Abstract
The invention is a bipolar-electrode electrolytic cell (1) which includes a chassis (2), an electrode plate (3) and a plate-shape spacer (4) having a concavity (25) disposing the electrode plate (3), wherein an unit cell (C), which is formed by connecting a plurality of spacers (4) in which the electrode plate (3) is disposed on the concavity (25) so that one plate surface of the electrode plate (3) is directed to one direction, is disposed inside the chassis (2). The bipolar-electrode electrolytic cell (1) includes engaged portions (35, 50 and 51) which are provided on any one of the concavity (25) of the spacer (4) or the electrode plate (3) and engaging portions (10A and 10B) which are formed the other portion with respect to the one portion.
Claims15
A bipolar-electrode electrolytic cell which includes a chassis, an electrode plate formed in a square shape and performing electrolysis in electrolyte solution and generating electrolyzed products, and a plate-shaped spacer having a concavity on which the electrode plate is disposed, and in which an unit cell, which is formed by connecting a plurality of spacers in which the electrode plate is disposed on the concavity so that one plate surface of the electrode plate is directed to one direction, is disposed inside the chassis, the cell comprising:
- an engaged portion which is provided on the concavity of the spacer;
- and
- an engaging portion which is formed on the electrode plate,
- wherein the engaging portion which is formed on the electrode plate is formed on a position deviated from a line bisecting an outer periphery of the concavity so as to be a line symmetry,
- the engaged portion and the engaging portion are positioned so as to correspond to each other, and are formed to dispose the electrode plate inside the concavity, when the one plate surface of the electrode plate is disposed on the concavity toward the one direction,
- the engaged portion and the engaging portion are positioned so as not to correspond to each other, and are prevented from disposing the electrode plate inside the concavity, when the other plate surface of the electrode plate is disposed on the concavity toward the one direction,
- the engaged portion is a projecting part formed on the concavity,
- the engaging portion is a cut-out portion or a hole formed on the electrode plate, and
- the concavity is provided in the periphery of the projecting part by rounding the circumference thereof so as to bypass the projecting part.
