  • Capacitor integrated with connector
    Patent number: 6285541
    Abstract: A capacitor integrated with connector having a capacitor element 11 from which at least two lead wires extend, a terminal board 10 having at least two connectors 13 and at least two connecting terminals 14, 15 electrically connected to each connector 13, respectively. A groove narrower than a lead wire 16 is formed in each of connecting terminals 14, 15, and a lead wire 16 is trapped in the groove. The capacitor integrating connector can be assembled with ease regardless of a shape of mounting board 4, and can substantially improve assembly efficiency and achieve lead-free connection.
