A method of making an electrical terminal in a metal capacitor housing. The terminal includes a metal disc on which a metal pin is eccentrically formed. By means of the pin, a part of an insulating foil inserted between the terminal and the housing is pressed through a hole in the housing, after which the pin is riveted. The foil is removed from the end of the pin, whereby a capacitor electrode can be welded to the pin.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION What is claimed is: 1.
A method of providing a metal, electrical terminal in an end face of a cylindrical metal capacitor housing, containing a capacitor body with at least two electrodes, one of the electrodes being electrically connected to the capacitor housing, the other electrode being electrically connected to the terminal electrically insulated from the capacitor housing, comprising the steps of providing a capacitor housing end face made of metal and at least partly covered by an electrically insulating foil; pushing a portion of said foil through an opening in said end face by means of a pin, thereby providing said terminal through and insulated from said end face; removing said foil from the end of the pin pressed through said opening; and connecting one of said electrodes to said terminal.
2.
A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein said terminal includes a disc having a pin eccentrically formed thereon.
3.
A method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising the step of riveting said terminal in the capacitor housing.
4.
A method as claimed in claim 1, further comprising the step of inserting a teflon foil between said terminal and said capacitor housing.
5.
A method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising the step of inserting a rubber foil between said terminal and said capacitor housing.
6.
A method as claimed in claim 1 wherein said foil is weakened at the area where the foil covers the tip of said pin.




Description:
The invention relates to a method of providing a metal, electrical terminal in an end face of a cylindrical metal capacitor housing, containing a capacitor body with at least two electrodes, one of the electrodes being electrically connected to the capacitor housing, while the other electrode is electrically connected to the terminal which is electrically insulated from the capacitor housing.
According to a known method of the kind set forth, the terminals are provided in an electrically insulating disc which is fixed in the capacitor housing by making a circumferential groove in the capacitor housing underneath the disc and by peening over the edge of the capacitor housing
