    摘要: A method and apparatus for maintaining electro-deposition of metal on a cathode in an electrolytic cell. The cell comprises a metal anode, a cathode, an electrolytic bath and a main power supply to apply an electric potential across the anode and cathode resulting in a forward current and depostion of metal from said anode to the cathode. An auxiliary power supply is also provided for connection to the cell. In cases where the mains power supply falls below a predetermined value, the auxiliary power supply maintains a predetermined direction and quantity of current flow in the cell. The auxiliary power supply may be continuous or activated only when the current flow and/or direction of current falls below said predetermined value.

    摘要: A method of electro-depositing an envelope of metal on a cathode. The metal envelope (120) comprises metal sheets (122, 124) on either side of the cathode plate (100). A groove (150) is provided along one edge of the cathode plate whereby metal deposited on and adjacent to said groove forms a frangible portion (140). The groove is shaped such that a line of weakness (A) is formed in the metal deposited within the groove such that separation of the two sheets of deposited metal is initiated along the line of weakness.
