Accumulator

摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The accumulator (1) has a housing (2) and a housing cover (3) for closing the housing. Positive electrodes (4), negative electrodes (5) and an electrolyte (10) surrounding the electrodes are alternatingly arranged within the housing. A supplementary container (15) serves as a compensating reservoir for the electrolyte. A volume area (16) of the supplementary container and a volume area (17) of the housing stay in fluidic connection with each other. The supplementary container is arranged at the housing cover. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Accumulator i.e. starting battery. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The supplementary container serves as the compensating reservoir for the electrolyte, where the volume area of the supplementary container and the volume area of the housing stay in fluidic connection with each other, thus reducing maintenance costs of the accumulator. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a schematic sectional view of a battery. 1 : Accumulator 2 : Housing 3 : Housing cover 4 : Positive electrodes 5 : Negative electrodes 10 : Electrolyte 15 : Supplementary container 16 : Volume area of container 17 : Volume area of housing.
