Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to an aluminum electrolytic capacitor, especially an aluminum electrolytic capacitor with pressure detection. BACKGROUND
[0002] At present, large aluminum electrolytic capacitors, such as horn-shaped aluminum electrolytic capacitors and bolt-shaped aluminum electrolytic capacitors, are generally liquid aluminum electrolytic capacitors; however, liquid aluminum electrolytic capacitors will inevitably have the risk of electrode liquid leakage due to the use of electrolyte. The electrolyte leakage of the aluminum electrolytic capacitor is generally caused by the opening of the pressure valve due to excessive pressure in the aluminum electrolytic capacitor shell.
[0003] When the internal pressure of the existing aluminum electrolytic capacitor exceeds the action pressure of the pressure valve, the pressure valve acts, causing the pressure in the capacitor to leak, preventing dangerous conditions. If the pressure valve malfunctions or acts too slowly, it will cause the electrolyte to vaporize and spray out of the shell, thereby adhering to the circuit board, thereby damaging the circuit board.

[0007] The aluminum electrolytic capacitor with pressure detection described above is preferably provided with a cavity at the bottom of the base, and after the upper part of the base is connected with the shell, the bottom of the shell is arranged at the lower part of the cavity to form the containing cavity.
[0008] The aluminum electrolytic capacitor with pressure detection, preferably, the pressure sensor comprises a pressure disc, a transmission block and a connecting spring; the pressure disc is extruded between a gasket and a base around the periphery, the gasket is arranged at the bottom of the shell and is in sealing connection with the shell; the lower middle part of the pressure disc is opposite to the air hole, the upper middle part of the pressure disc is provided with the transmission block, the transmission block is arranged in the accommodating cavity and is movable in the accommodating cavity; the connecting spring is arranged above the transmission block; the transmission block is provided with a top block for pushing the connecting spring, and the connecting spring is in contact with or separated from the external terminal under the action of the top block.
