Abstract
A spacer for keeping cell casings spaced from one another when supported side-by-side in a rack is provided by an elongated member having a bottom adapted to rest on the rack supporting the cells and sidewalls spaced apart from one another the distance of the desired spacing between adjacent cell casing. The sidewalls terminate in a top edge space from the bottom a greater distance than the designated spacing of the sidewalls in less than a quarter of the casing height. Preferably ventilating holes are provided through the spacer to allow circulation of air between the adjacent cells spaced apart by the spacer.
