  • Patent number: 8048558
    Abstract: A nickel-zinc battery cell is formed with a negative can, a positive cap, and a jelly roll of electrochemically active positive and negative materials within. The inner surface of the can is protected with an anticorrosive material that may be coated or plated onto the can. Good electrical contact between the jelly roll and the cap is achieved through folding the nickel substrate over to contact a positive current collection disk.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 4197079
    Abstract: Crinkle-free tube bends can be produced by introducing a flexible core into the straight tube length to be bent, bending the tube length around movable templates at the optimum thermoforming temperature and, while bending, laying an extensible insert between the tube length and the bending template.
