When using, do not connect the positive and negative poles in reverse. In modern society, electrical equipment is used more and more widely, and a large number of capacitors are needed in the production of electrical appliances.

When the temperature of the electrolytic capacitor body 3 is high and it expands itself, the ventilation mechanism 44 is squeezed and exposed from the sealing ring 43 to increase the air flow rate. At this time, the circulation mechanism 42 is used to protect the electrolytic capacitor body 3 all around, and can also ventilate the entire electrolytic capacitor body 3 all around, so as to facilitate the circulation of air and cool down the outer surface of the electrolytic capacitor body 3.

[0032] See also Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the circulation mechanism 42 includes a fastening ring 421, the inner cavity of the fastening ring 421 is inserted with a first connecting rod 422, the outer surface of the fastening ring 421 is provided with a connecting hole 423, the fastening ring 421 is fixedly connected through the first connecting rod 422, the first connecting rod 422 and the connecting hole 423 are arranged alternately, the fastening ring 421 is tightly fitted with the outer surface of the electrolytic capacitor body 3, and the ventilation mechanism 44 includes a fixing ring 441, the inner cavity of the fixing ring 441 is inserted with a ventilation rod 442, and the ventilation rod 442 is close to the electrolytic capacitor body 3.

One end of the disk 443 is flush with the outer surface of the sealing ring 43, and the ventilation groove 445 on the ventilation rod 442 is not exposed. The sealing ring 43 is fixed to the inner wall of the protective shell 41. When in use, the position of the sealing ring 43 on the ventilation rod 442 can be adjusted. When the ventilation groove 445 is not exposed to the outside, the electrolytic capacitor body 3 has good airtightness as a whole. Of course, the sealing ring 43 can be adjusted to a suitable position so that the ventilation groove 445 is exposed outside the sealing ring 43, which is convenient for ventilation of the electrolytic capacitor body 3. When the sealing ring 43 is fixed in position on the inner wall of the protective shell 41, the expansion caused by the high temperature of the electrolytic capacitor body 3 can drive the pressure plate 443 to squeeze the spring 444 to move the ventilation rod 442 in the inner cavity of the fixing ring 441, so that the ventilation groove 445 is more exposed, thereby increasing the ventilation of the outer surface of the electrolytic capacitor body 3, and the wind can circulate through the connecting hole 423 on the fastening ring 421, so that the air can flow around the electrolytic capacitor body 3 to quickly cool down the electrolytic capacitor body 3, thereby increasing the service life of the electrolytic capacitor body 3.

[0033] Embodiment 2

[0034] See also Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the protective component 5 includes a connecting seat 51, and a fixing seat 52 is fixedly installed at one end of the connecting seat 51 away from the electrolytic capacitor body 3. A second connecting rod 53 is inserted into the inner cavity of the fixing seat 52, and a connecting strip 54 is sleeved on the outer surface of the second connecting rod 53. A card slot 55 is opened at one end of the connecting strip 54 away from the fixing seat 52, and the inner cavity of the card slot 55 is engaged with the second connecting rod 53. A sleeve 56 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting seat 51 away from the electrolytic capacitor body 3, and expansion joints 57 are arranged at both ends of the sleeve 56. The sleeve 56 is away from One end of the connecting seat 51 is fixedly connected to a top seat 58, a side of the top seat 58 close to the connecting seat 51 is fixedly installed with a fixing seat 52, a button 59 is provided on the outer surface of the top seat 58, a side of the top seat 58 away from the button 59 is fixedly installed with a fault light 510, and a fixing block 511 is fixedly installed at one end of the sleeve 56 close to the button 59, the button 59 and the fault light 510 are electrically connected, and the pressing of the button 59 controls the fault light 510 to give a warning, the button 59 and the fixing block 511 are located in the same straight line, and the connecting seat 51 is fixed on the protective The inner wall of the shell 41 is in close contact with the outer surface of the electrolytic capacitor body 3. When the electrolytic capacitor body 3 explodes, under the fastening of the circulation mechanism 42 and the flexible blocking of the ventilation mechanism 44, the exploded electrolyte enters the sleeve 56 from the connecting seat 51, so that the expansion joint 57 moves toward the top seat 58. At this time, the movement of the sleeve 56 drives the fixed block 511 to move, and the movement of the fixed block 511 causes the fixed block 511 to squeeze the button 59. At this time, the button 59 controls the fault light 510 to warn, which is convenient for maintenance personnel to quickly find it. The second connecting rod 53 and the card slot 55 are connected by the card engagement to facilitate the rapid disassembly of the top seat 58 and observe the damage of the electrolytic capacitor body 3. There is a certain flexible force between the expansion joints 57, which cooperates with the protection of the circulation mechanism 42 to cause the splashing electrolyte to cause the deformation of the sleeve 56, further preventing the electrolyte from splashing out, and reducing the radial deformation of the electrolytic capacitor body 3. It is avoided that the electrolytic capacitor body 3 expands and squeezes the nearby gas electronic components, further ensuring the safety of other electrical components on the patch 1 and reducing the maintenance cost.

[0035] To sum up, when the temperature of the electrolytic capacitor body 3 is high and it expands itself, the ventilation mechanism 44 is squeezed and exposed from the sealing ring 43 to increase the air flow rate, which is enough to ventilate the entire surrounding of the electrolytic capacitor body 3 to facilitate air circulation and cool down the outer surface of the electrolytic capacitor body 3. The position of the sealing ring 43 on the ventilation rod 442 can be adjusted. When the ventilation groove 445 is not exposed to the outside, the electrolytic capacitor body 3 has good airtightness as a whole. Of course, the sealing ring 43 can be adjusted to a suitable position so that the ventilation groove 445 is exposed on the outside of the sealing ring 43 to facilitate ventilation of the electrolytic capacitor body 3. The expansion caused by the high temperature of the electrolytic capacitor body 3 can drive the pressure plate The 443 extrusion spring 444 causes the ventilation rod 442 to move in the inner cavity of the fixed ring 441, so that the ventilation groove 445 is more exposed, thereby increasing the ventilation of the outer surface of the electrolytic capacitor body 3 and increasing the service life of the electrolytic capacitor body 3. When the electrolytic capacitor body 3 explodes, under the fastening of the circulation mechanism 42 and the flexible blocking of the ventilation mechanism 44, the exploded electrolyte enters the sleeve 56 from the connecting seat 51, causing the expansion joint 57 to move toward the top seat 58 to prevent the electrolyte from exploding and causing damage to surrounding components. At this time, the movement of the sleeve 56 causes the fixed block 511 to squeeze the button 59, and the button 59 controls the fault light 510 to warn, which is convenient for maintenance personnel to quickly find it.
