摘要:A wick system for an electrochemical cell is provided to assure the connectionbetween the electrodes of the cell. The wick system of the invention absorbs electrolyteand by capillary action provides a continuous electrolyte path between the electrodes.The wick may be in the form of a substantially flat piece extending in one plane for thosecells having all electrodes positioned at one end thereof. Alternatively, the wick may besubstantially tubular to extend from one end of a cylindrical electrolyte containingchamber to another, for a cell having electrodes positioned at each end thereof.Additionally, the wick may extend from one end of the cell to the other in a foldedbellows-like form. In any of the forms, the wick system allows for a continuous operationof the cell, even with reduced electrolyte content, and regardless of the three-dimensional orientation of the cell, by absorbing electrolyte and maintaining electrolyticcontact.
