Claims
- 1. A capacitor assembly comprising a container having a bottom and an open end, a capacitor body carried in said container including a centrally disposed hollow core having a bore composed of a plurality of substantially flat intersecting surfaces forming a hexagon and a cup-shaped member carried on said bottom and having a centrally disposed spike extending into said hollow core and engaging said substantially flat intersecting surfaces forming a hexagon to lock said spike in place, means closing said open end, and means for electrically connecting said capacitor body to an electrical current.
- 2. A capacitor assembly according to claim 1 further comprising a second cup-shaped member carried at said open end and having a second spike engaging said hollow core and engaging said substantially flat intersecting surfaces forming a hexagon to lock said spike in place, and holding means to maintain said second cup-shaped member in an axial fixed position.
- 3. A capacitor assembly according to claim 2 wherein said holding means comprises at least two dimples provided in said container and engaging said second cup-shaped member.
- 4. A capacitor assembly according to claim 2 wherein said second cup-shaped member and said second spike are integrally constructed of an electrically insulative material.
- 5. A capacitor assembly according to claim 1 wherein said cup-shaped member and said spike are integrally constructed of an electrically insulative material.
