Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of electronic device technology, and in particular relates to a solder-type electrolytic capacitor. Background Technology

[0002] Among various capacitors, aluminum electrolytic capacitors are widely popular because, for the same size, they can achieve a larger CV value per unit area, store more charge, and are cheaper.

[0003] Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are generally equipped with explosion-proof structures, such as explosion-proof valves or explosion-proof holes. Typically, most explosion-proof devices for aluminum electrolytic capacitors are located on the aluminum shell, such as explosion-proof holes or explosion-proof valves designed on the bottom or side. The main purpose is to prevent the capacitor from exploding if a performance abnormality occurs during use, causing the capacitor to heat up and the electrolyte inside the capacitor to vaporize, producing a large amount of gas inside the shell. When the gas pressure exceeds the pressure release value of the explosion-proof valve, the explosion-proof valve opens, releasing the electrolyte and gas, thus preventing the capacitor from exploding.

[0004] Although most aluminum electrolytic capacitors are designed with explosion-proof structures, capacitor explosions can still occur. Because the electrolyte in aluminum electrolytic capacitors is primarily composed of ethylene glycol and polymer materials, which are flammable, and this electrolyte adheres to the electrolytic paper, which is also flammable, the capacitor core can easily ignite under the sparks during an explosion. Once a capacitor catches fire, it can damage the entire device using the capacitor, or even cause a serious fire, endangering the user's property and life. Therefore, explosion-proof design for aluminum electrolytic capacitors is extremely important.

It does not necessarily belong to the prior art of this patent application.
