NOVELTY - The improved component comprises a plate/grid peak to trough alignment during assembly of cell elements, and a pair of male and female matching dies having same geometric standard deviation. The matching dies: are made of carbon steel; have peaks and troughs of modest consistent radius; provide 100-110% of a surface area gain in the direction of a pleat axis; are sized to fully press/form a prepunched raw material battery plate/grid in a single press operation; and are flanged to permit a safe and reliable attachment to a hydromechanical brake or to a drop hammer.    USE - The improved component such as ultra pleat is useful for enthalpy expansion of secondary cells through the instrumentality of pleated battery plates/grids that are centerline compliant and have uniform standard pitch, where the secondary cells are useful in automotive vehicles.    ADVANTAGE - The improved component eliminates the apparent output of carbon monoxide from the automotive vehicle, reduces the risk of differential pressure shrapnel output in the event of an accident, and reduces the risk of a fireball in the event of an accident.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - The improved component comprises a plate/grid peak to trough alignment during assembly of cell elements, and a pair of male and female matching dies having same geometric standard deviation. The matching dies: are made of carbon steel; have peaks and troughs of modest consistent radius; provide 100-110% of a surface area gain in the direction of a pleat axis; are sized to fully press/form a prepunched raw material battery plate/grid in a single press operation; and are flanged to permit a safe and reliable attachment to a hydromechanical brake or to a drop hammer. The improved component is installed in an electric, interstate and alpha vehicle, which has a dual electric induction split phase motor, and a dual overrunning clutch propulsion system.
