When a current that is larger than the deterioration characteristics of the main fuse 21 and smaller than its fusing characteristics flows through the circuit, the main fuse 21 does not blow, but deteriorates. At this time, since the fusing characteristic of the deterioration detection fuse 22 is set to be lower than the deterioration characteristic of the main fuse, the deterioration detection fuse 22 immediately blows out. The contact 23 becomes conductive when the deterioration detection fuse 22 melts, and electrically detects deterioration of the main fuse 21.

In the conventional example shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, only the blowout of the fuse element could be detected using a single fuse. As a result, there has been a problem in that the fuse suddenly blows out due to deterioration of the fuse element, causing power outage and inconvenience in factories and the like. Furthermore, in order to prevent sudden power outages, all fuses must be replaced periodically regardless of the deterioration of the fuse elements, which is costly.

1 to 3, inside a casing 6 of a fuse 100, a plurality of fuse elements 1, which are blown by a shear current, are arranged in parallel. Further, a fusible part 2a and a shape memory alloy part 2 are electrically connected in parallel with the fuse element 1.
A detection element 2 is provided which has b. One end of the detection element 2 is fixed to one conductive cap 6a of the housing 6, and the display element (display bar) 3 is connected to the other end. The shape memory alloy part 2b of the detection element 2 is as shown in Fig. 1 at low temperature (at room temperature).
It is manufactured so that it shows a contracted state as shown in FIG. 2, and an expanded state as shown in FIG. 2 at high temperatures (when heat is generated due to deterioration of the fuse element 1). The display element 3 is a compression spring 4
It is movably held in a display element case 6c provided on the other conductive cap 6b of the housing 6 via the display element case 6c. In a normal state in which the fuse element 1 is neither blown nor deteriorated, the display element 3 compresses the compression spring 4 and its tip 3a is retracted into the housing 6, as shown in FIG.

When a current flows through the fuse 100 at a level lower than the blown current level but greater than the deterioration characteristics of the fuse element 1 when the fuse element 1 blows, the fuse element 1 deteriorates and generates heat accordingly. . This heat generation causes the shape memory alloy portion 2b of the detection element 2 to deform so as to extend in the direction in which the fuse elements 1 are arranged. This state is shown in FIG. At this time, the distal end portion 3a of the display element 3 connected to the detection element 2 protrudes outward from the conductive cap 6b of the housing 6 due to the deformation of the shape memory alloy portion 2b and the biasing force of the compression spring 4. Here, the amount of deformation of the shape memory alloy portion 2b is made shorter than the full stroke that the display element 3 can move within the display element case 6c. As a result, when the fuse element 1 deteriorates, the tip 3a of the display element 3 protrudes to the outside of the casing 6, but it does not protrude completely, so it can be distinguished from the case where the fuse element 1 is blown. .

Next, when a ruptured current flows through the fuse 100, the fuse element 1 is first blown by the ruptured current. Subsequently, the shear current flows to the detection element 2, so that the fusible portion 2a of the detection element 2 is fused. When the fusible portion 2a is fused, the distal end portion 3a of the display element 3 completely protrudes outside the conductive cap 6b of the housing 6 due to the biasing force of the compression spring 4. As a result, blowing of the fuse element 1 is detected.
