Duplex electrode construction using continuous metal carrier strip coated on both sides with conductive adhesive

Abstract

Abstract A DEPLEX ELECTRODE IS CONSTRUCTED BY FIRST COATING BOTH SIDES OF A CONTINUOUS METAL CARRIER STRIP WITH ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE ADHESIVE MATERIAL AND THEN PLACING INTERMITTENT DEPOSITS OF POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE ELECTRODES ON OPPOSITE SIDES OF THE COATED CARRIER STRIP. THE DUPLEX ELECTRODE IS THEN ASSEMBLED INTO A MULTICELL BATTERY. THE ASSEMBLY PREFERABLY OCCURS WHILE THE DEPLEX ELECTRODES ARE STRUCTURALLY AND ELECTRICALLY CONNECTED BY THE CONTINUOUS CARRIER STRIP FTER WHICH THE CARRIER STRIP IS SUBSTANQUENTLY CUT BETWEEN DEPLEX ELECTRODES TO OBTAIN STRUCTURALLY AND ELECTRICALLY UNCONNECTED BATTERIES. ALTERNATIVELY, THE CARRIER STRIP MAY BE CUT BETWEEN DUPLEX ELECTRODES BEFORE THOSE ELECTRODES ARE ASSEMBLED INTO MULTICELL BATTERIES. PREFERABLY, THE CARRIER STRIP IS ZINC, ALUMINUM, OR STEEL.
