A device for conducting the electric current from the cathode of a hooded, transverse electrolytic cell to the anode of a neighboring cell via cathodically polarized carbon blocks in the pot of a cell, cathode bars and individual conductor bars wherein the current from each cathode bar is passed under a cell to a compensating conductor bar which runs around the neighboring cell. This compensating conductor bar is connected to each anode of the cell it runs around via a flexible conductor strip. Each anode is provided on its uppermost side with a yoke which is inserted and firmly secured in place, together with the conductor strip, in a notch or recess provided in a device for holding the anode in place. The anode holding device remains in place during anode changes and can be adjusted vertically by means of a motor or the like as a function of the voltage or the desired interpolar distance between anode and cathode. |
