A valve drive device for an internal combustion engine is disclosed.

The invention relates to a melting fuse, especially for a motor vehicle that has a high-voltage circuit, comprising an electrically insulating housing inside of which there is a fusible conductor that connects two contacts with each other, whereby, between two longitudinal areas that are adjacent to each other, the fusible conductor has a rotation point around which the longitudinal areas can be rotated in case of a thermo-mechanical expansion.
