Patent ID: 7085126

Claim:
A capacitor, which comprises: a) a first casing portion comprising a first face wall supporting a first surrounding sidewall and a second casing portion comprising a second face wall, wherein the first casing portion is securable to the second casing portion to provide an enclosure for the capacitor; b) a cathode active material supported by, and in electrical contact with, the first and second face walls; c) an anode comprising an anode sidewall extending to first and second major face walls positioned adjacent to the cathode active material on the first and second face walls; d) a separator positioned intermediate the anode and the cathode active material on the first and second face walls; e) a glass-to-metal seal supported in at least one of the first and second casing portions to electrically insulate the anode lead from the enclosure serving as the cathode terminal; f) a cradle disposed between the anode sidewall and the first and second casing portions to prevent the anode from moving inside the enclosure when the capacitor is subjected to shock and vibration forces; and g) a working electrolyte provided in the enclosure in contact with the anode and cathode active material.
