Protective device
First Claim
1. A protection device comprising:
- (i) a protection component comprising a first thermal fuse and a resistive body wherein in an abnormal state the resistive body is supplied with a current to generate heat, and by the heat the first thermal fuse activates to cut off the current;
(ii) a PTC component; and
(iii) a second thermal fuse,wherein the second thermal fuse is electrically connected to the PTC component in series,the first thermal fuse of the protection component is electrically connected to the PTC component and to the second thermal fuse in parallel, andby activating the protection component in the abnormal state, the PTC component trips to generate heat, and the heat fuses the second thermal fuse;
wherein an activating time of the PTC component is longer than an insulation time of a fuse element of the first thermal fuse.

Abstract
A protection device including: (i) a protection component having a first thermal fuse and a resistive body, the resistive body being supplied with a current in an abnormal state to generate heat, the heat activating the first thermal fuse to cut off the current; (ii) a PTC component; and (iii) a second thermal fuse, the second thermal fuse being electrically connected in series to the PTC component, the first thermal fuse of the protection component being electrically connected in parallel to the PTC component and to the second thermal fuse, and the protection component being activated in the abnormal state so that the PTC component trips to generate heat, the heat blowing the second thermal fuse.
