Abstract
Abstract A wafer-type capacitor of the voltage multiplying type having a plurality of conducting secondary plates, with each of said plates in parallel with one of a pair of input primary plates, and with sheets of dielectric material interposed between the primary and secondary plates and combined with a dielectric adhesive to form a wafer configuration, wherein each secondary plate associated with one of the primary plates is directionally coupled to an opposed secondary plate associated with the other primary plate in order to provide a voltage multiplying capacitor in a wafer configuration.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
99 words
A multiplying condenser comprising the assembly of an insulating support means, a pair of separate elongated conductive strips mounted in spaced side-by-side relation on the support means, a plurality of discrete electrodes spaced along each of the respective strips in superposed capacitively coupled relation therewith, each of the strips and electrodes being provided with terminals protruding beyond the edges of the support, insulating sheet means extending over the electrodes without covering the terminals, and means for securing the sheet means to the underlying support means to maintain the strips and electrodes in assembled relation therebetween with the terminals exposed.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
99 words
A multiplying condenser comprising the assembly of an insulating support means, a pair of separate elongated conductive strips mounted in spaced side-by-side relation on the support means, a plurality of discrete electrodes spaced along each of the respective strips in superposed capacitively coupled relation therewith, each of the strips and electrodes being provided with terminals protruding beyond the edges of the support, insulating sheet means extending over the electrodes without covering the terminals, and means for securing the sheet means to the underlying support means to maintain the strips and electrodes in assembled relation therebetween with the terminals exposed.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
46 words
A multiplying condenser in accordance with claim 1 wherein the means for securing the sheet means to the underlying support means comprises a dielectric sheet between the conductive strips and electrodes adhesively secured to the support means and to the insulating sheet means overlying the electrodes.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
43 words
A multiplying condenser in accordance with claim 2 wherein the support means and the insulating sheet means extend beyond the edges of the conductive strips and electrodes whereby the assembly is sealed by the adhesion of the support means and insulating sheet means.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
70 words
A multiplying condenser according to claim 1 including, a plurality of condenser assemblies in stacked relation, each assembly having the structure of claim 1, said insulating sheet means of each condenser assembly of the stack forming the insulating support means for the condenser assembly thereabove, the respective terminals of the strips and electrodes of each of the condenser assemblies being in superposed relation with corresponding ones in the other layers.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
45 words
A multiplying condenser according to claim 4 wherein the means for securing the sheet means to the underlying support means comprises a dielectric sheet between the conductive strips and electrodes adhesively secured to the support means and to the insulating sheet means overlying the electrodes.
