Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an electrical capacitor, preferably with a dielectric of a thermoplastic material, the plates of which, consisting especially of thin metal layers, produced by vapor treatment, are first contacted by end contact layers of a metal having a high melting temperature upon which is applied a layer of metal having a low melting temperature.
  • end contact layers are usually produced by the so-called Schoops" metal spraying process in which a spraying on of molten metal is effected.
  • Schoops metal spraying process
  • end contact layers are also known, however, methods of producing end contact layers by other processes as for example, by metal vapor treatment.
  • end contact layers not of one metal, but of several metals successively applied to form several layers. It is, for example, a known practice to first apply to the end surfaces a copper layer and only then over such copper layer, to apply low melting metal, for example, zinc.
  • an electrical capacitor the plates of which are contacted by end contact layers of a first applied high melting metal on which is superimposed a layer of a low melting metal, in which, according to the invention, the first applied high melting metal is arranged on the ends of the capacitor in the form of individual particles, not forming a cohesive layer, but covering essentially each winding layer of the capacitor.
  • the end contact layer according to the invention there is melted into the end surfaces first of all through a short spray burst which may be achieved in the Soho-op process a certain number of particles of a metal with relatively high melting point (ca. 1000* C. and above) and preferably relative high density, such as, for example, gold, copper, cobalt, iron, manganese, nickel, vanadium, zirconium and thereupon there is sprayed on a cohesive layer of a metal with a relatively low melting point such as, for example, zinc or tin or a z'yerin alloy, and to this, in the usual manner, the terminal wires are fastened.
  • a metal with relatively high melting point ca. 1000* C. and above
  • relative high density such as, for example, gold, copper, cobalt, iron, manganese, nickel, vanadium, zirconium and thereupon there is sprayed on a cohesive layer of a metal with a relatively low melting point such as, for example, zinc or tin
  • the ends of the capacitor are thermally charged only for such a short time that no damage to the dielectric is to be feared.
  • the non-cohesive particles "ice of the high melting metal act as embedding or anchoring elements for the contact layer subsequently applied to the ends of the wrapped capacitor layers.
  • the utilization of the invention has proved especially advantageous in thin foil capacitors, the dielectric of which consists of thin lacquer layers, in particular, of acetyl cellulose or polystyrene.
  • FIG. 1 is an elevational view of a capacitor embodying the invention, with a corner portion broken away;
  • FIG. 2 is an enlarged sectional view of the corner portion broken away in FIG. 1.
  • FIG. 1 of the drawing in which there is represented a wrapped electric capacitor, the ends of which, as illustrated in FIG. 2, are contacted by first spraying on individual particles 2 of a high-melting metal, for example copper, and subsequently spraying on an end contact layer 3 of a metal with low melting point, for example zinc. Onto the end contact layer 3- there are then soldered the terminal wires 4, by meansof which electrical connections of the capacitor are effected.
  • a high-melting metal for example copper
  • an end contact layer 3 of a metal with low melting point, for example zinc
  • An electrical capacitor with a dielectric of -a thermoplastic material, the plates of which consist of thin metal layers produced by metalization, and are contacted by end contact layers of a first-applied high melting metal and a superimposed layer of a low melting metal, characterized by the feature that the high melting metal, first applied, and directly contacting the capacitor structure is disposed thereon in the form of individual particles which do not form a cohesive layer, but cover essentially each winding layer at the ends of the capacitor, said low melting metal connecting said individual particles and anchoredthereby to the adjacent winding layers.
  • An electrical capacitor is defined in claim 1, wherein the particle size of such high-melting metal is within the range of 20 to 300' microns.
