[0002] The traditional design of an aluminum electrolytic capacitor typically consists of a negative electrode foil, a positive electrode foil, and an electrolyte between the two electrodes. This structural design has been widely used in various electrical devices. Patent No. CN213673808U discloses a fixture for aluminum electrolytic capacitor durability testing. The movable right fixture's back-and-forth opening and closing movement significantly shortens the installation time of aluminum electrolytic capacitors and greatly improves testing efficiency. However, the spring installed at the lead terminal may lead to unstable clamping.
