An anode assembly for a capacitor is described. The anode assembly comprises a first anode including a first conductive lead disposed in a first groove in a junction bar, a second anode including a second conductive lead disposed in a second groove in the junction bar, and an anode terminal lead disposed in a third groove in the junction bar. The capacitor including the anode assembly is further comprised of a cathode comprising a conductive substrate supporting a cathode active material facing the first and second anodes, and a separator positioned there between to prevent the first and second anodes and the cathode from contacting each other. The anode assembly, the cathode, and the separator are sealed inside of a casing, and the casing is filled with a working electrolyte.

Interconnections for multiple capacitor anode leads

An apparatus and method for cutting and heat sealing separator materials enveloping individually shaped electrode is described. The electrodes can be cathodes, anodes or other active components for incorporation into batteries, capacitors, and other implantable medical devices.
