Abstract
An improved means for connecting anode posts to diaphragm cell bases is described which utilizes anode posts which are soldered at the lower end of each post in an opening in the cell base to provide a good electrical connection. A flange is positioned on the anode post above the soldered connection. The space between the bottom of the flange and the interior surface of the cell base is filled with a suitable washer to provide a liquid-tight seal.
Claims9
In an electrolytic cell including:
- a. a cell base having:
- i. an interior layer which provides an interior surface, having a plurality of separate first openings therethrough, and
- ii. a conducting layer secured to said interior layer which provides an exterior surface, having a plurality of separate second openings therein,
- iii. said first and second openings being aligned to provide a plurality of separate openings in said cell base for a plurality of anode posts,
- b. a cell body secured to said cell base,
- c. a plurality of diaphragm-coated cathodes secured to said cell body,
- d. a plurality of anodes, each anode having
- 1. an anode post secured to said cell base, and
- 2.
