Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A cable is provided and includes a first conductor, a second conductor, and a PTC material layer. The PTC material layer is directly bonded to and electrically connects the first conductor and the second conductor.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method of manufacturing a circuit protection device, comprising steps of: forming a cable, comprising steps of: providing a first conductor; providing a second conductor separate from the first conductor; and extruding a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) material layer on the first conductor and the second conductor; cutting a segment of the cable, the segment having a first end and a second end; and removing a portion of the PTC material layer from the second end to expose a portion of the first conductor and a portion of the second conductor, wherein the exposed portion of the first conductor, the exposed portion of the second conductor, and the PTC material layer are electrically in series with one another. 2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first conductor and the second conductor are electrically connected to each other using the PTC material layer. 3. The method according to claim 1 , comprising a further step of forming an outer insulation layer on the PTC material layer.
