2. Description of the Related Art A method of manufacturing an electrode plate by filling an electrically conductive current collector with an electrode mixture and rolling it with a roll is important in order to increase the packing density and increase the thickness of the electrode plate. To be uniform. When the thickness of the electrode plate is not uniform, for example, when the electrode plate is thicker than a predetermined value, the dimension becomes larger than the predetermined value when the electrode group is configured, which causes a problem that it cannot be inserted into the battery can. On the other hand, if it is thin, the packing density becomes too high, so that the permeability of the electrolytic solution deteriorates, and as a result, the battery life varies due to the variation in the amount of the electrolytic solution.

A technique for rolling the electrode plate to a uniform thickness is described in, for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-21055. The method described in this publication is that a current collector is filled with an electrode mixture containing an active material and a binder to form a filled electrode plate, and the filled electrode plate is passed between rolling rolls to obtain a uniform thickness. Have been rolled into. In order to increase the packing density of the electrode plate and to make the thickness uniform, the manufacturing method described in this publication is not shown in FIG.
As shown in (1), the filled electrode plate 5 is first rolled by the large-diameter rolling roll 1 and finally rolled by the small-diameter rolling roll 2 to form the electrode plate 4.

The method described in the above publication is characterized in that the packing density can be increased by finally rolling with the rolling roll 2 having a small diameter. However, in this method, since the auxiliary roll 3 is disposed on the small-diameter rolling roll 2 and the auxiliary roll 3 presses the small-diameter rolling roll 2, the manufacturing apparatus becomes complicated. In addition, the gap between the small-diameter rolling rolls 2 is adjusted while the auxiliary roll 3 is in contact with the small-diameter rolling rolls 2.
There is a drawback that it becomes difficult to adjust the gap. In addition, if the auxiliary roll 3 cannot press the entire rolling roll 2 having a small diameter with a uniform pressure, the electrode plate 4 cannot be rolled to a uniform thickness.

Since the present inventors use an extremely thick metal rolling roll having a diameter of 450 mm for rolling the filled electrode plate, the gaps between the rolling rolls that pass through the filled electrode plate are uniformly maintained. I was convinced that the electrode plate that passed through was rolled to a uniform thickness. However, it was clarified that an error of several% in thickness occurs in the width direction when many electrode plates were actually manufactured and the thickness thereof was measured. Initially, the present inventors considered that the error in the thickness was due to the error in the thickness of the rolling roll, and accurately ground the surface of the rolling roll to make the outer diameter into a precise dimension with high accuracy. However, no matter how high the precision rolling roll is used to roll the filled electrode plate, it is not possible to reduce the variation in the thickness of the electrode plate to be manufactured in the width direction. The present inventors have been unable to determine the cause,
It was not possible to reduce the thickness error of the electrode plate in the width direction. However, for the rolling of the filled electrode plate, by using a rolling roll having a unique shape in which the thickness is partially different, instead of a rolling roll having the same thickness as a whole, the thickness of the electrode plate to be rolled is We succeeded in significantly reducing the error in the width direction.

For example, the electrode plate prototyped in the comparative example has a thickness of about 33 μm thinner on both sides as compared with the central portion.
In order to correct this thickness error, as shown in FIG. 8, the diameter of the rolling roll that presses both ends of the filled electrode plate is set to about 3 mm.
3 μm, that is, the radius is reduced by 33/2 μm. In other words, pressing the center of the electrode plate, which becomes thicker after rolling, narrows the gap between the central portions of the rolling rolls, and widens the gap at both ends of the rolling roll, where the electrode plate becomes thinner. The rolling roll 6 of FIG. 8 has a total length of 600 mm. With this rolling roll 6,
The filled electrode plate 5 having a width of 500 mm is rolled. Therefore, the rolling roll 6 rolls both end edges of the electrode plate at a position 250 mm from the center. The radius of this part is 33
Since the thickness is reduced to / 2 μm, it is necessary to reduce the thickness to about 20 μm at both ends of the rolling roll 6 which is 300 mm away from the center.

Therefore, the filled electrode plate is rolled with a rolling roll that makes the entire thickness the same to form an electrode plate, and the thickness of the center part and both end parts of this electrode plate is measured, and it can be rolled in an ideal state. The size of the roll can be easily estimated.

However, as shown in FIG. 9, the manufacturing method of the electrode plate used for the storage battery of the present invention is as follows.
One rolling roll 6 for rolling the filled electrode plate 5 may have the same thickness as a whole, and the other rolling roll 6 may be a taper roll having both ends thinner than the central portion. As shown in this figure, the method of rolling the filled electrode plate is such that the radius of the both ends of the taper roll is reduced as compared with the one using the rolls of the same shape as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. To double (40 μm).

The method for producing the electrode plate used in the storage battery of the present invention is a method of using a unique shape of the rolling roll, which also uses a rolling roll having a slightly thin end. With a simple method, it is possible to significantly reduce the variation in the thickness of the electrode plate that is manufactured. In this way, the manufacturing method of the present invention, which can make the thickness of the electrode plate uniform, changes the rolling roll into a unique shape with almost no change in the conventional manufacturing method and apparatus, and is extremely uniform. A thick plate can be manufactured. Therefore, it is possible to realize the feature that high-quality electrode plates can be mass-produced at low cost. Further, since the electrode plate manufacturing method of the present invention can make the thickness of the electrode plate in the width direction uniform, a wide electrode plate is continuously manufactured, and the electrode plate is cut and assembled into a storage battery, Achieve the features that enable efficient and high-quality production of electrode plates.
