Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Apparatus for air mixing to prevent acid stratification in a battery having a liquid electrolyte is disclosed. A source of pressurized gas is connected to a gas conduit mounted on the battery. Downtubes within each cell of the battery are in fluid communication with the gas conduit. The tubes have outlets positioned near the bottom of each cell and one-way valves which allow gas to flow into the cells but prevent liquid electrolyte from flowing out of the cell through the downtube. The invention also includes a method of mixing a liquid electrolyte including using a one-way valve to allow a mixing gas to flow into a cell but prevent liquid electrolyte from escaping from the cell.
