Abstract: Film capacitor is formed by winding first metal layer, first film, second metal layer, and second film that are in a stacked state in this order. In film surfaces of first and second films, an orientation angle ? of first film and an orientation angle ? of second film are different in sign from each other when a sign of the orientation angle which represents rotation from reference direction RD to one of both end surfaces is defined to be positive, and the sign of the orientation angle which represents rotation from reference direction RD to another of both end surfaces is defined to be negative. Here, the orientation angle is defined by an acute angle between an orientation main axis MA between reference direction RD parallel to first and second end surfaces when portions of first and second films facing each other through second metal layer are viewed in a direction perpendicular to the film surfaces.

Abstract: A film capacitor includes: a capacitor element in which a metallikon electrode is formed at an end; a bus bar connected to the metallikon electrode; and a holding member having a slit into which the bus bar is inserted, the slit being formed with protrusions. The bus bar inserted into the slit is press-contacted with the protrusions, and as a result, the bus bar is held by the holding member. With this configuration, relative mounting accuracy (positioning accuracy) of positive and negative electrode bus bars is improved, and further, the bus bars can be easily connected to the capacitor elements.

Abstract: A film capacitor includes a capacitor element and first and second external electrodes. The capacitor element includes a dielectric film, a first and a second electrode films facing each other across the dielectric film. The first electrode film includes electrode segments arranged in a matrix form, first fuses connecting the electrode segments adjacent to each other in a first direction, and second fuses connecting the electrode segments adjacent to each other in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The second fuses are arranged dispersedly in columns constituted by the electrode segments disposed in the second direction.

Abstract: Compositions comprising an attenuated strain of vaccinia virus as active ingredient are found to be useful as cellular immunopotentiator and antitumor agent. The attenuated strain of vaccinia virus is obtained by serial passages of vaccinia virus in cell monolayers of chick embryo cells, preferably after the serial passages in mouse kidney cell monolayers.
