Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
100 words
A DEVICE FOR FORMING BIPOLAR BATTERY PLATES WHICH ARE BIPOLAR WITH RESPECT TO AT LEAST ONE MAJOR SURFACE THEREOF, SAID DEVICE COMPRISING A CONTAINER, MEANS IN SAID CONTAINER FOR SUPPORTING AT LEAST TWO OF SAID BIPOLAR PLATES IN SPACED ARRANGEMENT WITH SAID BIPOLAR MAJOR SURFACES IN A GENERALLY PARALLEL, FACING RELATIONSHIP WHEREBY CORRESPONDING PORTIONS THEREOF ARE GENERALLY ALIGNED, A FORMING ELECTRODE FOR NONCONTIGUOUS DISPOSITION BETWEEN THE NEGATIVE PORTIONS OF SAID FACING BIPOLAR PLATES, A FORMING ELECTRODE FOR NONCONTIGUOUS DISPOSITION BETWEEN THE POSITIVE PORTIONS OF SAID FACING BIPOLAR PLATES, AND MEANS FOR APPLYING NEGATIVE AND POSITIVE POTENTIALS, RESPECTIVELY, TO SAID ELECTRODES.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
100 words

Claim 3
Independent Claim
149 words
A METHOD OF MAKING A BIPOLAR ELECTRODE WHICH HAS POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE ELECTRODE MATERIALS ON THE SAME SURFACE THEREOF, SAID METHOD COMRPISING THE STEPS OF APPLYING A PRECURSOR OF A POSITIVE ELECTRODE MATERIAL TO A FIRST PORTION OF A SURFACE OF A CONDUCTIVE SUPPORT, APPLYING A PRECURSOR OF A NEGATIVE ELECTRODE MATERIAL TO A SECOND PORTION OF SAID SURFACE, SAID MATERIALS BEING LATERALLY SPACED FROM ONE ANOTHER ON SAID SURFACE SO AS TO BE NONCONTIGUOUS TO ONE ANOTHER, IMMERSING SAID SUPPORT IN A FORMING ELECTROLYTE, IMMERSING A FIRST ELECTRODE IN SAID ELECTROYTE ADJACENT THE POSITIVE ELECTRODE MATERIAL ON SAID SUPPORT, IMMRSING A SECOND ELECTRODE IN SAID ELECTROLYTE ADJACENT THE NEGATIVE ELECTRODE MATERIAL ON SAID SUPPORT, AND THEREAFTER APPLYING POSIIVE AND NEGATIVE POTENTIALS, RESPECTIVELY, TO SAID FIRST AND SECOND ELECTRODES TO SIMULTANEOUSLY ELECTROLYZE BOTH MATERIALS ON SAID SUPPORT, WHEREIN SAID SUPPORT PROVIDES ELECTRON COMMUNICATION BETWEEN SAID MATERIALS FOR THE ELECTROLYSIS.
Claim 4
