Abstract of the Disclosure, Method and apparatus for joining lead battery parts (e.g. plate lugs, intercell connectors terminals, etc.) together via a low resistance electrical coupling wherein substantially oxide-free arc-melted, superheated molten lead is cast into a cavity between the parts. The parts are shielded from the arc while being bathed in a non-oxidizing atmosphere which is preferably formed from an ionizable, non-oxidizing gas heated by the lead-melting arc and spewed onto the parts along with the molten lead to provide additional heat thereto.

Why it's free to use
- Filed March 2, 1993. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended March 2, 2013.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by March 2, 2015.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
