A multi-cell battery constructed of a plurality of frames of insulating material each frame having a number of active battery material areas arranged side by side with a division portion between each material area, the frames being arranged side by side in a direction normal to the plane of the frame with the division portions secured in sealed relation to form partitions between adjacent cells of the battery. The active battery material in respective areas being selected so that adjacent areas in each frame are of opposite polarity and adjacent areas in adjoining frames are of opposite polarity. A barrier frame interposed between and secured to two frames in the assembly forming a chemical and electrical barrier between the active battery material in frames on opposite sides of the barrier member so that the assembly of frames forms two batteries of equal nominal voltage. |
