Plate grid in use for a plate for a lead storage battery

Patent ·
OSTI ID:7195832
A plate grid for use in a plate for a lead storage battery is described. It contains a woven member having several spaced latitudinal wire members of acid-resisting material and several spaced longitudinal wire members which are woven together. The longitudinal wire members each include a wire element of acid-resisting material and a wire element of electrically conductive material selected from a group consisting of lead and lead alloy. The electrically conductive wire element is wound around acid-resisting wire element of the longitudinal wire member. The grid also contains a collector of electrically conductive material selected from a group consisting of lead and lead alloy. The collector is attached to one of the ends of the longitudinal wire members, whereby the collector is electrically connected to the electrically conductive wire elements of the longitudinal wire members.
