PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in or connected with Electric Accumulators.
GUSTAVE LEVE, of Villa Louise, Lawn Road, Hampstead, N.W., in the
County of London, Engineer, and THE MONOBLOC ACCUMULATOR SYNDICATE,
LIMITED, of 66, Victoria Street, in the City of Westminster, do hereby declare
the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
Our invention relates to electric accumulators in which one of the electrodes
is in a block form, and consists of a method of constructing the said block from
lead tapes or strips. A number of tapes are laid horizontally at a convenient
distance apart, say one inch, so as to leave space for the other electrode, which
will be in the form of a pencil, and above these tapes and at right angles to
them are placed a second layer of tapes at such a distance apart as to leave the
required space in the other direction. The continuous ends of all the bottom
tapes are now bent back so as to lie above the second layer, thus leaving a
number of square or rectangular spaces. The continuous ends of the second
layer are now bent back over the third in similar fashion and so on alternately
until the required height is reached, thus forming a composite block of inter-
laced lead tapes or narrow strips, having square or rectangular holes from top
to bottom for the reception of the pencils or rods which form the other electrode.
Jay of December 1899.
Improvements in or connected with Electric Accumulators.
We, GUSTAVE LEVE, late of Villa Louise, Lawn Road, and now of 7, Rosslyn
Court, Ornan Road, Hampstead, N.W., in the County of London, Engineer,
and THE MONOBLOC ACCUMULATOR SYNDICATE LIMITED, of 66, Victoria Street,
in the City of Westminster, do hereby declare the nature of this invention and
in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and
ascertained in and by the following statement:-
invention relates to electric accumulators in which one of the electrodes

page_text: is in a block form similar to that described in Julien's Patent No. 21,956 of
1896, and consists of a method of constructing the said block from lead tapes
or strips. A number of tapes are laid horizontally at a convenient distance
apart, say one inch, so as to leave space for the other electrode, which will be in
the form of a pencil, and above these tapes and at right angles to them are
placed a second layer of tapes at such a distance apart as to leave the required
space in the other direction. The continuous ends of all the bottom tapes are
now bent back so as to lie above the second layer, thus leaving a number of
square or rectangular spaces. The continuous ends of the second layer are now
bent back over the third in similar fashion and so on alternately until the
required height is reached, thus forming a composite block of interlaced lead
tapes or narrow strips, having square or rectangular holes from top to bottom
for the reception of the pencils or rods.
In the accompanying drawing, Figs. 1 & 2, the tapes A, A, A, which are
arranged at right angles to B, B, B, are bent backwards alternately as shown,
leaving the spaces C, C, C, as receptacles for the negative rods.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed we declare that what
we claim is ; —
The construction of a block electrode similar to that described in Juliens
Patent No. 21,956 of 1896 but manufactured from lead tapes or strips bent over
each other until the required height is reached, substantially as described.
