METHOD OF MAKING DRY CELLS.
I Application filed June 18, 1920. Serial No. 390,020.
T 0 all whom it may concern Be itknown thatI, HAROLD on OLANETA,
a citizen of the United States, residing in New Haven, New l laven County, Connecticut, have invented. certain new and useful Improvements inMethods of 'MakingDry Cells, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to the manufacture of dry cells and it has more particular reference to the making of a cell herein the carbon pencil located within a zinc. cup carrie'sa body orcartridge of depolarizing material. The invention .also pertainsespecially to the tamping of the depolarizing material or so-called depolarizing mix about the carbon electrode so that it will adhere to the same in the form of a body or mass ployed to advantage in thetamping of de-.
polarizing or other material in dry cells of other types Without departure from the prescut invention pects. v
One of the primary objects ofthe invention is to provide an improved method oftainping the depolarizin material.
Another object w 'ch I have in view is to furnish a method which-is admirably adapted to the manufacture of dry cells of the in certain of its phases or .as-
type in which a depolarizing cartridge surrounds the carbon the member, but does not extend to the top of i such-electrode, the upper end of the electrode being disposed or embedded within a suitable top closure for the cell, such as a pitch seal or the like.
In the manufacture of dry cells of the kind to which I have referred, the fimping pressure is usually under the control of the Operator, the machine being in the nature of a drop press, and owing to variations in: pressure and in the kind and condition of t e mixture being treated difier'ent cells will have the material packed dissimilarly Within certain limits. In other words, as conditions are variable, the depolarizi of one cell ay be, packed more tight y for pencil or other electrode mix p from the die;
example than thatof another cell. Another factor which is encountered in practice is a variation in length of the carbon pencilsf Very often these will pass inspection when they are say a sixteenth of an inch longer or shorter than they should be. As a result of bling of the cell, owing to the fact that the top closure has to be somewhat differently located in differentcells of the same; size, and there is apt to be considerable variation in the cells themselves, which is a matter of serious disadvantage, as it is important that the cells should be of standard size.
One of the objects of my invention is to overcome the above mentioned drawbacks by providing a tamping method whereby the upper end portions of the various cells of the same size may be more readily made of the same shape, size and construction.
Another object of the invention is to provide a method of tamping, wherein the breakage of the carbon pencils, and more I particularly of the projecting ends of such' pencils, is reduced to a minimum.
Another-object is to provide a method of v which can be practicedwith neattampin ness and despatch and wherein in particular the projecting end of the carbon can be readily kept clear of any adhering depolarizing material which would interfere with the placing of the brass contact cap on top of the electrode, or cause corrosion.
To these and other ends the invention consists in the novel features and procedure to be hereinafter described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawing:
Fig. .1 is a vertical central section of a dry cell having a depolarizing cartridge formed by my improved method;
Fig. 2 is a detail view of the carbon pencil and spacing member;
Fig. 3 is a diagrammatic sectional view showing the commencement of the tamping operation;

E g. 5 shows the parts as they are removed Fig. 6 shows the pencil with the adhering body of depolarizing material as the article is removed from the die; and
Fig. 7 is a somewhat diagrammatic vertical section on a smaller scale of the tamping plunger. t
In the dry cell shown in Fig. 1, the zinc cup 7 contains the usual central carbon pencil or electrode 8, to which adheres a cartridge body or mass 9 of depolarizing material, which is usually enclosed by a porous envelope 10. A layer or blanket 11 of paste is interposed between the side surface of the cartridge and the side wall of the cup and serves as a carrier or vehicle for the electrolyte. The particular kind of material used for the de olarizing mix is not important so far as t e present invention is con cerned, but it may be assumed for purposes of description that the mix comprises say 36 units of owdered MnO and 12 units of finely divi ed graphite, these two ingredients being mixed together as intimately as (possible to form a homogeneous mixture, an being moistened with a suitable e1ectrolyte material as for example an ammonium chlorid solution of appropriate density. The mix is quite moist so that when tamped about the carbon pencil it forms a fairly compact but spongy bod that is practically integral with the penci adhering closely to the same.
In the particular form shown the car'- tridge is centered in the bottom of the cell container by means of a cupped centering washer 12 and at the top of the cell the cartridge. is centered by lower and upper paper washers 13 and 14 respectively, havin central openings through which the penci 8 passes,-there being a as space 15 between the two washers and t e pocket above the upper cupped washer 14 being substantially filled with a body 16 of pitch or the like that is poured in on top ofthe washer 14. On top of the pencil is the customar brass contact cap 17, which, in this embo iment, is embedded at its lowercdge portion in the pitch seal. It will be understood from the following description, however, that various changes may be made in the construction of the'cell without departing from the scope of the present invention, which is especially I concerned with the tamping of the de- Y polarizing material in place, and more particularly with the formation of the depolarizing material into a cartridge or body adhering to the carbon pencil.
