US Patent 7522403 High current-load film capacitor assembly

A multilayer polymer film capacitor block, adapted to accept high currents. At least one multilayer polymer film capacitor is fit into a cavity defined in a rigid, thermally conductive structure. The cavity is sized and shaped to receive said multilayer polymer film capacitor when said capacitor is at a temperature below 40° C., but fitting said capacitor in a conformal manner so that as said capacitor is raised to temperatures above 40° C., said cavity constrains expansion of said capacitor.
