Abstract:
A separator for a lead acid battery is a porous membrane having a positive electrode face and a negative electrode face. A plurality of longitudinally extending ribs, a plurality of protrusions or a nonwoven material may be disposed upon the positive electrode face. A plurality of transversely extending ribs are disposed upon the negative electrode face. The transverse ribs disposed upon the negative electrode face are preferably juxtaposed to a negative electrode of the lead acid battery, when the separator is placed within that battery.

Claim (Index 28):
A lead acid battery comprising: a housing containing a positive electrode spaced apart from a negative electrode with a porous separator located between said positive electrode and said negative electrode and an electrolyte in ionic communication between said positive electrode and said negative electrode, said separator having a plurality of longitudinally extending ribs disposed on a first surface of said separator and a plurality of transversely extending ribs disposed upon a second surface of said separator, said plurality of longitudinally extending ribs being juxtaposed to said positive electrode and said transversely extending ribs being juxtaposed to said negative electrode, wherein the transversely extending ribs are discontinuous and include a plurality of longitudinally extending fissures, channels, recesses, or openings.
