Abstract

Separators for use in accumulators are provided with integral longitudinal and transverse ribs. The separators have an increased transverse and longitudinal rigidity thus permitting a clear reduction in the sheet thickness. They are preferably provided in the form of rolls with the rib structure preventing a permanent distortion of the separators.
