US Patent 7239499 Capacitor assembly with a thermal insulation apparatus

A thermal insulation apparatus for a capacitor and the capacitor with the thermal insulation apparatus is provided. The thermal insulation apparatus includes a basis, a thermal baffle is stretched upwards from a side wall of the basis, a bracket is connected with a inner wall of the basis. The basis and the bracket form a cavity to hold the capacitor. The thermal insulation apparatus can isolate the capacitor from external heat sources. After assembly, a distance lies between the bracket and the basis of the thermal insulation apparatus so that the capacitor can eliminate heat efficiently.
