摘要： A battery includes a casing that has an inner surface defining a chamber for an electrolyte, and a conductive lining being configured for electrical communication with a first battery terminal. There is also a permeable separator sheet disposed between the electrolyte and the conductive surface; a conductive rod having a first end configured for electrical communication with a second battery terminal, and, a second end configured for contacting the electrolyte. There is also an opening disposed in the casing; a sealing member configured for arrangement between at least a sealed position and an unsealed position to allow a potential difference to be produced between the first and second battery terminals. There is also at least one spacing element configured for spacing the electrolyte apart from the conductive lining within the chamber.

摘要： A battery includes a battery casing defining a chamber therein, and an electrolyte powder disposed in the chamber. The electrolyte powder is configured to surround a zinc material that is separated from the electrolyte powder by a permeable separator sheet. The battery also includes a conductive member having a first end configured for electrical communication with an anode terminal of the battery, and, a second end configured for electrical communication with the zinc material. A conductive layer is also disposed between an inner surface of the casing and the electrolyte powder, the conductive layer being configured for electrical communication with a cathode terminal of the battery. There is also a liquid release mechanism configured for allowing release of a liquid in the chamber to activate an ion flow between the electrolyte powder and the zinc material via the permeable separator sheet.

摘要： A battery including: a casing having a cylindrical portion, an end portion configured for covering an opening disposed in an end of the cylindrical portion, and an inner surface defining a chamber in which an electrolyte is disposed therein; a conductive surface located within the chamber adjacent the inner surface of the casing, the conductive surface being configured for electrical communication with an anode terminal of the battery; a permeable separator sheet located within the casing configured for electrically isolating the electrolyte from the conductive surface; a conductive rod having a first end configured for electrical communication with a cathode terminal of the battery, and, a second end of the conductive rod configured for electrical communication with the electrolyte; wherein the end portion and the cylindrical portion are movably attached to each other, the end portion and cylindrical portion being movable relative to each other between at least a first attached position whereby the end portion covers the opening disposed at the end of the cylindrical portion so as to substantially block ingress of a liquid into the casing via the opening, and, a second attached position whereby the end portion is displaced from the end of the cylindrical portion so as to allow ingress of a liquid into contact with the electrolyte in the chamber via the opening so that the electrolyte is suitable for allowing a potential difference to be generated between the conductive surface and the conductive rod of the battery.
