点を有していた。 Conventionally, this type of battery is constructed such that the metal container has negative polarity and the terminal cover has positive polarity. That is, of the battery elements housed in a metal container, the negative electrode plate is connected to the bottom of the container via the lead metal plate, and the positive electrode plate is connected to the opening of the metal container via the lead metal plate through a packing. It is connected to a terminal cover that is caulked to maintain airtightness. Further, in order to facilitate insertion into the metal container, the battery element has an outer diameter that is sufficiently smaller than the inner diameter of the metal container. Therefore, a considerable amount of space is created between the inner wall of the metal container and the battery element. Because of this structure, when the battery is used as a drive source for a motor, for example in a portable device such as a power tool, vibrations from the motor are transmitted to the battery, causing the battery element to be damaged inside the metal container. A phenomenon of resonance occurs between the gaps. that time,
Repeated stress is applied to the connection between the positive and negative electrode plates and the lead metal plate, or the connection between the lead metal plate and the metal container and terminal cover, which eventually causes the connection to peel due to fatigue fracture, and the battery no longer functions. It had drawbacks. This was particularly noticeable when the connection portion was formed by spot welding. In addition, if the metal plate for the lead of the positive electrode plate comes into contact with the terminal cover and comes into contact with the metal container, the battery will be short-circuited and a large current will flow momentarily, causing the battery to heat up abnormally. There was a risk of ignition or explosion due to a sudden rise in internal pressure. Further, the same drawback occurs when a shock is applied to the battery, such as by dropping it on the floor.

欠点を除去し、耐震性、耐衝撃性に優れた密閉形
アルカリ蓄電池を提供することにある。 Therefore, an object of the present invention is to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks and provide a sealed alkaline storage battery with excellent earthquake resistance and impact resistance.

よいし、両者を別個に成形し、それらを組合わせ
て用いてもよい。 The main point of the present invention is that the terminal cover and the battery element have a bent part on the lower surface part that covers the outer edge of the battery element, and is arranged so as to surround the lead metal plate of the positive electrode plate. The point is that an insulator having an annular convex portion pressed by the terminal cover on the upper surface is interposed. The bent portion of the insulator partially fills the gap between the battery element and the inner wall of the metal container, preventing movement of the battery element due to vibrations and shocks, and at the same time, crimping the terminal cover onto the metal container to maintain the airtightness of the battery. When the annular convex portion of the insulator is pressed, the battery element is also pressed and fixed, thereby preventing movement of the battery element due to vibration or impact. Also,
The annular convex part of the insulator is arranged so as to surround the lead metal plate of the positive electrode plate, so the connection between the terminal cover and the lead metal plate may be separated, and the lead metal plate may come into contact with the metal container, causing damage to the battery. This also eliminates the possibility of short circuits. Here, it is more desirable that the tip of the bent portion of the insulator be at an acute angle. This is because it is easy to introduce the insulator onto the battery element, and even if there is a slight change in the outer diameter of the battery element, the insulator can be applied at any part formed at an acute angle at the tip of the bent part. This is because it can fill the void. Further, the insulator may be one in which the bending part and the annular convex part are integrally molded, or they may be molded separately and used in combination.

なものでも良い。 The battery houses a battery element 2 inside a cylindrical metal container 1, and at the opening of the metal container 1, a metal lid 3 having an exhaust valve 3' is formed on the metal lid by injection molding made of polyamide or polypropylene. It is swaged through a rubber gasket 4 made of aluminum to maintain airtightness. The positive electrode plate of the battery element 2 is connected to the metal lid 3 through a lead metal plate 5 by spot welding, and the negative electrode plate is similarly connected to the metal container 1 through a lead metal plate 6. Therefore, the metal lid 3 has positive polarity and the metal container 1 has negative polarity. The insulator 7 in the present invention is interposed between the metal lid 3 and the battery element 2, covers the outer edge of the battery element 2, and fills a part of the gap 8 created between the metal container 1 and the battery element 2. It has a refractive portion 7' that fills the area. The insulator 7 also has an annular protrusion 7'' that is pressed by the metal lid 3 when the metal lid 3 is caulked to the metal container 1 via the packing 4. As shown in the figure, it is formed into a cylindrical shape so as to surround the lead metal plate 5. When the convex portion 7'' is pressed, the battery element 2 is also pressed, and the effect of the bent portion 7' is combined with the effect of the bent portion 7' to fix the battery element 2. 7'' has a through hole 7 inside. The lead metal plate 5 is introduced through the through hole 7, and also serves to guide gas generated in the battery element 2 to the exhaust valve. The insulator 7 is made of polypropylene, but any material having electrical insulation properties may be used.

It has great practical value.
