Apparatus and method of delivering depolarization mix into a dry cell can.

摘要

A battery assembly apparatus (10) comprises a device (12) for delivering depolarization mix into a dry cell can (11). Another device (40) inserts a carbon rod (42) into the depolarizing mix in the dry cell can (11). A mix washer insertion device (60) consolidates the depolarizing mix by pushing a mix washer (66) against the depolarizing mix. In an alternative embodiment, the invention entails the provision of a battery assembly apparatus and method comprising a device (12) for delivering depolarization mix into a dry cell can (11). A mix washer insertion device (60) inserts a mix washer (66) into said dry cell above the depolarizing mix. Next, a device (40) inserts a carbon rod (42) into the dry cell can (11) containing the depolarizing mix and the mix washer. Then another device (60) consolidates the depolarizing mix in the dry cell can (11) containing the carbon tod (42) and mix washer (66).
