Abstract
A battery with side flanking terminals wherein the positive and negative terminals are fixed onto the opposite side walls of a casing and connect respectively to a positive and negative post. The battery may be sealed by main cover seal with an adhesive to the casing. The positive and negative terminals are connected respectively to the positive and negative posts through first and second slots located in main cover. The advantages provided by this invention is to prevent the possibility of short circuiting the battery caused by a fallen metal object on top of the battery to increase safety of operation. Further, the connection, space for storage and operation is reduced. Further, the battery may be sealed in a one step process.
Claims13
A method of producing a battery with a side flanking terminals, said battery having a main cover and a casing wherein all the positive plates are connected in parallel to a corresponding positive post and all the negative plates are connected in parallel to a corresponding negative post, the method being characterized by:
- (1) fixing a positive terminal on one side wall of the casing and a negative terminal on the opposite wall of the casing, said positive terminal being connected to the positive post through a slot set into a recess provided on the main cover in a position corresponding to the positive terminal fixed on the side wall of the casing and said negative terminal being connected to the negative post through a slot set into a recess provided on the main cover in a position corresponding to the negative terminal fixed on the opposite side wall of the casing;
- (2) fixing the main cover onto the casing and sealing it therewith using an adhesive;
- and
- (3) filling the battery with an electrolyte.
A battery with side flanking terminals comprising a casing wherein a set of positive plates and a set of negative plates, with each positive plate and each negative plate alternatingly arranged and separated with a separator therebetween;
- and wherein the set of the positive plates are connected in parallel to a positive post and wherein the set of negative plates are connected in parallel to a negative post characterized by:
- a main cover with a first and second slot for sealing attachment to the casing with an adhesive;
- a positive terminal placed on the side wall of the casing and connected to the positive post through the first slot on the main cover, said first slot being in a position corresponding to the positive terminal and connected to the positive post.
- a negative terminal placed on the opposite side wall of the casing and connected to the negative post through the second slot on the main cover in a position corresponding to the negative terminal;
- and
- wherein the main cover is fixed onto the casing and sealed thereto with an adhesive.
