Abstract
Abstract A through type twin capacitor of higher electric strength has been proposed. In the present capacitor, insulating covers which cover conductive rods passing through ceramic body of the capacitor is extended beyond a lower end of the insulation cover which surrounds the lower portions of the rods, in order to improve the electric strength of the capacitor.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
274 words
A through type twin capacitor comprising: a ground conductor having a plate portion and an elevated portion elevated from the plate, the elevated portion having a through hole, a column shaped ceramic bosy having a pair of separated electrodes deposited on the upper surface of the ceramic body as well as a common electrode deposited on the lower surface thereof, the ceramic body and the electrodes having two common through holes in their thickness direction, the ceramic body being mounted on the elevated portion of the ground conductor so that the common electrode faces the elevated portion, a pair of metallic caps each of which has a through hole and is mounted on the corresponding separated electrode, a pair of conductive rods penetrating the through holes of the caps, the common through holes of the ceramic body and the through hole of the elevated portion of the ground conductor, a first insulating cover of a hollow column shape attached below the ground conductor, a second insulating cover of a hollow column shape attached above the ground conductor, a pair of insulating tubes on the respective conductive rods, said tubes covering said rods from where they emerge from the bottom of said caps to a position beyond the end of the first cover, the distance d 2 by which the ends of said tubes extends beyond the end of the first cover being at least larger than the distance d 1 between the wall of the first cover and the surface of the tube opposite the wall, so as to provide extra discharge protection, and insulating fillers individually injected into the first and second covers.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
39 words
A through type twin capacitor according to claim 1, wherein respective tab terminals, which are not formed integrally with said rods, are provided for an external connection and are attached to either end of each of the conductive rods.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
58 words
A through type twin capacitor according to claim 1, wherein the conductive rods are partially coverred, above the caps, with insulating sleeves in such a way that one ends of the sleeves are embedded in the filler within the second cover, and the other ends thereof project beyond the exposed surface of the filler in the second cover.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
35 words
An through type twin capacitor according to claim 3, wherein the level of the free end of the second cover coincides with the level of the exposed surface of the filler in the second cover.
