[0017] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0018] In order to better understand the above technical solution, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to enable a more thorough understanding of the present invention and to fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art.

[0019] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0020] Please refer to Figure 1 The embodiment of the utility model provides a capacitor, including a housing 100 , a capacitor core, two terminals 200 and two insulating members 300 .

[0021] Specifically, the shell 100 can be a cylindrical structure, such as a square cylinder or a round cylinder, etc. The shell 100 has a accommodating cavity with one port for accommodating other components. A notch 110 is provided on one side wall of the shell 100, and the notch 110 is arranged close to the opening of the accommodating cavity. The notch 110 can be of any shape, such as circular, semicircular, square, strip, etc. It should be noted that the number of notches 110 can be one or two. When the number of notches 110 is two, the two notches 110 can be arranged in parallel, and the distance between the two notches 110 can be determined according to the actual implementation needs, and there is no special limitation on this.

[0022] The capacitor core is arranged in the accommodating cavity, and the potting material 120 is filled between the capacitor core and the inner side wall of the housing 100. After the potting material 120 cools down, the relative position between the capacitor core and the housing 100 can be fixed to avoid contact between the capacitor core and the housing 100. One end of each terminal 200 is connected to the capacitor core, and the other end passes through the notch 110 outside the housing 100 to overlap and assemble with the counterpart. It should be understood that the width of the notch 110 can be slightly larger than the width of the terminal 200 to facilitate the installation of the terminal 200.

[0023] The two insulating members 300 are respectively sleeved on the two terminals 200, and one end of the insulating member 300 is engaged in the notch 110, that is, an interference fit is achieved between the end of the insulating member 300 and the notch 110, thereby preventing leakage from the notch 110 when filling the potting material 120. The other end of the insulating member 300 extends outward along the terminal 200 to ensure the insulation performance between the terminals 200 or between the terminal 200 and other components in the installation environment.

[0024] It should be noted that the extension length of the insulating member 300 can be determined according to the relative positions of the other components and the capacitor in the actual installation environment, so as to ensure that the components do not interfere with each other. In addition, the insulating member 300 can be made of insulating materials such as plastic, silica gel or powder encapsulation material, and those skilled in the art will not make any special restrictions on this.

[0025] Therefore, through the capacitor provided by the embodiment of the utility model, the terminal 200 is led out from the side wall of the housing 100, which is convenient for users to perform overlapping assembly, and the arrangement inside the inverter is also more convenient, thereby improving the space utilization rate inside the inverter. In addition, through the provision of the insulating member 300, the potting material 120 is prevented from leaking from the notch 110, and the safety of the capacitor can be ensured.

[0026] In one embodiment of the utility model, the number of the notches 110 can be two, and the two terminals 200 respectively pass through the two notches 110, so as to avoid the situation where the distance between the terminals 200 is too close, which reduces the safety, or the width of the notch 110 is too large and difficult to block.

[0027] In one example, one end portion of the insulating member 300 that is engaged at the notch 110 is inserted into the shell 100, and the width of the portion inserted into the shell 100 is greater than the width of the notch 110. This can prevent the insulating member 300 from escaping from the notch 110 under the action of external force, thereby ensuring the effectiveness of the insulating member 300 in sealing the notch 110.

[0028] In one embodiment of the utility model, a bending portion 210 is provided at one end of the two terminals 200 away from the housing 100, and the two bending portions 210 are bent in opposite directions. Thus, the user can install the capacitor through the bending portion 210 to ensure the contact area between the terminal 200 and the fitting, thereby ensuring the assembly effect. Furthermore, a through hole can be opened on each bending portion 210, through which the contact area between the welding material and the terminal 200 can be increased, thereby improving the stability of the capacitor assembly.

[0029] Based on the above embodiment, one end of the insulating member 300 extending outwardly extends to the bending point of the terminal 200, that is, the position connected to the bending portion 210, thereby ensuring the insulation performance between the two terminals 200 or between the terminal 200 and other components.
