roll is pressed down so that the paper II makes contact with the top surface of the cathode I6.
yA zinc disc I8 having a thick central portion and anarrower rim I9 is placed on top of the zinc end of the roll and a ring or band 20 of synthetic rubber or other plastic insulating sealing material is placed over the rim I9. The free edge 2l of cup l1 -is then spun over the ring 20 toseal the cell and t0 apply pressure between top disc I8 and zinc anode foil I0. It is found that this pressure contact remains perfect for the life of the cell.
As one example of a cell constructed according to the invention a zinc foil strip .002 inch thick, if inch wide and 13 inches long is corrugated with about 50 corrugations per inch. Two layers of porous paper. such as lter paper, are u'sed each .004 inch thick, 12/32 inch wide and 15 inches long. The cup I'l has an inside diameter of V2 inch and a depth of about 1/2 inch exclusive of the ange 2l. Two grams of the preferred depolarizer material consisting of 90% mercurio oxide and micronized graphite is pressed in the bottom of the cup resulting in a layer approximately .090 inch thick. The paper Il, being soft and porous, swells and expands to close the space between turns at the bottom end of the anode roll so that all electrolytic conduction in the cell is through electrolyte held absorbed in the paper.
By way of example, only, one electrolyte of the type described in the Samuel Ruben application which can be used is formed by dissolving '75 grams KOH in 100 ml. of water and boiling with an excess of zinc oxideuntll the electrolyte is saturated therewith, then cooling and vacuum ltering through a ne grain glass filter so that a clear solution is obtained.
Figure i illustrates a modified cell wherein the compact in the bottom of the container includes an inert microporous barrier disc 21 which is pressed on top of the depolarizer 26. Barrier 21 may be a porous ceramic material or other porous material which is inert to the electrolyte. This construction is desirable when the depolarizer consists of cupric oxide or other oxides which have a tendency to migrate to the anode at elevated temperatures. The paper il itself affords substantial protection against migration under normal conditions but the barrier disc improves the protection where extreme temperature conditions or long shelf life are encountered. A suillciently fine barrier may be used to retard migration. effects even where these eiects involve actual solution of a small amount of the depolarlzing oxide.
A modiiled cell top 28 is also illustrated in Figure 4 comprising -a zinc disc having a central depression drawn therein. External contact is made to the zinc terminal disc I8 or 28 by a pressure clip or by a soldered terminal wire as required.
