Description

Capacitor and the method that is connected capacitor
Technical field
The capacitor of the big electric capacity that the present invention relates in distinct electronic apparatuses, use and the method that is connected such capacitor.
Background technology
Proposed a kind of for example at the electrical double layer capacitor of the structure like this shown in Figure 18 and 19 capacitor as big electric capacity.As shown in figure 18, in this electrical double layer capacitor, capacitor element 31 is housed inside in the metal shell 36 with airtight bottom, and will drive after electrolyte injects this capacity cell 31, capacitor element 31 is placed in the airtight metal shell 36 in bottom, and by opening black box 37 its opening portions of sealing.The cover made from synthetic resin 38 covers the outside of metal shells 36.
As shown in figure 19, in capacitor element 31, each by be mixed together with stir the polarizable electrode 32a of sheet that activated carbon for example, carbon and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) as adhesive form and 33a by electrically conducting adhesive respectively be fixed with the paper tinsel shape of drawing lead-in wire, sheet or netted metal current collector 32b and be connected with 33b, form electrode assemblie 32 and 33 thus, and this electrode assemblie is rolled volume to turning to by separator 34 and 35.
Circuit current-collector 32b and 33b do greatlyyer so that outstanding lead portion 32c and 33c to be provided respectively than polarizable electrode 32a of sheet and 33a on width, and in coiling operating period, these outstanding lead portion 32c are tilted to the center (by die forging) of capacitor element 31 to be provided for contacting face-to-face the wire surface of purpose with 33c.
Upper and lower surface about the capacitor element 31 that forms by die forging, keep lower surface 32c to contact, and keep upper surface 33c to contact with the surface, inside of the conducting end daughter board 39 that extends through opening black box 37 with the inner surface of the lower surface part 36a of metal shell 36.
Encapsulating method about opening black box 37, be formed for keeping the horizontal paddle-tumble of opening black box 37 at metal shell 36, and place after the opening black box 37 on this horizontal paddle-tumble, the open end portion of metal shell 36 curves inwardly, and the permanent opening black box 37 thus.In order further to strengthen sealing effectiveness, the open end portion of the bending of metal shell 36 is engaged in the rubber part 40 of the annular that opening black box 37 places provide.
As the prior art of the invention that relates to the application, known existence is JP-A-10-275751 for example.

When in high temperature and high humidity environment, using this capacitor, can run into a problem, promptly owing to combine setting with interlock, so the driving electrolyte leaks to the outside along the inner surface of metal shell 36 as the open end portion of the metal shell 36 of negative electrode and the ring-shaped rubber part that provides at opening black box 37 places 40.
About this leakage, metal shell 36 is negative electrodes, and therefore partly locate to produce hydroxyl ion in its sealed opening owing to drive the electrochemical reaction of electrolytical moisture, and because the effect of hydroxyl ion and electrolytical cation, electrolyte meter reveals higher basicity.The driving electrolyte that shows alkaline characteristic moves the rubber part 40 that keeps in touch with open end portion to worsen along the inner surface of metal shell 36, has reduced sealing property thus.
On the other hand, exist a plurality of capacitors that are connected in series to improve the situation of withstand voltage properties.In this case, the metal shell of first capacitor is anodal, and second metal shell to last capacitor alternately is the positive and negative utmost point.
When this metal shell was positive pole, the electric current collector plate was a negative pole.Here, and when for example using the etamon borofluoride when driving electrolytical solute, the tetrafluoro boric acid anion that is anion in driving electrolyte is near the sealed opening part, and the reaction by (chemical equation 1) expression takes place, and produce hydrogen ion by reaction then, reveal acidic nature so that drive electrolyte meter by (chemical equation 2) expression.
(chemical equation 1)
(chemical equation 2)
This drives electrolytical acid constituents and moves along the inner surface of metal shell, and the rubber part that keeps in touch of deterioration and open end portion, so that reduce sealing property.
When the driving electrolyte so leaks to the outside, this situation not only causes the problem in shortening capatcitor life-span, and cause a problem, promptly when driving positive and negative that the mode of electrolyte with bridge joint be deposited on the wiring pattern of printed circuit board (PCB) and partly go up, has the fault that the ionic conduction characteristic is caused circuit owing to leak to the driving electrolyte of outside.
The present invention seeks the problem that solves above routine, and an object of the present invention is to provide the capacitor of big electric capacity, even wherein use capacitor for a long time in high temperature and high humidity environment, drives electrolyte and also can not leak to the outside.And the present invention also provides a kind of method that connects this capacitor.
