The present invention relates to devices, and particularly to improvements in electrical connection methods.

以下本考案の一実施例を図面に基づき説明する

６とより構成されている。 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a cathode replaceable air-zinc unit battery. A battery container 4 has an air electrode terminal 2' exposed in a recess 3 formed in the battery case 4, and a zinc electrode 5 that is removably attached to the battery container is vertically disposed. It is comprised of a battery case lid 6 formed by extending a child 5'.

ている。 When a plurality of unit batteries having such a structure are assembled into an assembled battery, as shown in FIG. Stack tightly in the direction.
Each battery case is designed to have a lower width narrower than an upper part, so that a gap 7 for air intake is formed between the battery cases. Then, when a battery case lid is attached to each battery case, the end of the zinc electrode terminal 5'A extending from the battery case cover 6A is inserted between the adjacent battery case 4B as shown in Fig. 3. It contacts and is electrically connected to the air terminal 2'B of the battery case 4B. Incidentally, a protrusion 8 is formed at the end of the zinc electrode terminal 5'A in order to firmly maintain contact between the terminals.

に操作が煩雑となるものであつた。 Now, in this type of conventional battery assembly device, the air terminal is extended to the end face of the adjacent battery case,
A method has been adopted in which electrical connection is made by connecting the zinc electrode terminal hanging from the adjacent battery case lid using a wing nut at such a position, but this makes the structure complicated and the operation complicated. Ta.

これに対し本考案装置に依れば電槽蓋の装置と
同時に隣接電池と電気接続しうるものであり、簡
単な構造で且電気接続を簡易に行いうる利点を奏
する。 On the other hand, according to the device of the present invention, it is possible to electrically connect to the adjacent battery at the same time as the device for the battery case lid, and has the advantage of having a simple structure and being able to easily perform the electrical connection.

又、従来構造に比して空気極端子は空気極を取
付けた電池電槽の一側面の上部に形成した凹所に
露出するように形設するのみでよいため、長さを
極めて短縮しうるため電気抵抗が小さくなる。 Additionally, compared to the conventional structure, the air electrode terminal only needs to be exposed in a recess formed at the top of one side of the battery case to which the air electrode is attached, so the length can be significantly shortened. Therefore, the electrical resistance becomes smaller.

更に電池電槽の端面には隣接電池間を電気接続
するための端子受台やリード線が存在しないため
集合電池装置本体の小型化が計れる。 Furthermore, since there are no terminal holders or lead wires for electrically connecting adjacent batteries on the end face of the battery container, the main body of the battery assembly can be downsized.

尚、電槽蓋と電槽との固定については一般に利
用されているようにクランプ金具等で簡易に行い
うる。 Incidentally, the battery case lid and the battery case can be easily fixed using a commonly used clamp fitting or the like.

上述した如く本考案による集合電池装置は電気
接続を簡易に行いうると共に操用性に優れ更に小
型化が計れるものであり極めて実用的価値大なる
ものである。 As mentioned above, the assembled battery device according to the present invention allows easy electrical connection, is excellent in operability, and can be miniaturized, so it has great practical value.
