Abstract: A capacitor system is disclosed that includes a first capacitor with a connection for a first pole and a connection for a second pole and a second capacitor with a connection for a first pole and a connection for a second pole. The first poles are like poles in relation to one another and the second poles are like poles in relation to one another and the first poles are of a polarity different from the second poles. Two different-polarity connections of two capacitors are connected to the capacitors on one side of the capacitor system and lead out from the capacitor system at a substantially constant distance from one another, in parallel and/or in a twisted state.

Abstract: A component for a vehicle electric drive is described, which includes at least one connecting lug pair projecting from the component for electrically connecting the component. Here, a first connecting lug and a second connecting lug of the connecting lug pair each have a joining zone for electrically connecting the component. Furthermore, an assembly for a vehicle electric drive is presented, which has at least two such components. Further presented is a method of electrically conductively connecting two components.

Abstract: A DC link capacitor includes a plurality of wound capacitors, each having a first connection pole and a second connection pole, a first current-tapping element by which the first connection poles are contacted, and a second current-tapping element by which the second connection poles are contacted. First wound capacitors, of the plurality of wound capacitors, are arranged in a first row and oriented such that the first connection poles are arranged on a first side of the DC link capacitor and the second connection poles are arranged on a second side of the DC link capacitor. Second wound capacitors of the plurality of wound capacitors are arranged in a second row, where the first and second rows are arranged parallel to each other in a common plane, and where the second wound capacitors are oriented such that the first connection poles are arranged on the second side of the DC link capacitor and the second connection poles are arranged on the first side of the DC link capacitor.

Abstract: A capacitor assembly has a capacitor, a first terminal, a cooling device and a housing which contains the capacitor. The first terminal has a first heat absorbing part and a first heat dissipating part. The first terminal dissipates heat from a first side of the capacitor to the cooling device via the first heat absorbing part and the first heat dissipating part. The first side of the capacitor faces away from the cooling device.
