This application provides a multilayer solid aluminum electrolytic capacitor and a method for preparing the same. The multilayer solid aluminum electrolytic capacitor includes a plurality of cores, a rivet, a case, and a cover plate. The cores are stacked in sequence and fastened in the case through the rivet to form a semi-finished capacitor. The semi-finished capacitor is covered by the cover plate and then sealed to form the solid aluminum electrolytic capacitor.

A capacitor may include a stack assembly. The stack assembly may include a plurality of anode plate members, each having an embedded wire. The anode plate members may be separated by at least one cathode foil sandwiched between separator sheets. A conducting member may electrically connect the embedded wires and may have an externally accessible end portion that is hermetically sealed from the interior of the capacitor. A case covers the stack assembly and may be attached to a cover. The case and cover may enclose the stack assembly within an interior area of the capacitor. The at least one cathode foil may be connected to the case. An electrolyte fluid may be disposed within the interior area of the capacitor. A passage may be provided through a central portion of the stack assembly. A tube, surrounded by insulation, may pass through the passage and may be connected to the cover and the case.

The present invention is directed to an electrolyte for an electrolytic capacitor. The capacitor has an electrolytic anode and an electrochemical cathode. The electrolyte has water, a water soluble organic salt, and a relatively weak organic acid. This electrolyte is chemically compatible to aluminum and tantalum oxide dielectrics and withstands higher voltage while maintaining good conductivity. This makes the electrolyte especially useful for high voltage applications, such as occur in an implantable cardiac defibrillator.

In an embodiment, a capacitor includes a winding element having a diameter of more than 10 mm, at least two tabs electrically contacted with an anode foil and at least two tabs electrically contacted with a cathode foil, wherein the capacitor is a hybrid polymer aluminum electrolytic capacitor, wherein the winding element is arranged inside a can having a can bottom, and wherein the can comprises a corrugation which fixes the winding element.

A camera mounting assembly includes a base member or plate for holding a camera and a side member or plate. In an exemplary embodiment, lower slots on the base plate or side slots on the side plate are gripped by a vertical support's quick-release mechanism to mount the camera in a landscape or portrait orientation, respectively, the camera being generally centered and evenly balanced over the support in either case. The side member is detachably fastened to the base member, which modular construction permits separately timed purchase of the base member and side member as allowed by the user's budget and further permits breakdown of the assembly for ease of transport. The side member may be generally L-shaped with a lower arm length less than the side arm length, which also facilitates transport. Other components may be detachably added such as a hand grip facilitating freehand shooting with the camera.
