20100156589 | Resistor and method for making a resistor - A resistor having a body, a fuse component, a resistor component, a wire and a cover. The body has a top, a first positioning hole and a second positioning hole being formed in the top of the body. The fuse component is inserted in the first positioning hole. The resistor component is inserted in the second positioning hole. The wire connects the fuse component and the resistor component and is mounted outside the body. The cover is attached to the top of the body around the wire. Therefore, the body of resistor as described may be dried in an oven without damaging the resistor component. A method having steps of forming a body having two positioning holes, drying the body in an oven heated above 130° C., mounting a resistor component and a fuse component respectively in the positioning holes, and covering the positioning holes with an insulating cover. | 06-24-2010 |
