Abstract

In a separator made of elastic synthetic material for starter batteries, which has a sheet thickness of approx. 0.15 to 0.35 mm and solid ribs formed integrally on both sides from the synthetic material, such that on the front side of the separator facing the positive electric plate a number of ribs is arranged, the height of which is greater than the thickness of the separator sheet, while the ribs on the rear side of the separator facing the negative electrode plate have a smaller height than the ribs on the front side, there are ribs on the rear side each arranged offset to the ribs on the front side, such that a front-side rib runs between two rear-side ribs arranged as a pair, or a rear-side rib runs between two front-side ribs arranged as a pair, such that the distance between the two ribs arranged in a pair is considerbly smaller than the distance between the adjacent groups each formed of three associated ribs.
