Title: Method and device for filling the cells of a battery with electrolyte

Patent ·
OSTI ID:5577879

A method is described of filling the cells of a battery with an electrolyte contained in a remote reservoir having partitioned dual chambers comprising application of heat to the reservoir. The reservoir and the battery are interconnected by a conduit having a frangible seal therein such that transference of electrolyte is occasioned by the heat induced contraction of the reservoir, rupturing of the seal under fluid pressure and flow of electrolyte from the reservoir into the battery cells.
