This invention relates to packing methods and materials for packing electrolytic capacitors and the like. This invention provides packing methods whereby capacitors are held in a container tray with a good order and with no rotational movement of capacitor and packing materials wherein packing of electrolytic capacitors solves the problem of capacitor rotation and allows the capacitors to be easily taken out of the container tray. According to this invention, an electrolytic capacitor loaded container tray is taken out of a receptacle and the electrolytic capacitors held in the container tray in an orderly manner can be smoothly picked up for automatic mounting on printed wiring boards.

Packing materials for electrolytic capacitors

Electrolytic capacitors 14 having terminals 15, 16 on one base face and a fixing frame at the other end part are inserted in bags made of air-bubble plastic sheet of tubular shape whose one end is welded to form an end and further having a terminal-protection part 13 made by folding the end part of the bag and welded to the welded part 12, and the bags 11 containing the electrolytic capacitor 14 are compactly packed in a box 18 of corrugated cardboard in alternating direction and flaps 191, 191, 192, 192 are closed and sealed; the electrolytic capacitors 14 having delicate terminals 15, 16 are safely and compactly packed in the box 18, and the terminals 15, 16 and the bent part of the fixing frames 17, are safely isolated by the bag.
