Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a manufacturing method of a flat wound group excellent in volumetric efficiency and having vibration resistance. SOLUTION: A hexagonal core material 2 is made by deforming a seamless cylinder in a shape to make contact with an outer periphery of a winding shaft by slipping it left and right by covering the winding shaft of a winding device with the stainless steel SUS 304 made seamless cylinder. A pole plate and a separator are wound so that a flat winding group 7A of a hexagonal flat shape is formed around the hexagonal core material 2. The flat wound group 10 is manufactured by crushing the flat winding group 7A with the hexagonal core material 2 from the upper side direction. The hexagonal core material 2 is crushed and becomes a plate type core material 2A making contact with no clearance, and an overall periphery of the plate type core material 2A is structured to adhere to the extreme inner periphery of the separator 4a. The plate type core material 2A is fixed inside of a battery.

However, in the case of a small battery used as a power source of a mobile phone, the mass of the wound group is small, so that even if the flat wound group 7D having no core material is used, the vibration resistance of the battery is not improved. Although there is no hindrance, for example, in the case of a large battery for an electric vehicle (EV) and the like, which has been urgently put into practical use in recent years, the mass of the flat wound group 7D becomes large. There is a problem that can not be obtained. Even with the conventional flat wound group manufacturing method, the core material cannot be inserted after the flat wound group is removed from the winding device, but the core material and the innermost separator of the flat wound group are not removed. It was difficult to align the substrates during bonding, and mass production was difficult.

Further, in the structure in which the PP resin core material 31 is used as the shaft core of the flat wound group, the PP resin core material 31 and the flat wound group 7G are in close contact with each other over the entire circumference. However, since the PP resin core material 31 needs to be strong enough to withstand the strong tension of the electrode plate and the separator at the time of winding, it cannot be formed into a thin shaft core, and the flat wound group There is a problem that a large dead space is generated in the center, and the volume efficiency (Ah / l) of the flat battery is significantly impaired.
