Description
KONE-AID HAHN, OFWINKEL, NEAR GIFHORN, GERMANY, ASSGNGR TO CCI-ZE SCHOTT Sn GEN., 0F JENA, GERMANY.
ELECTROLYTICIA1 PARATUS XVICCH IQUID ANODE.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known thaty KONRAD HAHN, a citizen of the German Empire, and residing' at Winkel, near Gifhorn, Germany, have invented a. neu and useful Eieetrolytie Apparatus with Liquid Anode, of which the tol lowing-is a specification.
The invention consists in an iiupi.'o.'e.inent in such electrolytic apparatus having liquid anodes as are occasionally or epntinuously Subj ect to shocks. The latter often result. in portions of the anode becoming` detached and jerked out of the anode vessel into the cathode vessel. To prevent suchinechanical Waste of the anode, the anode vessel is according to the present. invention fitted with a solid body, the dimensions and forni of which are chosen, so that it'sutticiently restrains the agitation of 'the anode (caused by shocks to the amjiaratus) in its vessel. This solid body is lixed in the anode vessel so as to have its i'ilaee'either in the anode or above it in the electrolyte or between the two, or the body is ot such specific gravity, that, arranged loose in the anode vessel, it floats betweenthe anode and the electrolyte.
In the drawingn the principal part of an electrolytic electricity meter is represented as an example ot an electrolytic apparat-us according to the present invention.
In the annular anode vessel a there is an annular solid body Zz, the under partof which is subn'iero'ed in the anode c, While the electrolyte (Z surrounds the upper part. The body consists of glass or porcelain 'or of a precious or other suitable niet-al. lt floats by virtue of its speciiic gravity' between the two liquids. ln abseiice of the solid body o, parte of the upper layer of the anode could in ne ci shocks become detached. 'QQ out ot the. anode vessel a. into the tube e, which forms Specification of Letters Patent.

the cathode vessel and in which the cathode y is placed. Hence, contrary to the object of the apparatus, anode liquid other than that precipitated` ont-he cathode f roin the electrolyte d, `would find its 'way ,into the cathode vessel e. v
It is assumed, that the apparatus will be used in situations, where it subjected to a continuous succession ot' shocks, as, for instance, in vehicles. rl`he obstacle. which the inner wall ot' the anode wss-,el a, (the inouth ot' the cathode vessel c) ollers to the circulation ot' the electrolyte between the electrodes, on account of its projectingr beyond thel upper surface of the anode, is coinpensated by the increase which this eirculation undergoes in consequence -oli the shocks.
I claim:
l. In an electrolytic apparatus an inode v el, a cathode vessel arranged below the anode vessel and commuuicatine' with itV ata place superior to its bottom. a liquid anode covering this bottoni, a solid cathode. an electrolyte contained in both vessels and a solid body arranged in the vertical direction above the bottoni. of the anode vessel so to restrain the agitatioii of the anode.
2. ln an electrolyt-ic apparatus an anode vessel, a cathode vessel, a mouth projecting; upwardly from the cathode vessel into the central parli o'l' the anode vessel, a liquid anode encircling the mouth. a solid cathode. an electrolyte contained in both ls, and a solid annular body arranged in the anode vessel so to surround the mouth of the cathode vessel and restrain tt-ion of the anode.
