Abstract: 1423385 Venting arrangement for multi-cell storage battery GLOBE-UNION Inc 20 March 1973 [20 March 1972] 13364/73 Heading H1B A venting arrangement for a multi-cell battery permitting the escape of gases through a diffuser element 20, e.g. of porous ceramic, whilst preventing escape of electrolyte, comprises an intermediate cover 11 and a top cover (2,) the intermediate cover 11 having grooves 14-16 therein which cooperate with the cover 12 to form channels for egress of gas via fitler 20 while substantially preventing spillage of electrolyte. As shown the cover 12 inverted and detached from the cover 11. The cover 11 has inclined interconnected channels 14, 15, 16 having baffles 32, 33 and a compartment 17 receiving the element 20, the inclinations being such that any electrolyte reaching the baffles 33 will run back along channel 16, divide into channels 15 and run down channels 14 to return to the cells through slots at positions 65. Evolved gases pass through the same path in the opposite direction, permeate the element 20, and leave the battery through a slot 30 in the cover 12. The cover 11 has a skirt for attachment to the battery casing, electrolyte filling openings 23 and handle slots 49. The cover 12 is attached to the covers 11 by interengaging flanges and projections 36, (37), (Fig. 2 not shown), and interengaging double-walled projections 26 and U-shaped grooves 24. After assembly, the cover 11, 12 and casing 46 are welded together. Portion 47 of cover 12 may be hinged at 35 to gain access to the openings 23.

In a digital computer including a source of signal voltages representing binary digits 1 and 0 and a comparator having at least one control terminal connected to one electrically responsive radiation emitter, and an operational terminal and an output terminal connected to a receiver of which an electrical characteristic varies when subjected to radiations from the emitter, the said signal voltages are supplied to the control terminal or terminals or to the operational terminals. The radiation may consist of visible or invisible light or radio waves and emitters such as laser diodes and non-polarized neon tubes are mentioned. The receiver may for example be a photo-diode, a photo-transistor, or a light-controlled solid thyratron. Radio transmission may be received by a transistor having its base connected to its emitter by a loop. In the arrangement Fig. 1, "1"s or "0"s may be applied to terminals 2 and 3 and the output at terminal 5 will depend on whether they are the same or different. A pair of devices Fig.2 (not shown) have their radiation emitters connected in series between a bias potential and earth, and have respective radiation sensitive transistors as receivers, the transistor collector electrodes being connected to two respective signal potentials and the emitter electrodes being commoned. An applied control potential at the junction of the radiation emitters blocks one or the other of the two transistors according to whether it is equal to the bias potential or earth.
