Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a capacitor, and more particularly to a flat-core capacitor with a round shell. Background Technology
[0002] Capacitors with a capacitance of 1μF and a voltage rating of 400V feature high voltage resistance, small capacitance, low ESR, and good high-frequency performance, making them widely applicable in power supply filtering, signal coupling, and other scenarios. Currently, these capacitors mainly include ceramic capacitors, electrolytic capacitors, and safety capacitors. However, ceramic capacitors have poor temperature stability, electrolytic capacitors have polarity requirements, and poor high-frequency performance; safety capacitors have tall casings, typically fixed to the casing by a mounting bracket or by connecting lugs on the casing, which are then secured to the mounting surface with screws (the connecting lugs are prone to breakage).
[0003] See Figure 6 The diagram shows the structure of a safety capacitor, comprising a flat-core film capacitor core 1 and a plastic casing 3. The flat-core film capacitor core has gold plating layers at both ends, and lead-out electrodes 2 are located on the gold plating layers. The plastic casing is square, and the flat-core film capacitor core is vertically positioned within the inner cavity of the plastic casing. An epoxy resin potting layer 5 covers the flat-core film capacitor core within the inner cavity. The lead-out electrodes pass through the epoxy resin potting layer and extend from the top of the plastic casing. It is evident that the plastic casing of this capacitor is relatively tall, making it unsuitable for applications with limited installation space. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a flat-core capacitor with a round shell that has a simple and reasonable structure, a thin thickness, and is easy to install.
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is achieved as follows: A round-shell flat-core capacitor includes a flat-core film capacitor core and a plastic shell. The flat-core film capacitor core has gold-plated layers at both ends, and lead-out electrodes are provided on the gold-plated layers. The outer periphery of the plastic shell is circular. The flat-core film capacitor core is placed flat within the inner cavity of the plastic shell, which also contains an epoxy resin potting layer covering the flat-core film capacitor core. The lead-out electrodes pass through the epoxy resin potting layer and extend from the top of the plastic shell. A connecting stud is also provided at the bottom of the plastic shell.
[0006] The objective of this utility model can also be achieved by the following technical measures: As a more specific embodiment, the bottom of the inner cavity of the plastic shell is provided with a support platform, and the upper end of the connecting stud is provided with a connector. The connector is embedded in the support platform and fixedly connected to it; the flat-core film capacitor core is placed on the support platform. The support platform also plays a positioning role in the installation of the flat-core film capacitor core, so that the installation height of the capacitor core is consistent during the production of each capacitor.
[0007] As a further embodiment, the top edge of the plastic shell is provided with an inwardly turned edge.
[0008] As a further embodiment, the upper end of the inner cavity of the plastic shell is provided with an annular concave surface, and the side of the annular concave surface is inclined outward, making the upper outer periphery of the plastic shell relatively thin, forming a certain elasticity, which can be slightly stretched, so that the flat core film capacitor core can be put into the plastic shell and can be tightly fitted with the inner cavity wall of the plastic shell, thereby further reducing the overall outer diameter of the capacitor.
[0009] As a further solution, the edges of the inner flange are rounded to prevent the flat-core film capacitor core from being scratched by the sharp corners of the inner flange when it is installed into the plastic casing.
[0010] As a further improvement, the bottom of the plastic casing is provided with anti-slip texture.
[0011] As a further improvement, the anti-slip texture is ripple-shaped, thereby increasing the creepage distance between the lead-out electrode and the connecting stud.
[0012] As a further embodiment, the outer periphery of the flat-core film capacitor core is wound with an insulating film; the capacitance of the flat-core film capacitor core is 1μF and the withstand voltage is 400V.
[0013] As a further option, the lead-out electrode is a quick-connect insert electrode.
[0014] As a further embodiment, the epoxy resin potting layer contacts the bottom surface of the inner flange, and the corner of the flat core film capacitor core is located within the vertical orthographic projection range of the inner flange.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: (1) The present invention adopts the assembly method of placing the flat core capacitor core flat inside the short outer shell to meet the installation space requirements; in addition, a connecting stud is set at the center of the bottom of the outer shell, which can be directly screwed into the mounting carrier or passed through the mounting carrier and connected and fixed with the nut, making the locking more reliable.
[0016] (2) The outer circumference of the plastic shell of this utility model is circular, which makes it easier to know the diameter range of rotation during installation and to reserve space when laying out the circuit.
[0017] (3) The capacitor of this utility model has no polarity and has good overall performance in terms of temperature stability, high frequency performance and safety. Attached Figure Description

The lead-out electrodes 2 pass through the epoxy resin potting layer 5 and extend from the top of the plastic outer shell 3. A connecting stud 4 is also provided at the bottom of the plastic outer shell 3. When the flat-core film capacitor core 1 is placed flat, its height is less than its width.

The connector 41 is embedded in the support platform 34 and fixedly connected to the support platform 34; the flat core film capacitor core 1 is placed on the support platform 34.

The epoxy resin potting layer 5 is in contact with the bottom surface of the inner flange 32, and the corner of the flat core film capacitor core 1 is located within the vertical orthographic projection range of the inner flange 32.
[0028] The inner flange 32 has a rounded edge.
[0029] The bottom of the plastic shell 3 is provided with a ripple-shaped anti-slip texture 35.
[0030] An insulating film is wound around the outer periphery of the flat-core film capacitor core 1; the capacitance of the flat-core film capacitor core 1 is 1μF and the withstand voltage is 400V.
[0031] The lead-out electrode 2 is a quick-connect insert electrode.
[0032] The installation method is as follows: The mounting carrier of the capacitor has screw holes (not shown in the figure). Hold the outer shell of the capacitor, align the connecting stud 4 and screw it in until the anti-slip texture 35 on the bottom of the plastic shell 3 presses against the surface of the mounting carrier, thus completing the capacitor fixing.
