Assignee: WOLFGANG WESTERMANN
Field: Electrical machinery, apparatus, energy (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A film capacitor for power electronics, comprising:
a first electrically conductive layer, which is arranged on a first end side face of the film capacitor, the surface normal of the first electrically conductive layer being perpendicular to the surface normals of dielectric films of the film capacitor;
a second electrically conductive layer, which is arranged on a second end side face opposite from the first end side face, wherein the surface normal of the second electrically conductive layer is perpendicular to the surface normals of the dielectric films of the film capacitor, wherein the film capacitor comprises at least one inner passage, which extends from the first electrically conductive layer to the second electrically conductive layer, wherein the passage is formed by removal of capacitor material; and
an electrically conductive connection guided from the first electrically conductive layer on the first end side face of the film capacitor, through the inner passage, to the second end side face of the film capacitor, and
wherein the film capacitor is a flat-wound or stacked capacitor.
