Abstract:
1. Plant for electrochemical forming of lead-acid batteries, comprising a series of cells of lead-acid batteries, each cell having a plug comprising an inlet duct and an outlet duct, a supply tank for introducing electrolyte into the cells though the corresponding inlet duct, a suction header for drawing the electrolyte out from the cells through the outlet ducts thereof, an apparatus fitted between the tank and the header for circulating and cooling the electrolyte, a suction device configured to extract the electrolyte from the cells and a supply and balancing device for supplying and balancing of the air in the cells adapted to avoid a vacuum inside the cells themselves and to achieve a balancing of the pressure inside the cells with the outside atmospheric pressure, wherein an introduction of electrolyte into the cells though the inlet ducts and a discharge of electrolyte out of the cells through the outlet ducts occur simultaneously, thereby creating a continuous inflow of electrolyte among the series of cells.
