Clamp for securing large can-type capacitors to a circuit chassis

摘要

A clamping arrangement for securing a can-type capacitor (40) to a chassis surface (33) comprises two tie rods (31, 32) each having a clamping arrangement at one end (12, 17) and locking means (16) to engage with a slot (20) in the chassis surface at the other end. The tie rod is engaged with the slots in the chassis surface and the clamp engages the can capacitor. A fastener (17) operates through a fulcrum hinge (13) of the clamp to apply pressure to the can to firmly secure the can capacitor to the chassis surface.
