Abstract
An improved metal oxide hydrogen battery including an outer pressure vessel and a plurality of cell modules are stacked in side-by-side relation in the vessel. Each cell module is generally rectangular in configuration and includes positive and negative terminals which are located centrally of the cell module. Each cell module is sealed within a rigid plastic casing and the casing is provided with a vent which permits the flow of gas but is impermeable to the flow of the liquid electrolyte contained within the cell module. A heat transfer member is disposed between adjacent cell modules and includes an outer cylindrical flange which is disposed in heat transfer relation with the inner wall of the pressure vessel. The peripheral edge of each casing is engaged with the inner surface of the respective flange to position the cell module within the vessel. Electrical conductors extend in sealed relation through the wall of the casing and connect the terminals of the cell modules in an electrical circuit.
