' A. 0. GARRA'TT.
PHYSIOLOGICAL BATTERY.
No. 92,301.f
Patented July 6, 1869.
waited States ALFRED CHARLES GARRATT, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
Letters Patent No. 92,301, dated July 6, 1869.
IMPROVEMENT Ihl' PHYSIOLOGICAL BATTERIES.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and maklng part of the same To whom it may concern.-
Be itiknown that I, ALFRED Gimmes GARRATT, of Boston, county of Suffolk, and State of Massachusetts, have invented an Improved Physiological or ButtoM-Battery; and do hereby declare the following to be a -fnll, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being bad to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure l is a front view of my improved battery.
Figure 2 is also a front view, in which is shown a different arrangement of the buttons or disks.
Figure 3 shows the back of my battery, exhibiting the mannerot' connecting the buttons or disks.
This invention is an improvement on a physiological battery, patented by myself, December 29, 1868,
aml has for its objects, the attainment of greater elasticity in application; the production oi'a simple oneelement battery as a whole; the result of this construction being, that I utilize the equivalent of a copper and zinc pair ot'.platcs.
The nature of my invention consists in adjusting buttons or disks of copper or silver, and of zinc or al loy, or their equivalents in dissimilar metals, upon flexible insulation as a baso, with sure metallic con-" nected, upon the-back oi the battery, by copper wires,
ll d, which connect in all dircetions---crosswise, diagonally, length wise, &o.-making themetallieconnections of the copper and zinc buttons perfectly sure.
' Between the flexible back 13 and the front, 1s rubber or other insulation. for protection against outside in- The arrangement shown in fig. 2 is'on the same principle, enera lly. The copper buttons are surrounded by the zinc orjalloy buttons, thus making the copper buttons the centres of circles.
' The superior flexibility of this improved battery buttons or disks upon a base, the whole being flex-- ible.
This improved battery is battery, as a whole; that is, the copperbuttons are as but one in action, and the zinc inalloy, though a dozen in number, are as but one, and all the insular tjon-spaces between all these bits of metal areas but onein action; and the result is, I utilize the equivalent of a zinc and copper pair, which, if one, would be unyielding, and-incapable of adjustment to uneven surfaces. V
The use of the single element of zinc and copper is valuable, and well known to the medical profession in the whole world, but has only been made of stiff and uncomfortable materials, and impracticable, because it'eould not-be adapted to the parts desired with a surihcc large enough to etfect'a cure; consequently,
. thi'sis a thing old and well known, but improved and utilized; and, by-iny invention, this single-element battery is made veryzvailable, for if thus manufactured, and kept for salc,;theprofessiou and the public at large would employ a' thousand where one battery of single element is now used. v What I claim, therefore,asiny invention, and an improvement onbattery patented December 29, 18%, and desire-to secure by Letters Patent, is- The arrangement ofbuttonsa a, e c,
metals, upon a flexibleuomconductlng base, A, insulated fronrthe back 13, the buttons connected by wires (1 (I, the whole forming a single-element physiclogical battery, substantially as herei rset forth.
Intestimony whereof,'I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
