Abstract
A capacitor cascade is disclosed comprising a columnar array of ceramic disk capacitors, each consisting of a ceramic disk with metal electrodes on opposite surfaces thereof. A metal electric connecting part is positioned between adjacent capacitors and is in electrical contact with the opposed electrodes. The connecting parts are resilient. The capacitor cascade is secured together. The connecting parts are each comprised of a base part and elements extending from the base part into engagement with the opposed capacitor electrodes. In one embodiment, each connecting part is deformed to define feet extending toward each of the opposed electrodes. In another embodiment, each connecting part is shaped to define tongues and the connecting part is folded into a generally 'S' shape, wherein each tongue engages a respective one of the opposed electrodes. In the latter case, the tongues may be shaped so as to define spacing limitations for limiting the extent to which the tongues may deflect toward each other.
