HEATING APPARATUS FOR PLATE LUGS

摘要

This invention relates to apparatus for heating the lugs of battery plates. The apparatus (10) includes a hot air duct (11) which communicates with a nozzle (12) having a head (13) that defines a pair of opposite facing nozzles (14). Each nozzle (14) has an outlet (15) from which extends a generally flat and divergent plate (16). The plate (16) entrains hot air passing through the outlet (15) into a generally flat stream so that the hot air impinges on lugs (19), but not of the rest of the group (18) of plates and separators.
