Description

s; H. BARTLETT Portable Ga lvanio Battery.
, No. 228,972. Patented Jun.e.22, 18810.
WHHEEEEE; E a
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFHCEQ SAMUEL H. BARTLETT, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
PORTABLE GALVANIC BATTERY.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 228,972, dated June 22, 1880.
Application filed J anua'ry 23, 1880.
bination with a closed reservoir attached to one end of the aforesaid cell, and communicating therewith by an opening midway, or thereabout, of the depth of the cell, said opening being provided with a suitable plug or valve for the closing of the opening when occasion requires.
In order to use the apparatus as thus constructed the reservoir is tilled with any of the usual exciting-liquids, and the opening is closed, as hereinbefore explained, whereupon the apparatus may be carried either upon the v person or in a valise, trunk, or the like without danger of spilling the liquid.
When the battery is to be applied for actual battery purposes the plug is removed, the apparatus is turned into a horizontal position, and one-half, or thereabout, of the excitingliquid passes into the cell, and by submergin g the zincand carbons to the requisite degree puts the battery in operation.
' Figure 1 is a plan View, and Fig. 2 a vertical central longitudinal sectional view, of an apparatus embracing my said invention.
A is the cell, fitted in the usual or any suitawhich is entirely closed except for the opening a, which is situated midway, or thereabout, of the depth of the cell, and, of course, of the reservoir. A suitable plug, 1), or in lieu thereof a valve of any appropriate construction, is
provided for this opening.
When the exciting-liquid is placed in the reservoir, and the opening is closed with the plug or its equivalent, it is manifest that the exciting-liquid will, so to speak, be bottled up, and cannot be spilled during any ordinary movement or transportation of the apparatus. 011 the other hand, when the plug is removed and the apparatus placed in a horizontal po; sition the liquid will flow out into the cell; and by filling the lower part thereof, and to a corresponding extent submerging the zinc and the carbons, will put the battery in operation.
It is, of course, to be understood that the cell, together with the reservoir and the plug, is to be made of vulcanized india-rubber or "other material practically incorrosive from contact with the exciting-liquid.
What I claim as my invention is A galvanic-battery cell having attached thereto a reservoir, D,- communicating with said cell by an opening midway, or thereabout, of the depth of the cell, and. provided with a suitable plug or valve for closing the reser* voir when required, all substantially as and for the purpose herein set forth.
