摘要： The invention concerns an electrolysis apparatus for producing halogen gases from an aqueous alkaline halide solution with a plurality of plate-like electrolysis cells which are disposed adjacent one another in a stack, are in electrical contact, and each comprise a housing consisting of two half-shells of electrically conductive material with outer contact strips on at least one housing rear wall. The anode and the cathode are separated from each other by a partition wall, are disposed parallel to one another and are connected in an electrically conductive manner to the respective associated rear wall of the housing by means of metal reinforcements. The object of the invention is for the surfaces through which current flows to be as large as possible so as to prevent non-uniform current distribution. To that end, the metal reinforcements take the form of webs (10) which are aligned with the contact strips (7) and whose side edges (10A, 10B) abut the rear wall (3A, 4A) and the anode (8) and cathode (9) over the height of the rear wall (3A, 4A) and the anode (8) and cathode (9).
