Abstract
Abstract Electrolytic capacitors 14 having terminals 15, 16 on one base face and a fixing frame at the other end part are inserted in bags made of air-bubble plastic sheet of tubular shape whose one end is welded to form an end and further having a terminal-protection part 13 made by folding the end part of the bag and welded to the welded part 12, and the bags 11 containing the electrolytic capacitor 14 are compactly packed in a box 18 of corrugated cardboard in alternating direction and flaps 191, 191, 192, 192 are closed and sealed; the electrolytic capacitors 14 having delicate terminals 15, 16 are safely and compactly packed in the box 18, and the terminals 15, 16 and the bent part of the fixing frames 17, are safely isolated by the bag.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
146 words
Package of electrolytic capacitors having terminals on one base face, comprising: a plurality of bags made of air-bubble plastic sheet, each bag being shaped as a tube having an opening at one end for inserting said electrolytic capacitor therethrough, a transverse weld at the other end closing the other end of said bag and a terminal-protection part which is disposed beyond said weld and formed by folding the other end of said air-bubble plastic sheet and traversely welding the folded end to define a cushion member for protecting the terminals of said electrolytic capacitor, and a cardboard box with lid flaps for fittingly containing said plurality of bags each with one electrolytic capacitor disposed therein so that said terminals of said electrolytic capacitors are adjacent the closed end of the bag, and enclosing said plurality of bags with said electrolytic capacitors by closing said lid flaps.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
146 words
Package of electrolytic capacitors having terminals on one base face, comprising: a plurality of bags made of air-bubble plastic sheet, each bag being shaped as a tube having an opening at one end for inserting said electrolytic capacitor therethrough, a transverse weld at the other end closing the other end of said bag and a terminal-protection part which is disposed beyond said weld and formed by folding the other end of said air-bubble plastic sheet and traversely welding the folded end to define a cushion member for protecting the terminals of said electrolytic capacitor, and a cardboard box with lid flaps for fittingly containing said plurality of bags each with one electrolytic capacitor disposed therein so that said terminals of said electrolytic capacitors are adjacent the closed end of the bag, and enclosing said plurality of bags with said electrolytic capacitors by closing said lid flaps.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
183 words
Package of electrolytic capacitors having terminals on one base face and a fixing frame on the other face, comprising: a plurality of bags made of air-bubble plastic sheet, each bag being shaped as a tube having an opening at one end for inserting said electrolytic capacitor thereinto, a transverse weld at the other end closing the other end of said bag and a terminal-protection part which is disposed beyond said weld and formed by folding the other end of said air-bubble plastic sheet and transversely welding the folded end to define a cushion member for protecting the terminals of said electrolytic capacitor, and a cardboard box with lid flaps for fittingly containing said plurality of bags each with one electrolytic capacitor disposed therein so that said terminals of said electrolytic capacitor are adjacent the closed end and said fixing frame is adjacent the open end of the bag and said terminal-projection parts of adjacent bags are arranged alternately thereby arranging said fixing frame of adjacent electrolytic capacitors alternately, and enclosing said plurality of bags with said electrolytic capacitors by closing said lid flaps.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
183 words
Package of electrolytic capacitors having terminals on one base face and a fixing frame on the other face, comprising: a plurality of bags made of air-bubble plastic sheet, each bag being shaped as a tube having an opening at one end for inserting said electrolytic capacitor thereinto, a transverse weld at the other end closing the other end of said bag and a terminal-protection part which is disposed beyond said weld and formed by folding the other end of said air-bubble plastic sheet and transversely welding the folded end to define a cushion member for protecting the terminals of said electrolytic capacitor, and a cardboard box with lid flaps for fittingly containing said plurality of bags each with one electrolytic capacitor disposed therein so that said terminals of said electrolytic capacitor are adjacent the closed end and said fixing frame is adjacent the open end of the bag and said terminal-projection parts of adjacent bags are arranged alternately thereby arranging said fixing frame of adjacent electrolytic capacitors alternately, and enclosing said plurality of bags with said electrolytic capacitors by closing said lid flaps.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
37 words
Package of electrolytic capacitors in accordance with claim 1 or claim 2, wherein said terminal protection part is formed by forming a second weld which is substantially parallel to, beyond and spaced from said bag closing weld.
