Chemical engineering . W. .-Vylsw orth. East Or-ange. N. J. Assignor to Kdison Storage Battery 78l,.867, Feb. 7. 1905. .\pplication tiled Sep. 15. I«)OJ. The apparatvis is primarily intended for carrying out theprocos described in Mr. patent of July 28. was ilescribcd in \l Industry Vol. I, relating to the welding of a nickel film deposited on aniron or steel surface to the latter by heating the plated ob-jects in a non-oxidizing atmosphere, for the purpose of mak-ing the articles thus treated practically homogeneous and re-lieving the tension existing in the plated deposit. Tension ismade in the apparatus to carry out the above process in acontinuous manner.

From there the strip travels through pipe 4into the plating tank 5. which is filled with a solution of nickelammonium sulphate. The nickel anodes, preferably in theform of rectangular bars 33, are suspended from condncturs32 along both sides of the tank, by means of hooks 34. Thestrip forms the cathode, the source of energy for electroplatingbeing shown at 30. The strip passes over conductingpulleys 6 at the lop. all connected to the dynamo 30 by con-ductor 7, and over insulating pulleys 8 at the bottom, all pulleysbeing supporte<l from beam 9.
