Abstract A metallized film capacitor formed by laminating or winding a metallized film 1 with metal evaporated electrode on one or both sides thereof so that a pair of metal evaporated electrodes 2 are opposite to each other, wherein electrode lead-out portions 3 are provided at both ends of the capacitor, each metal evaporated electrode is composed of a low resistance area abutting on the electrode lead-out portion and a remaining high resistance area having higher resistance than it, a split electrode pattern with a plurality of minute blocks 8 formed in a longitudinal direction and width direction and fusing areas 9 between the adjacent minute blocks is formed on at least one of the metal evaporated electrodes, and electrode partitioning lines 7 are formed at regular intervals in a longitudinal direction of the film. The metallized film is fabricated by depositing substance such as oil for preventing evaporation of metal on the evaporation side of a plastic film 10 through a rotary screen cylinder with any pattern formed by mesh processing and immediately thereafter depositing evaporated metal, thereby forming a split fuse pattern serving as a safeguard mechanism during high speed evaporation.
A metallized film capacitor, comprising: a plurality of metallized films, each of said metallized films including a dielectric film and a metal evaporated electrode formed on one or both sides of said dielectric film, wherein a pair of said metal evaporated electrodes are disposed opposite each other through said dielectric film by laminating or winding said metallized films to form a capacitor element; and a pair of electrode lead-out portions disposed on both ends of said capacitor element; wherein each of said metal evaporated electrodes has a lower resistance area abutting on the electrode lead-out portions and a remaining high resistance area having higher resistance than said lower resistance area; wherein at least one of said pair of metal evaporated electrodes has a split electrode pattern with a plurality of minute blocks formed in a longitudinal direction and width direction and with fusing areas between adjacent minute blocks; and wherein electrode partitioning lines are formed at regular intervals in a longitudinal direction of each of the metallized films.
