Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cylindrical alkali battery suitable for a use requiring a big current and having high stability. SOLUTION: This cylindrical alkali battery has a sealing structure equipped with a resin packing 3 having a thin film part 3a as a burst preventive function and a metal plate 4 having a degassing hole 4a, and a battery can be prevented from being burst by its wrong use by providing a projecting and recessed surface 3b on the side facing the metal plate 4 of the resin packing 3. That is, in the past, gas was produced and a temperature rise occurred by charging with a big current caused by a wrong use, the degassing hole was blocked by deformation of the resin packing, and there was a fear of burst. However, by forming the above mentioned projecting, and recessed surface, a degassing passage is secured and potential burst can be prevented even under such condition.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, cylindrical alkaline batteries have been mainly used for headphone stereos and boomboxes, but due to the recent increase in portable devices, more and more portable MD players, mobile phones, notebook computers and the like have been used. Opportunities for use in load applications have increased. From such a background, a battery having a high capacity and an excellent heavy load characteristic corresponding to a large current application by suppressing the internal resistance to be low has been developed. Such a battery generates gas when charged due to misuse. However, since the battery is provided with a rupture prevention function, the safety valve operates to prevent rupture.

However, a battery excellent in heavy load characteristics has a low internal resistance and a large current flows, so that a short circuit may generate heat up to about 100 ° C. In addition, even when charging due to misuse, in the case of high-current charging, heat is generated as in the case of a short circuit. For this reason, the resin packing softened by the heat is deformed with an increase in internal pressure due to gas generation, and is pressed against a metal plate when the safety valve is activated, blocking the path of the gas vent hole, and as a result, the internal pressure continues to increase, It turned out that it could eventually burst. The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a highly safe cylindrical alkaline battery suitable for a large current application.

When a large current is charged due to misuse, the resin packing 3 is deformed as shown in FIG. 2 due to softening of the packing resin due to heat generation and an increase in internal pressure due to gas generation. When charging is further continued, the safety valve operates, and the uneven surface 3b is pressed against the metal plate as shown in FIG. Normally, when this state is reached, the gas vent hole 4a of the metal plate 4 is closed and the above-mentioned dangerous state occurs,
In the present invention, even in such a state, since the surface of the resin packing on the metal plate side is not smooth, a gas vent path is secured, and no rupture occurs. Note that the structure shown in FIG. 1 is an example and does not limit the present invention.
