(EP1058950-A1)   NOVELTY - The container integral molding (14) has a base, side walls (26), cell partitions (22) and end walls (30) having a base portion (32) and diagonal ribs (34) in a honeycomb grid with diamond shaped flat sections (38) along the base portion. The ribs are parallel, spaced about 1 inch apart, angled approximately +/- 45 degrees to the horizontal, and shaped with a rounded upper crest. The rib sides form rounded diamond corners and rounded edges where they meet the base portion.    USE - Provides a container for recombinant sealed lead acid batteries used in starting, lighting and ignition of automobiles, trucks and other vehicles, i.e. SLI batteries, and in stationary and motive power source applications, i.e. industrial batteries.    ADVANTAGE - Provides a container design with enhanced resistance to end wall deformation due to internal pressure and internal and external temperatures developed during use, i.e. up to 3-6 psi and 200 degrees F. The rib structure increases end wall effective thickness and strength without uniformly increasing end wall thickness, thereby allowing container injection molding whilst minimizing difficulties related to differences in shrinkage rates. Rounded edges at locations where the ribs meet the base portion and rounded diamond corners provide good material flow characteristics, an easily removed molded part and minimal water retention during processing.