In forming this body, I first take a carbon pencil 8, as shown in Fig. 2, and place about one end of the same a spacing member 18. This spacing member may be conveniently formed of wood or rubber or other material which will not be affected by the mix, and it is preferably in the form of a cylindrical block having a central opening adapted to surface of the die.
fit snugly over the pencil. The upper and lower surfaces of the block are fiat and the distance between them is equal to the distance which it is desired to maintain between the top surface of the mix and the top surface of the pencil, as hereinafter pointed out. The encil and block in the relation shown in ig. 2 are then placed in a suitable die generall indicated at 19 in Fig. 3. This die 19 as acylindrical opening 20 extending therethrou h from top to bottom, the diameter of the ie being equal to the diameter of the cartridge to be formed. In this instance the distance from the to surface of the die to the bottom is approximately-equal to the length of the carbon pencil. The spacing block 18 is located in the bottom part of the openin 20 so as to center the pencil therein, and after the pencil and block have been placed in the position shown in Fig. 3, a support 21 is positioned immediately beneath the opening 20 so as to have its upper surface abut the bottom surface of the block and thereby support the block with its lower surface substantially flush with the lower The lower end of the pencil is also supported on the member 21 with the block 18 surrounding the lower end portion of the pencil and centering the penoil with approximate accuracy in the die.
A quantity of the powdered depolarizing mix is next dumped on to the table or bed of which the die 19 is a part, so as to fill the remaining space within the die opening 20, as shown in Fig. 3. A suitable plunger 22 is then brought down within the opening 20 from above so as to tamp the material. The member 22 is of cylindrical shape, having a bore 23 therein, the bore being of such size that its cylindrical surface conforms closely to the carbon pencil and the outer surface of the plunger 22 being smooth and adapted to conform closely to the inner surface of the die opening. Suitable provision is also madefor permitting the escape from the plunger of material located between it and the upper end of the carbon pencil. For thispurpose the plunger 22 may be of the shape shown in Fig. 7. Here the bore 23 is in communication with a window 24 in the side of the plunger, through which the material may be ejected in a lateral direction as the plunger 22 is forced downwardly. In practice the plunger 22, which will form the movable element of a suitable press, may be brought down into the die openlng 20 say three or four times until the material has been packed in said opening sufficiently to have the required density. After the first descent of the plunger the same is raised again and then additional material is piled over the die opening and heaped up substantially as shown in Fig. 3. After three or four operations of the press, as indicated,
the plunger on the last operation havin been brought down substantially flushwitfi the upper surface of the .die, as indicated in Fig. 4, the pencil with its adhering body of depolarizing mix and \viththe spacin block 18 still surrounding the lower end 0 said pencil is removedfrom the die through the bottom thereof, the supporting member 21 being shifted out .of the way. The material is at this time densely packed in place about the pencil, as shown in Figs. 5 and 6. The spacing block 18 is then removed from thelower end of the pencil (which becomes the upper end in the battery) and the cartridge is then ready to be covered with. the fabric envelope 10 in case such an envelope is to be used.
It will be seen that by my new method, as herein described, a certain definite distance is preserved in all cases between the top surface of the pencil, or that surface which eventually becomes the to surface, and the top surface of the depo arizing material. This is due to the employment of the spacing block 18, or its equivalent, in tamping all of the cartridges. In this manner the shape, size and construction of the upper end portion of the cell may be more readily standardized, aswill be manifest, regardless of the tamping ressure and regardless also of the length 0 the carbon pencil. In my method, as distinguished from prior methods, the cartridge is tamped while in an inverted position, that portion which is to subsequently form the to being tamped in place first. In other Wor s, the operation is begun at the top of the cartridge and is finished at what becomes the bottom of the cartridge. This procedure, with the employment of the spacing block associated with the outwardly projecting part of the carbon, reduces to a minimum the breakage of the projecting carbon ends, which has been a matter of serious disadvantage in prior manufacture. Again, as the spacing block is placed on the end of the pencil before the latter is positioned in the die, such end of the pencil is enclosed and protected from the depolarizing material. Thus the material in question does not adhere to the projecting end of the pencil whenthe cartridge is finished and as a result the operation of assembling the brass contact cap 17 is facilitated and the liabilit of corrosion in the locality of the cap is re uoed considerabl arious changes maybemade in the details of the procedure, as herein described, without departing from the scope of my invention as defined in the claims.
