This invention relates to packing methods and materials for packing electrolytic capacitors and the like. This invention provides packing methods whereby capacitors are held in a container tray with a good order and with no rotational movement of capacitor and packing materials wherein packing of electrolytic capacitors solves the problem of capacitor rotation and allows the capacitors to be easily taken out of the container tray. According to this invention, an electrolytic capacitor loaded container tray is taken out of a receptacle and the electrolytic capacitors held in the container tray in an orderly manner can be smoothly picked up for automatic mounting on printed wiring boards.
A capacitor packing method comprising the steps of:
Capacitor packing materials comprising a container tray including a plurality of container hollows for containing capacitors formed therein, and terminal protecting sections formed under bottoms of said container hollows for holding anode and cathode lead terminals of said capacitors and restricting the rotational movement of said lead terminals, said terminal protecting sections having a length extending from a top surface to a bottom surface and including two recesses extending along the length of the terminal protecting sections.
Capacitor packing materials according to claim 4, wherein said container tray includes a plurality of shock absorbing hollows formed along periphery of the container tray by monolithic molding.
Capacitor packing materials comprising:
A container tray for aligning the polarity of anode and cathode lead terminals of a plurality of electrical devices comprising a plurality of container hollows disposed to receive said electrical devices, and a plurality of terminal protecting sections formed proximate to each of said container hollows for holding said anode and cathode lead terminals of said electrical devices in a manner to maintain predetermined polarity alignment of said electrical devices within said container tray;
Electrolytic capacitor packing materials comprising a container tray having a plurality of approximately cylindrical container hollows for containing vertically cylindrical electrolytic capacitors, each of which has both anode and cathode lead terminals appearing only on one end of each said electrolytic capacitor, formed therein, and terminal retaining sections which are formed under bottoms of said container hollows for holding anode and cathode lead terminals of said electrolytic capacitors, said terminal retaining sections comprising means for restricting the rotational movement of said electrolytic capacitors and comprised of two terminal holding sub-sections for said anode and cathode lead terminals and two walls connecting between said two terminal holding sub-sections and arcing outwardly in a circular arc to serve as shock absorbing sub-sections.
