The terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and the aforementioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.

Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure of a single layer of the base film after it is rolled up.

[0025] This filter capacitor primarily provides a reasonable structure to ensure reliable heat dissipation and improve product reliability.

[0026] To achieve this technical goal, this application provides a filter capacitor comprising: a first terminal 101, a second terminal 102, a first annular metal sheet 110, a second annular metal sheet 120, and a base film.

[0027] The base film is provided with a left metal coating strip 210, a middle metal coating strip 220 and a right metal coating strip 230 from left to right; the base film is formed into a hollow capacitor core by being rolled up.

[0028] The left side of the hollow capacitor core is connected to the first annular metal sheet 110, so that the left metal plating strip 210 is electrically connected to the first annular metal sheet 110. The right side of the hollow capacitor core is connected to the second annular metal sheet 120, so that the right metal plating strip 230 is electrically connected to the second annular metal sheet 120. The first terminal 101 is connected to the first annular metal sheet 110, and the second terminal 102 is connected to the second annular metal sheet 120.

[0029] The first electrode 101 and the second electrode 102 serve as the polarity posts of the capacitor, and their purpose is to connect with the hollow capacitor core formed by the base film.

[0030] To achieve a better and more reliable connection between the hollow capacitor core formed by the base film and the first terminal 101 and the second terminal 102, a first annular metal sheet 110 is provided between the first terminal 101 and the left side of the hollow capacitor core. A second annular metal sheet 120 is provided between the second terminal 102 and the right side of the hollow capacitor core.

[0031] The first annular metal sheet 110 is connected to the left side of the hollow capacitor core through a certain connection process, thereby enabling the first annular metal sheet 110 to be electrically connected to the left metal plating strip 210. The second annular metal sheet 120 is connected to the right side of the hollow capacitor core through a certain connection process, thereby enabling the second annular metal sheet 120 to be electrically connected to the right metal plating strip 230.

[0032] The central hole of the hollow capacitor core forms a heat dissipation channel 300 with the central annular holes of the first annular metal sheet 110 and the second annular metal sheet 120.

[0033] In practical applications, when this capacitor is used for high-current filtering, the hollow capacitor core generates Joule heat due to the equivalent series resistance effect. This Joule heat can be dissipated through the outer periphery of the capacitor. Since the central hole of the hollow capacitor core forms a heat dissipation channel 300 with the central holes of the first annular metal sheet 110 and the second annular metal sheet 120, the Joule heat can also be dissipated externally through this channel 300. From another perspective, the heat dissipation channel 300 gives the capacitor not only external peripheral walls but also internal peripheral walls. This significantly increases the area of ​​the capacitor in contact with air, thereby improving its ability to dissipate Joule heat.

[0034] In this application, because the capacitor is hollow, the peripheral wall in contact with air is significantly increased compared to capacitors in the prior art. Therefore, this capacitor exhibits better heat dissipation performance compared to capacitors in the prior art, thus meeting the heat dissipation requirements in high-current filtering applications.

[0035] On the other hand, in one of the single layers of the hollow capacitor core, the base film can be considered to be composed of at least two capacitors connected in series. The left metal-plated strip 210 and the middle metal-plated strip 220 form one capacitor, and the middle metal-plated strip 220 and the right metal-plated strip 230 form another capacitor. A capacitor core formed by this multi-capacitor series connection can achieve high voltage withstand performance.

[0036] In practical applications, since the metal plating strip of the hollow capacitor core will bear a large current, in some further embodiments, a first thickened layer 211 is provided on the left metal plating strip 210. By providing the first thickened layer 211, the material strength of the left metal plating strip 210 is increased, its conductivity is improved, and its withstand voltage is enhanced. In this specific embodiment, the first thickened layer 211 is located on the left side of the left metal plating strip 210.

[0037] In some further embodiments, a second thickened layer 221 is provided on the central metal-plated strip 220. By providing the second thickened layer 221, the material strength of the central metal-plated strip 220 is increased, its conductivity is improved, and its withstand voltage is enhanced. In this specific embodiment, the second thickened layer 221 is located at the center of the central metal-plated strip 220.

[0038] In some further embodiments, a third thickened layer 231 is provided on the right-side metal-plated strip 230. By providing the third thickened layer 231, the material strength of the right-side metal-plated strip 230 is increased, its conductivity is improved, and its withstand voltage is enhanced. In this specific embodiment, the third thickened layer 231 is located on the right side of the right-side metal-plated strip 230.

[0039] In some further embodiments, the thickness of the first thickened layer 211 is between 1 and 2 times the metal plating thickness of the left-side metal plating layer 210. It should be noted that, in this application, the thickness of the first thickened layer 211 being between 1 and 2 times the metal plating thickness of the left-side metal plating layer 210 includes both cases where the thickness of the first thickened layer 211 is 1 times the metal plating thickness of the left-side metal plating layer 210, and cases where the thickness of the first thickened layer 211 is 2 times the metal plating thickness of the left-side metal plating layer 210.

[0040] In some further embodiments, the thickness of the second thickened layer 221 is between 1 and 2 times the metal plating thickness of the intermediate metal plating layer 220. It should be noted that, in this application, the thickness of the second thickened layer 221 being between 1 and 2 times the metal plating thickness of the intermediate metal plating layer 220 includes: the second thickened layer 221 being 1 times the metal plating thickness of the intermediate metal plating layer 220, and the second thickened layer 221 being 2 times the metal plating thickness of the intermediate metal plating layer.

[0041] In some further embodiments, the thickness of the third thickened layer 231 is between 1 and 2 times the metal plating thickness of the right-side metal plating layer 230. It should be noted that, in this application, the thickness of the third thickened layer 231 being between 1 and 2 times the metal plating thickness of the right-side metal plating layer 230 includes cases where the thickness of the third thickened layer 231 is 1 times the metal plating thickness of the right-side metal plating layer 230, and cases where the thickness of the third thickened layer 231 is 2 times the metal plating thickness of the right-side metal plating layer 230.

[0042] In some further specific embodiments, the base material of the base film is a polypropylene component.

[0043] In order to ensure that the hollow area of ​​the hollow capacitor core has the best heat dissipation and ventilation performance, in some further specific embodiments, the size of the central annular hole of the first annular metal sheet 110 is the same as the size of the central hole of the hollow capacitor core, and the size of the central annular hole of the second annular metal sheet 120 is the same as the size of the core hole of the hollow capacitor core.

Copper components have low resistivity, and setting the first terminal 101 as a copper component can improve the conductivity of the first terminal 101.
