Quasi-fluid storage battery

Patent ·
OSTI ID:5010025
A storage battery is described comprising: a casing; negative globules at least partially made out of a cathodic active substance; positive globules at least partially made out of an anodic active substance; appropriate electrolyte for interacting with the negative and the positive globules; at least one negative compartment close-packed exclusively with the negative globules in the electrolyte; at least one positive compartment close-packed exclusively with the positive globules in the electrolyte, and positioned adjacent to and in contact with negative compartment so that the combination of the negative and the positive compartments in tendem, form a battery storage cell; negative and positive electrode terminals on the casing; and at least two conductive separators allowing relatively free passage to the electrolyte and establishing electrical continuity between two cells or between the compartments at the ends of the casing and the terminals of the casing.
