Abstract

Abstract An electrolyzer is disclosed in which the anode plates have their vertical edges flanged and are fixed on separate space tubular frames. Each of the frames comprises two single separate sections and a twinned section between the two single separate sections. Each of the following space tubular frames arranged in the direction of run of the cathode ribbon is longer than the preceding one. Each of the frame sections comprises tubes having bubblers in their lower portions for introducing air to the electrolyzing tank, to thereby agitate the electrolyte.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 106 words
A loop electrolyzer for producing metal strip, comprising: a container for holding a bath of electrolyte; a plurality of top driven current-carrying drums mounted on the sides of said container; a plurality of bottom tension drums located inside said container and rotating on journals; a cathode ribbon movably passing in between said top driven drums and said bottom tension drums; a plurality of anode plates having their vertical edges flanged and each attAched to separate detachabley mounted frames arranged consecutively in the direction of travel of said cathode ribbon inside said container, each of said frames comprising single separate sections and a twinned section disposed therebetween.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 106 words
A loop electrolyzer for producing metal strip, comprising: a container for holding a bath of electrolyte; a plurality of top driven current-carrying drums mounted on the sides of said container; a plurality of bottom tension drums located inside said container and rotating on journals; a cathode ribbon movably passing in between said top driven drums and said bottom tension drums; a plurality of anode plates having their vertical edges flanged and each attAched to separate detachabley mounted frames arranged consecutively in the direction of travel of said cathode ribbon inside said container, each of said frames comprising single separate sections and a twinned section disposed therebetween.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 38 words
The loop electrolyzer as claimed in claim 1, wherein said twinned section is provided with retainers which engage detents disposed on adjacent ones of said separate sections and the journals of respective ones of said bottom tension drums.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 24 words
The loop electrolyzer as claimed in claim 1, wherein each of the successively located frames in said container is longer than the preceding one.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 34 words
The loop electrolyzer as claimed in claim 1, wherein said separate sections and twinned section of each of said frames comprise tubes having in their lower portions bubblers for feeding air for electrolyte stirring.
