LEAD STORAGE BATTERY MANUFACTURING PROCESS AND MECHANICAL DESIGN Russian patent published in 1997 - IPC

FIELD: manufacture of bipolar-electrode chemical power supplies. SUBSTANCE: separator plates are placed in rows on electrode plates with clearance of 0.1-0.4 mm between them, then assembly is stuck together over longitudinal edges of separator plates and adhesive fills clearances between them. Device has case, electrode blocks assembled in zigzag manner into stack, current collectors, electrolyte. Case is split into two halves each having partitions with holes along its center line; electrode blocks are arranged in case halves so that points of sticking of separator plates are aligned with respective holes in partitions. EFFECT: improved compactness and specific electrical characteristics. 2 cl, 3 dwg
