ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for assembling a sheet of storage battery separator material about a lead battery plate is disclosed. A battery plate is fed against the center of a flat sheet of battery separator material. The sheet is retained by guides above and below the line against which the battery plate is fed, so that as the plate is fed past the guides, the sheet is folded and enveloped about the somewhat narrower battery plate. As the enveloped plate continues to advance forward, it is engaged between pairs of opposed belt conveyors which take the battery and separator through a heating station. The adjacent inner edge surfaces of the folded separator are heat-sensitive, so that when the hot air and combustion gases at the heating station strike the adjacent inner edge surfaces, they become tacky. The continuously advancing plate and separator is then moved by the belt conveyor through a pressing device wherein a pair of opposed pressing rollers at each lateral edge of the separator presses and seals together the adjacent tacky edge surfaces of the separator material, resulting in a three-sided separator envelope about the battery plate.
