A capacitor and capacitor assemblies are provided, configured to prevent damage from shock and/or vibration. A capacitor assembly according to the invention comprises an anode plate having an anode plate wire extending from a surface of the anode plate. An anode wire holder is positioned around at least a portion of the anode plate wire. A wire separator comprising a channel is provided, at least a portion of the anode plate wire received within the channel. Methods of forming capacitors and capacitor assemblies are also provided.

A capacitor and an electronic device comprising same are disclosed. An electronic device according to the present disclosure may comprise: a substrate; a plurality of capacitors mounted on the substrate, each of the plurality of capacitors including a case extending to accommodate an electrolyte therein, and a cap coupled to one end of the case in the direction in which the case extends configured to restrict scattering of the electrolyte; and a fixing member comprising a protrusion and configured to press the perimeters of the caps in the radial direction of the caps to fix the plurality of capacitors to the substrate.

A capacitor is provided with a case having a receptacle with an expandable section that allows the receptacle to extend axially when internal pressure builds within the case as a result of a fault. Terminals are mounted on the cover and electrically connected to the electrodes of a capacitor element through an interrupter plate, via leads. The plate is attached to the section of the case that extends under pressure, whereby the plate is drawn away from the cover, thereby breaking the electrical connections to the terminal. The plate may also work in conjunction with a cover that expands outward in response to internal pressure, to provide a second pressure interrupter mechanism.

A wet electrolytic capacitor that contains a casing that contains a cylindrical sidewall is provided. The cylindrical sidewall defines an inner surface that surrounds an interior. First and second outer anodes are positioned within the interior of the casing. The first outer anode has a radiused sidewall and an opposing planar sidewall and the second outer anode has a radiused sidewall and an opposing planar sidewall. A central anode is also positioned within the interior of the casing between the first and second outer anodes. The central anode contains opposing first and second outer sidewalls intersecting with opposing first and second inner sidewalls. The first and second inner sidewalls are planar, and the first planar inner sidewall of the central anode faces the planar sidewall of the first outer anode and the second planar inner sidewall of the central anode faces the planar sidewall of the second outer anode.

A wet electrolytic capacitor that contains a casing that contains a sidewall extending to an upper end to define an opening is provided. The sidewall further defines an inner surface that surrounds an interior. At least one anode and at least one cathode are positioned within the interior of the casing, wherein the cathode contains an electrochemically-active material and further wherein an anode lead extends from the anode. A working electrolyte is in electrical contact with the anode and the electrochemically-active material. The capacitor also comprises a lid assembly that contains a lid positioned on an upper end of the casing sidewall, wherein the lid defines an orifice through which a tube extends. The tube accommodates the anode lead that extends from the anode. A dielectric layer is formed on a surface of the tube.
