Abstract: A holder holding capacitor elements is transported by a conveyor and brought into an electrolyte impregnating tank, which is then closed up by a cover which is secured to a carrier movable laterally by a linkage and is moved vertically by a swingable link. A vacuum pump is operated to vacuumize the electrolyte impregnating tank, and then an electrolyte to supplying circuit is operated to supply the electrolyte into the tank of a predetermined vacuum, so that the capacitor elements may be impregnated with the electrolyte by the minus pressure of vacuum. An absorbing device with a pump is operated to absorb the extra electrolyte around the capacitor elements which are placed in the device.

Abstract: A system for producing electrolyte impregnated capacitor elements comprises a reforming device for reforming the leads of capacitor elements which are brought thereto, a clutch device for clutching the reformed capacitor elements, an aligning device for aligning a predetermined number of the reformed capacitor elements, a holding device holding the aligned capacitor elements, an electrolyte impregnating vessel receiving the aligned capacitor elements to impregnate with the electrolyte, a blow-off device for blowing off the excess amount of electrolyte from the electrolyte impregnating capacitor elements, and transmission devices each operated in a predetermined sequence to transmit the capacitor elements between the above mentioned capacitor element treating devices.

Abstract: A reciprocation pump has a plurality of radially arranged pumping chambers each provided with a piston and operatively connected to an external liquid absorbing pipe and an external liquid discharging pipe, and has a central drive mechanism comprising drive members each directly connected to the corresponding one of the radially arranged pistons and a valve structure operated in association with the drive members by a pressure activated fluid injected into the pump at an external inlet thereof, said valve structure sending the pressure activated fluid into and out of the pump simultaneously during the operation thereof.
