductive terminals.

Abstract
A fuse assembly capable of indicating whether the fuse is blown or not includes a fuse body formed therein with an accommodating space. The accommodating space is provided with two conductive terminals connected to each other via a metallic fuse. A light-emitting diode is inserted into an accommodating hole of the fuse body, thereby electrically connecting two electrodes of the light-emitting diode to the two conductive terminals. By the above arrangement, the light-emitting diode can be lighted up when the fuse body is blown.
