Description

capacitor device

The present invention relates to capacitor devices.

In recent years, high ripple current and high capacity are desired for capacitors used in in-vehicle products and industrial equipment. In particular, for applications that require capacitors to withstand high ripple current, in order to prevent the product life from being shortened due to internal heat generation, ESR (equivalent Solid electrolytic capacitors with low series resistance) are used.

In addition, due to the miniaturization of electronic devices, electronic components are also required to be smaller and thinner, and in order to cope with high-frequency circuits, reducing ESL (equivalent series inductance) is also a major issue. Normally, to reduce ESL, it is necessary to reduce the distance between the anode and cathode terminals in order to limit the inductance component of the capacitor element, which reduces the size and increases the capacitance of the capacitor. There is the problem of getting smaller.

By the way, as a method of reducing ESL, a method using a three-terminal capacitor is known. It has been proposed to implement it in a compatible manner (see Patent Literature 1 below). Further, it has been proposed to provide a concave portion in the cathode terminal of the solid electrolytic capacitor element, and to improve the adhesive strength by fixing the external terminal of the capacitor element in a conductive connection state in the concave portion (see Patent Document 2 below). ).

A capacitor element having a second terminal 13 conductively connected to a second electrode (anode) 11a protruding in the axial direction from one end of the capacitor element, and a third terminal 14 conductively connected to the first electrode 11d. 10 included. Here, the second terminal 13 is, for example, provided integrally with the second electrode 11a with a wire having a conductive coating such as tin plating on the outermost periphery of a conductive material such as aluminum, iron, or copper. , is electrically connected to the second electrode 11a.

The capacitor body 11 includes a second axial electrode (anode) 11a extending in the axial direction at the center, and a dielectric (insulating film) 11b formed on the surface of the second electrode 11a. In the illustrated example, the surface of a valve metal such as aluminum is subjected to surface widening treatment (treatment to increase the surface area by forming fine unevenness) by etching or the like, and then chemical conversion treatment (anodic oxidation treatment) is performed on the surface. An oxide film is formed by applying. Formed on the dielectric 11b is an electrolyte portion 11c having a function as an electrolyte such as a particulate solid electrolyte such as a conductive polymer and a functional liquid. A first electrode (cathode) 11d made of conductive carbon or the like is formed on the electrolyte portion 11c.

The capacitor body 11 is configured in a cylindrical shape in the illustrated example. However, it may be configured in a prismatic shape as long as it is columnar or axial as a whole. Capacitor device 10 as a whole is configured in a shape extending in the axial direction, that is, in a rod shape. A first terminal 12 conductively connected to the first electrode 11d further protrudes in the axial direction from the other end of the capacitor body 11 . In the illustrated example, the first terminal 12 protrudes in the axial direction and then bends in a direction intersecting the axial direction, but is not particularly limited. The first terminal 12 faces the first electrode 11d formed on the outer peripheral surface of the capacitor body 11 and surrounds the first electrode 11d, more specifically, encompasses (wraps) the first electrode 11d. It has a plate-shaped conductor portion 12 a formed in a shape and an axial terminal piece portion 12 b that is conductively connected to the plate-shaped conductor portion 12 a and protrudes from the capacitor body 11 .

The plate-shaped conductor portion 12a is composed of a cylindrical metal plate having the same thickness at the portion facing the first electrode 11d on the outer peripheral surface. At least a portion of the plate-shaped conductor portion 12a along the first electrode 11d is provided with a uniform interval from the first electrode 11d, and a conductive adhesive 15 such as silver paste is applied to the interval. By being filled, it is electrically connected to the first electrode 11 d and fixed to the capacitor body 11 . At this time, the portion of the conductive adhesive 15 filled in the gap has a uniform thickness. In the illustrated example, the plate-shaped conductor portion 12a extends in the axial direction to the vicinity of one end of the capacitor body 11 from which the second terminal 13 protrudes, and covers most of the first electrode 11d forming the outer peripheral surface. configured as In the illustrated example, as shown in FIG. 1C, the plate-shaped conductor portion 12a is configured to cover the capacitor body 11 (the first electrode 11d, that is, the outer peripheral surface) over the entire circumference around the axis. be.

In the illustrated example, the first electrode 11d is formed not only on the outer peripheral surface of the capacitor body 11, but also on the other end opposite to the one end from which the second terminal 13 protrudes. Moreover, the plate-shaped conductor portion 12a of the first terminal 12 also includes a portion that covers the other end portion. The terminal piece portion 12b protrudes in the axial direction from this portion. In the illustrated example, the plate-shaped conductor portion 12a also has a uniform thickness at the portion on the other end, as described above, and is spaced uniformly from the surface of the other end. The thickness of the conductive adhesive 15 filled in this gap is also configured to be uniform.

The third terminal 14 is conductively connected to the plate-like conductor portion 12a of the first terminal 12 at a substantially central portion in the axial direction of the capacitor body 11, and is provided as a shaft-like terminal piece portion so as to protrude to the outer peripheral side. Although not particularly limited, in the illustrated example, the plate-like conductor portion 12a, the terminal piece portion 12b, and the third terminal 14 of the first terminal 12 are integrally formed of metal parts.

