Abstract:
A capacitor housing includes an electrically conductive cup having a wall and a bottom, and an electrically insulating envelope which substantially covers an exterior of the cup and which includes an opening at a bottom of the cup. The opening is smaller than the bottom of the cup. The capacitor housing also includes a fill element which is substantially heat-conductive and disposed inside the opening and a cover element which is substantially electrically insulating, that covers at least part of the bottom of the cup and overlaps at least part of the envelope.
Abstract:
A fastening arrangement uses a fastening plate for fastening a component on a printed circuit board. The fastening plate has incisions that separate the direct connections between the printed circuit board fastening points and the component fastening points of the fastening plate. Over and above this, the invention is directed to the employment of the fastening plate. Due to the incisions in the fastening plate, a solder star electrolytic capacitor having high resistance to oscillation is obtained and can be advantageously utilized in the automotive sector.
Abstract:
An aluminum electrolytic capacitor assembly for use on a mounting plate includes an aluminum electrolytic capacitor fitted in a metallic housing which in places has insulation composed of shrink sleeving. The aluminum electrolytic capacitor assembly is intended for use on a mounting plate. The shrink sleeving extends into the vicinity of the cup base, and a plastic cap is arranged on the cup base for insulation.
Abstract:
An aluminum-electrolyte capacitor assembly is provided which includes a capacitor disposed in a metallic housing. The housing is accommodated and held by a ring clamp. The ring clamp is attached to a mounting plate, preferably by screw fasteners. The mounting plate includes a bore for accommodating at least part of the housing. The ring clamp includes a conically shaped extension that extends downward and mateably engages the bore. The assembly may also include a protective ring disposed in the bore and sandwiched between the conically shaped extension of the ring clamp and the mounting plate.
Abstract:
A terminal element for compensating length tolerances of electrical capacitors, particularly electrolyte capacitors, that are secured to busbars in capacitor batteries is fashioned as a straddling dowel. The terminal element is attached as a length-compensating element in a blind hole located in the capacitor terminal.
Abstract:
A mounting arrangement for mounting a component on a mounting plate has an elastic ring whose inside comprises a circumferential surface structure. The ring has two axial holes for fastening the ring on the mounting plate, and the ring has a radial slot that separates the ring between two end sections, so that the ring can be spread apart and then clamped around a component. The mounting arrangement is useful for mounting cylindrical components such as electrolytic capacitors that comprise a bead in the region of the floor on a mounting plate.
Abstract:
An electrolytic capacitor in an axial type of construction with a high oscillation load factor has connection strips respectively clamped between the winding and a cup base, or the winding and a disk, and wherein the cup base and a flanged seam of a wall of the cup are respectively welded to respective connecting plates.
Abstract:
An electrical component is installed in a metallic housing having a planar housing floor, in which the housing is pressed against a heat dissipation plate by means of screwable tension elements that are situated adjacent the housing wall. The tension elements have peaks at a portion that faces the housing wall. The housing has an indentation in the clamping region of the tension elements which serves as an aid to assembly, and the center line of the indentation is arranged higher prior to the fixing of the housing by means of the peak of the tension elements than subsequent thereto.
Abstract:
An electrochemical cell includes an electrode stack and a housing that is substantially cylindrical in shape and that holds the electrode stack. The housing has an indentation that forms a substantially flat contact area with the electrode stack. A method for producing the electrochemical cell includes inserting the electrode stack into the housing, bringing a die into contact with the housing, the die having a head with at least three contact points that come into contact with the housing, and stamping the die onto the housing to form the indentation.
Abstract:
A plate-like heat sink module with polygonal ground plan or shape has an upper side for securing a heat generating component and an underside comprises cooling ribs. The outside edges of the module have surface structure complementary with one another and with whose assistance a plurality of the identical heat sink modules can be joined in one plane, whereby the surface structures are fashioned so that a heat sink module can be joined to another heat sink module in only one orientation to form an arrangement of the heat sink modules. As a result of the arrangement of heat sink modules, a heat sink for the interconnection of a plurality of capacitors to form a capacitor bank can be produced in an especially flexible way.
