The disclosed electrolytic capacitors have an end-seal and a terminal at an end of a case containing an electrolytic capacitor section. The case has an inward projecting formation for obstructing a means inward of the end seal acting as a barrier for preventing expulsion of the capacitor section in the event of an internal pressure rise great enough to blow the end-seal out of its sealing position.

Electrolytic capacitors with pressure-relief and electrode structure

The disclosed electrolytic capacitors have an end-seal and a terminal at an end of a case containing an electrolytic capacitor section. A metal-disc barrier between the electrode assembly and the end-seal is retained in the case by a formation of the case for preventing expulsion of the electrode assembly upon occurrence of an internal pressure great enough to blow the end-seal out of its case-sealing position.
