Frame for a cell construction
Patent
·
OSTI ID:6897815
A frame for a cell construction is described wherein a membrane is clamped between two adjacent frames and a seal is effected between adjacent frames, the frame having opposite faces, a continuous peripheral groove in one of the faces. The groove is of an outline generally in accordance with but slightly smaller than the peripheral outline of an intended member and intended to receive an outer peripheral portion of a membrane and forming part of a membrane locking means, and a generally rope-like member for seating in the groove. The rope-like member is of a cross section to wedge a membrane portion in the groove and to project from the groove for compressive engagement by a next adjacent frame, and the rope-like member being formed of a resiliently deformable seal forming material whereby when two of the frames are clamped together the rope-like member will change in cross section to more tightly wedge a membrane in the groove and form a seal between the two adjacent frames with the rope-like member being disposed substantially entirely within the groove.
