[0036] refer to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the utility model discloses a capacitor, comprising a capacitor housing 1, a capacitor core 2, a packaging material 3, a first bus bar 4 and a second bus bar 5;

[0037] The capacitor core 2 is arranged in the capacitor housing 1;

[0038] The packaging material 3 is filled in the capacitor housing 1;

[0039] The first busbar 4 and the second busbar 5 are both buried in the packaging material 3 and overlapped on both end surfaces of the capacitor core 2 respectively; the first busbar 4 and the second busbar 5 are respectively provided with a first connection terminal 411 and a second connection terminal 511 exposed in the packaging material 3;

[0040] At least one heat dissipation fin 11 is disposed on the surface of the capacitor housing 1 .

[0041] Specific embodiments of the present utility model are shown below.

[0042] The capacitor housing 1 is provided with a cavity 12 with a side opening, the capacitor core 2 , the first busbar 4 and the second busbar 5 are all arranged in the cavity 12 , and the packaging material 3 is potted in the cavity 12 .

[0043] Furthermore, the heat dissipation fins 11 are arranged at equal intervals on the upper surface of the capacitor housing 1; both sides of the capacitor housing 1 are provided with foot seats 13 for locking the capacitor with bolts. In this embodiment, a metal pressure limiting sleeve 6 is arranged inside the foot seats 13.

[0044] The packaging material 3 is made of epoxy resin, silicone or polyurethane.

[0045] The first busbar 4 includes a first pole piece 41 and a second pole piece 42, the thickness of the second pole piece 42 is less than the thickness of the first pole piece 41; the second pole piece 42 is connected to one end face of the capacitor core 2, the first pole piece 41 is overlapped on the second pole piece 42, and the first connecting terminal 411 is provided; the second busbar 5 includes a third pole piece 51 and a fourth pole piece 52, the thickness of the fourth pole piece 52 is less than the thickness of the third pole piece 51; the fourth pole piece 52 is connected to the other end face of the capacitor core 2, the third pole piece 51 is overlapped on the fourth pole piece 52, and the second connecting terminal 511 is provided. By arranging the second pole piece 42 and the fourth pole piece 52 with thinner thickness on the two end faces of the capacitor core 2, and making the first pole piece 41 and the third pole piece 51 overlap with the second pole piece 42 and the fourth pole piece 52 respectively, the overall resistance value of the first busbar 4 and the second busbar 5 is lower.
