Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
90 words
A cell comprising a ceramic frame defining an opening and having a top surface and a bottom surface; a first conductive terminal sheet solder secured to and closing the bottom surface of the frame; a second conductive terminal sheet solder secured to and closing the top surface of the frame; and an anode, an electrolyte and cathode assembly within the opening of the frame and arranged so that the anode makes electrical contact with one conductive terminal sheet and the cathode makes electrical contact with the other conductive terminal sheet.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
90 words
A cell comprising a ceramic frame defining an opening and having a top surface and a bottom surface; a first conductive terminal sheet solder secured to and closing the bottom surface of the frame; a second conductive terminal sheet solder secured to and closing the top surface of the frame; and an anode, an electrolyte and cathode assembly within the opening of the frame and arranged so that the anode makes electrical contact with one conductive terminal sheet and the cathode makes electrical contact with the other conductive terminal sheet.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
17 words
The cell of claim 1 wherein the anode is lithium, and the cathode is MnO 2 .
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
18 words
The cell of claim 1 wherein the first conductive terminal sheet and second conductive terminal sheet are copper.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
49 words
The cell of claim 1 wherein one of the conductive terminal sheets has an extended tab that extends over and onto the other conductive terminal sheet and said tab is insulated from the other conductive terminal sheet so that both terminals are on the same side of the cell.
