Abstract: The invention relates to a sodium-sulphur electric cell. It comprises a cathode tank containing sulphur, a solid electrolyte tube being disposed in this tank and containing sodium, said cathode tank being lined with a continuous strip of felt or fabric, more particularly of graphite wound in a spiral one of whose ends is in contact with the wall of the cathode tank, at least one of the turns of said spiral having a plurality of holes, the other end of the strip being in contact with either the electrolyte tube or a conductive grid surrounding the tube and disposed at a predetermined distance from that tube. The invention is implemented in electric vehicles.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electric cell of the sodium-sulphur type particularly adapted for undergoing complete recharging. It comprises a cathode tank containing sulphur, an anode tank containing sodium, these reagents being separated by a solid electrolyte tube disposed in said cathode tank fitted with graphite felt washers ensuring cathode collection of the current generated, wherein said electrolyte tube is surrounded by a grating which is connectable to the negative terminal of the recharging current source by means of a resistor. The invention is used in cells for electric vehicles.

It comprises a cathode tank containing sulphur, an anode tank containing sodium, these reagents being separated by a solid electrolyte tube disposed in said cathode tank which is fitted with graphite felt washers ensuring cathode collection of the current generated, wherein some washers are disposed to have an edge distant from the wall of said electrolyte tube in order to avoid depositing sulphur on said tube during recharging. The invention is used in electric cells for electric vehicles.
