ABSTRACT:
A leak resistant automotive battery comprising a housing containing cells having filling plugs; a battery cover sealed to an opened top end of the housing and having filling holes overlying the respective cells; at least one partition wall provided in the battery cover to divide the battery cover into at least two vent chambers, each vent chamber overlying a set of the cells, to prevent flow of electrolyte from one set of cells to an adjacent set of cells when the battery is tilted; a common vent line in the battery cover connecting the spaces above the cells in each set of cells, each of the common vent line being sealed at one end and connected at its other end through a vent chamber to one end of each of parallel vent lines having at its other end a vent cap assembly which permits escape of vented gases from the cells in each set.
