  • Patent number: 4755153
    Abstract: An internally threaded insert having a knurled outer surface is positioned in an aperture formed in a cover for a capacitor. This provides an antitwist characteristic between the insert and the walls of the aperture to facilitate a seal between the two. An electrical terminal can then be threaded into the insert to electrically connect it to an internal lead of the capacitor. A bushing is also carried in the aperture to provide a seal between the insert and the cover. The insert has a tenon which includes a shoulder providing large and small diameters. The large diameter tenon is deformed to provide a washer and seal at and around the insert at the aperture. After placement of the internal capacitor lead over the formed washer around the insert, the smaller diameter tenon is deformed to provide a rivet head over the lead to hold it in place.