The body structure of the capacitor body 11 is not particularly limited as long as it has a capacitor function. A capacitor is mentioned. Solid electrolytic capacitors are characterized by low ESR. The solid electrolytic capacitor is desirably a solid electrolytic polymer capacitor using fine particles of conductive polymer together with a functional liquid. In the present invention, general electrolytic capacitors, laminated ceramic capacitors, film capacitors, etc. may be used.

In the capacitor element 10, the capacitor main body 11 and the base end portions of the first terminal 12, the second terminal 13 and the third terminal 14 electrically connected to at least the first electrode 11d and the second electrode 11a are sealed. It is sealed with a stopper material 16 . The sealing material 16 is made of an electrically insulating synthetic resin. Here, the end portions of the first terminal 12 , the second terminal 13 , and the third terminal 14 are exposed to the outside of the encapsulant 16 as terminal pieces projecting from the interior of the encapsulant 16 .

In this embodiment, the plate-like conductor portion 12a of the first terminal 12 is conductively connected to at least the first electrode 11d formed on the outer peripheral surface of the capacitor body 11 (cylindrical portion in the illustrated example). extends around the axis (that is, in the circumferential direction) and is formed to at least partially surround the first electrode 11d, thereby increasing the conductive connection area between the first electrode 11d and the first terminal 12 Therefore, ESR can be suppressed, and ESL can also be suppressed. In particular, in this embodiment configured as a three-terminal capacitor, substantial ESL is even more suppressed. In addition, since the bonding strength between the first electrode 11d and the first terminal 12 can be increased, failures such as electrical open accidents can be avoided, and electrical reliability can be improved. Become. In particular, regarding the latter, the portion of the plate-shaped conductor portion 12a that extends around the axis (that is, in the circumferential direction) and is formed so as to at least partially surround the first electrode has a uniform thickness; The portion is provided with a uniform gap from the first electrode 11d, and the conductive adhesive 15 having a uniform thickness is interposed in this gap to fix the portion in a conductive connection state, thereby stabilizing the conductive connection portion. Since reliability and certainty can be further increased, reliability can be further improved.

In the present embodiment, in the capacitor element 20, the first terminal 22 covers only a portion of the first electrode 11d provided on the outer peripheral surface of the capacitor body 11, which is formed near the other end in the axial direction. formed in For this reason, the third terminal 24 is formed independently of the first terminal 22 so as to partially cover the first electrode 11 d in the central portion of the capacitor body 11 in the axial direction. In the illustrated example, the third terminal 24 includes a plate-shaped conductor portion 24a and a terminal piece portion 24b, and the plate-shaped conductor portion 24a extends around the axis (circumferential direction) along the first electrode 11d. , is not formed so as to entirely cover the first electrode 11d around the axis, but is formed only on a part of the axis around the terminal piece portion 24b as shown in FIG. 2(c). On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 2(d), the plate-like conductor portion 22a of the first terminal 22 encompasses the first electrode 11d over the entire axis, as in the previous embodiment.

In this embodiment, since the first terminal 22 and the third terminal 24 are conductively connected to the first electrode 11d at different locations, there is an advantage that the assembly work during manufacturing can be facilitated. In particular, since the third terminal 24 is configured to cover the first electrode 11d only in less than half of the angular range around the axis, it can be attached to the capacitor body 11 from the side, simplifying the assembly work. Although the conductive connection area between the terminals 22 and 24 and the first electrode 11d is somewhat small, the size of each conductive connection area and the terminal position can be individually set, so the degree of freedom in design is increased. increases. In addition, unlike the illustrated example, the first terminal 22 may be formed so as to surround only a part of the axis, and the third terminal 24 may be formed so as to surround the entire axis.

Further, the plate-like conductor portion 32a of the first terminal 32 of this embodiment is not formed so as to cover the entire circumference of the axis similarly to the third terminal 24, and as shown in FIG. It is formed only on a portion of the terminal piece portion 32b side around the axis.

The difference is that the shaped conductor portion 44a extends around the axis (circumferential direction) over an angle range of more than half (180 degrees) around the axis, and covers the first electrode 11d so as to surround it.

In the present embodiment, the plate-like conductor portion 44a of the third terminal 44 covers the first electrode 11d over a half or more angular range around the axis, thereby allowing the third terminal 24 of the second embodiment to be easily connected from the side. Although it cannot be attached to the capacitor element 11 immediately, since it does not cover the entire circumference around the axis, the attachment work is performed while ensuring a somewhat large conductive connection area and checking the filling condition of the conductive adhesive 15. have the advantage of being able to In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3(d), the capacitor body 11' has a prismatic shape, and the plate-like conductor portion 44a is correspondingly formed so as to partially surround the rectangular cross section. may

Consists of only a portion extending around the axis (circumferential direction) with respect to the first electrode 11d constituted by the outer peripheral surface, covers the other end of the capacitor body 11 as in the fourth embodiment, and It differs in that it does not have a part to be electrically connected. Further, the plate-like conductor portion 52a of the first terminal 52 of this embodiment is not formed so as to cover the entire circumference of the axis line, similarly to the third terminal 44, and as shown in FIG.

Although the plate-shaped conductor portion 52a of the first terminal 52 is configured to surround the first electrode 11d over a half or more angular range around the axis, it may be formed so as to surround the entirety around the axis. Alternatively, it may be formed so as to enclose only less than half the angular range around the axis. Further, the third terminal 44 may also be formed so as to surround the entire circumference of the axis, or may be formed so as to surround only less than half the angular range around the axis.
