  • CELL DESIGN FOR AN ALKALINE BATTERY WITH CHANNELS IN ELECTRODES TO REMOVE GAS
    Publication number: 20150162601
    Abstract: Provided is an alkaline battery comprising at least one positive electrode and at least one negative electrode with a separator disposed therebetween, with at least one of the electrodes having alternating areas that are raised and lowered to create gaps between the electrode and the separator. In one embodiment, the battery comprises a positive nickel electrode and a negative iron electrode.

  • CONCAVE CELL DESIGN FOR AN ALKALINE BATTERY WITH A COMB SPACER
    Publication number: 20150162571
    Abstract: Provided is an alkaline battery comprising an electrode stack having at least one positive electrode and at least one negative electrode with a separator disposed therebetween and a spacer between the tabs of similarly polarized electrodes of the electrode stack, which is contained in a cell casing that applies greater pressure to the middle of the electrodes and less pressure to the edges of the electrode stack. In one embodiment, the battery is a nickel-iron battery. In one embodiment, the spacers between the tabs of similarly polarized electrodes are the teeth of a comb structure.

  • CELL DESIGN FOR AN ALKALINE BATTERY TO REMOVE GAS
    Publication number: 20150162572
    Abstract: Provided is an alkaline battery wherein the cell casing has a concave shape and the middle of the cell casing creates greater pressure on the middle of the electrode stack than at the edges of the electrode stack. In one embodiment, the battery comprises a positive nickel electrode and a negative iron electrode.
