The disclosed capacitor connecting structure can connect two wires to a capacitor simply, while reducing the numbers of parts and connecting steps required. The capacitor connecting structure comprises: a capacitor (27; 85; 141) having two electrodes on both sides thereof; two junction terminals (41; 95, 91; 149) each formed with a pressure-connecting terminal portion (31; 107; 151) pressure-connected to a wire, and an elastic terminal portion (37; 97; 153) electrically connected to an electrode of the capacitor; and an insulating material cover (29; 87; 143) for covering the capacitor and the two junction terminals, respectively. The two electrodes of the capacitor can be connected electrically to the two wires via the two junction terminals, respectively, by pressure-connecting the wire to the pressure-connecting terminal portion of the junction terminal, respectively.

Capacitor connecting structure and capacitor

A circumference wall is provided on a slant surface of a case. A cylindrical portion with a through hole for communicating the inside of the case to the outside is protruded inside the circumference wall. A shaft loosely fitted into the through hole is vertically provided from a reversely recessed cap. A falling out preventing portion for preventing the shaft from falling out the through hole is formed at the lower end of the shaft while a gap to the rear surface of the upper plate is secured. A communicating hole communicating with the gap between the shaft and the through hole when the falling out preventing portion is closely brought into contact with the rear surface of the upper plate, is provided on the falling out preventing portion. An outer circumference wall covered on the outside of the circumference wall and disposed to form a gap to the slant surface is vertically provided on the cap.
