METAL-AIR BATTERY

摘要

A metal-air battery may include a housing, at least one cathode disposed in the housing between an air space and an electrolyte space, and at least one metal anode disposed in the electrolyte space. The battery may also include an air path leading through the housing from an air inlet to an air outlet of the housing, both of which may be fluidically connected to the air space, and an air supply device for generating an air flow which may follow the air path and act upon the cathode. The battery may further include an electrolyte path leading through the housing from an electrolyte inlet to an electrolyte outlet of the housing, both of which may be fluidically connected to the electrolyte space, and an electrolyte supply device for producing an electrolyte flow which may follow the electrolyte path and act upon the anode and the cathode.

1. A metal-air battery comprising:
a housing; at least one cathode disposed in the housing between an air space and an electrolyte space; at least one metal anode disposed in the electrolyte space; an air path leading through the housing from an air inlet of the housing, which is fluidically connected to the air space, to an air outlet of the housing, which is fluidically connected to the air space; an air supply device for generating an air flow which follows the air path and acts upon the at least one cathode; an electrolyte path leading through the housing from an electrolyte inlet of the housing, which is fluidically connected to the electrolyte space, to an electrolyte outlet of the housing, which is fluidically connected to the electrolyte space; and an electrolyte supply device for producing an electrolyte flow which follows the electrolyte path and acts upon the at least one metal anode and the at least one cathode.
