An anode bar is disclosed particularly for utilization during the production of molten metal by the Hall-Héroult process in which an elongated copper rod is slit partially along its length and bent to define a generally inverted ? -shaped member defined by a base end portion, a bridging arm and a pair of generally parallel legs. Each leg is received in a sleeve and inserted into a ring with a polygonal opening in the ring matching a polygonal exterior surface of the associated leg. A weld intimately welds each metal ring to each leg end and covers the latter. By this construction there is an absence of current arcing, consumption of an associated carbon anode or anode block is reduced, as is the consumption of the ring, sleeve and legs, but upon partial consumption of any of the latter restoration is achieved in an efficient and low cost manner.

On divulgue une barre anodique destinée à être utilisée particulièrement durant la production de métal en fusion par le procédé de Hall-Héroult; il s'agit d'une tige de cuivre allongée partiellement fendue sur sa longueur et pliée de manière à définir un élément ayant la forme générale de ? inversé comportant une partie terminale, un bras de pontage et une paire de pattes généralement parallèles. Chaque patte est placée dans un manchon et insérée dans un anneau muni d'une ouverture polygonale correspondant à une surface extérieure polygonale de la patte en question. Une soudure assure une liaison intime entre chacun des anneaux métalliques et chacune des extrémités de patte et recouvre cette dernière. Cette construction permet d'éviter la formation d'arcs électriques, réduit la consommation de l'anode ou d'un bloc anodique au carbone tout comme celle de l'anneau, du manchon et des pattes, et, après consommation partielle de n'importe quelle de ces parties, il est possible de les remetttre en état de manière efficace et peu coûteuse.
