Abstract
Abstract A capacitor for AC voltage applications consists of staggered wound layers of synthetic material films metallized on both sides. The metallizations are carried out on the two sides of the films with differing thicknesses, wherein at least the greater thickness metallization is contacted by means of Schoop layers. The exposed edges on the two sides of the films are provided with different widths, wherein the difference corresponds with a staggering of the films during winding.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
152 words
A regenerable AC electric capacitor which comprises wound-on layers of synthetic films provided on both sides with a metallization in direct layer contact with the synthetic films, exposed edge regions of the films not covered by metallization being arranged at opposite edges, one region on each of the two sides of the film, end-side contact layers connecting with the metallizations, said synthetic films being wound on with adjacent films being laterally offset with respect to one another and that the exposed edge regions on the two sides of the film surfaces have differing widths, the metallization on one side having a conductance substantially different than the metallization on the other side of the synthetic films, the metallizations comprising aluminum and the synthetic films polypropylene, and the metallizations of higher conductances being connected to said end-side contact layers and the metallizations of lower conductances are not directly connected to said end-side contact layers.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
152 words
A regenerable AC electric capacitor which comprises wound-on layers of synthetic films provided on both sides with a metallization in direct layer contact with the synthetic films, exposed edge regions of the films not covered by metallization being arranged at opposite edges, one region on each of the two sides of the film, end-side contact layers connecting with the metallizations, said synthetic films being wound on with adjacent films being laterally offset with respect to one another and that the exposed edge regions on the two sides of the film surfaces have differing widths, the metallization on one side having a conductance substantially different than the metallization on the other side of the synthetic films, the metallizations comprising aluminum and the synthetic films polypropylene, and the metallizations of higher conductances being connected to said end-side contact layers and the metallizations of lower conductances are not directly connected to said end-side contact layers.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
37 words
An electric capacitor as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that the sides of the films which are provided with less conductive metallizations have wider exposed edge regions than sides of the films with higher conductive metallizations.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
30 words
An electric capacitor as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that the difference between the widths of the exposed edge regions corresponds to the lateral offset of the adjacent films.
