    摘要: An overcurrent protection device includes a first input terminal, a second input terminal, a first output terminal, a second output terminal, a breaker, a current sensor, and a comparator. A positive terminal and a negative terminal of a power source are connected to the first input terminal and the second input terminal. The second output terminal is connected to the second input terminal. The breaker includes a switch connected between the first input terminal and the first output terminal and opening upon reception of an interrupt command signal. The current sensor measures a difference between a current flowing between the first input terminal and the first output terminal, and a current flowing between the second input terminal and the second output terminal. The comparator sends the interrupt command signal to the breaker when a measurement value of the current sensor exceeds a first current threshold value.

    摘要: A conductive member module has a pair of conductive members formed in a plate shape and facing each other, and a sealing part for sealing the pair of conductive members. The conductive member module is produced by performing an accommodation step, a sealing step, and an extraction step. In the sealing step, the conductive members are sealed with a resin injected into a die while a force is applied by the resin to the individual conductive members in directions to approach each other in a facing orientation of the pair of conductive members.

    摘要: A conductive member module has a pair of conductive members formed in a plate shape and facing each other, and a sealing part. The conductive member module is produced by performing an accommodation step, a sealing step, and an extraction step. In the accommodation step, the two individual conductive members are sandwiched in the facing orientation thereof by outer support members abutting outer surfaces of the conductive members, and inner support members abutting inner surfaces of the conductive members. Outer recesses are formed in the outer surfaces by the outer support members, and inner recesses are formed in the inner surfaces by the inner support members. The outer recesses are deeper in the Z direction than the inner recesses.
