Abstract
A molded saddle for an electrode plate of a battery having a horizontal base plate and a flexible raised support plate portion for supporting legs of positive plates. When the molded saddle is attached to the inner bottom surface of a battery container, a large vertical space between an upper end portion of the flexible raised support plate portion and the inner surface of the bottom of the container is provided so that when the positive plate of a plate assembly is extended, the flexible, raised support portion supporting the positive plate is pushed in order to be lowered by the extension of the positive plate so as to absorb the extension resulting in the prevention of the positive plate from being warped.
