Electrochemical Cell, and Battery Assembly - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240039057 titled 'Electrochemical Cell, and Battery Assembly
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an electrochemical cell comprising an anode compartment and a cathode compartment, each defined in part by a respective metal plate. The anode compartment contains an alkali metal when charged, and it also includes a perforated planar sheet of an inert metal immediately adjacent to a sheet of ceramic to provide support. The cell can be a sodium/metal halide cell, and multiple cells with edge flanges can be stacked in an insulating frame to allow for the passage of a heat transfer fluid between the cells.
- The electrochemical cell consists of an anode compartment and a cathode compartment.

Original Abstract Submitted
an electrochemical cell () comprising an anode compartment () and a cathode compartment () each defined in part by a respective metal plate (), the anode compartment () of the cell when charged containing an alkali metal, and the of the alkali metal, and the anode compartment () also comprises a perforated planar sheet () of an inert metal immediately adjacent to the sheet () of ceramic, to provide support to the sheet of ceramic. the perforated metal sheet and the planar sheet of ceramic are formed separately. the cell () may be a sodium/metal halide cell; and multiple cells () which define edge flanges () may be stacked in an insulating frame (), so a heat transfer fluid may be passed between the edge flanges () of the cells ().
