Abstract

PURPOSE:To minimize a quantity of electrolytic solution leaking to a periphery of a solid polarizable electrode by filling impregnant into a recessed part having a enclosed periphery which is produced when solid polarizable electrodes are opposed. CONSTITUTION:Conductive rubber is used for current collectors 1, 2. Solid polarizable electrodes 3, 4 are polarizable electrodes which are formed by sintering and molding activated carbon particles to a solid matter; and shallow recessed parts 3-1, 4-1 are provided to central parts of opposite sides thereof across a separator. An impregnation material 5 is filled into the recessed parts. An activated carbon particle, activated carbon fiber, etc., are used for the impregnation material 5, and mixed with electrolytic solution to form paste to be filled. Furthermore, a gasket 7 is used to insulate the polarizable electrode from peripheral materials. Since the polarizable electrode is a solid matter, it does not drop as time passes. Therefore, electrical connection does not deteriorate without producing a clearance between current collectors.

(Problems) However, the conventional electric double layer capacitor described above has the following problems. The first problem is that the electrolytic solution impregnated with the impregnating material tends to leak into the surroundings through the opposing gap between the polarizable electrodes. The second problem is that the impregnating material and the separator are bent, resulting in poor electrical connection between the polarizable electrode and the current collector. (Description of Problem) First, the first problem will be explained. In conventional electric double layer capacitors, the impregnating material is disposed to the extent that it protrudes beyond the outer periphery of the polarizable electrode. Therefore, the electrolytic solution impregnated into the impregnating material was likely to leak out from the polarizable electrode. Next, the second problem will be explained. Even if the impregnating material and separator are initially stretched horizontally, because of the weight of the polarizable electrodes on top, over time they will inevitably become warped due to settling of the polarizable electrodes. A slight amount of deflection is absorbed by the elastic metal net, and the electrical connection between the current collector and the polarizable electrode is not deteriorated so much. However, as the deflection increases, it becomes impossible to absorb it, and the electrical connection deteriorates. Therefore, the contact resistance increases and the internal resistance of the electric double layer capacitor increases. An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems.

Since the polarizable electrode is solid, the polarizable electrode does not settle.
The electrical connection between the current collector and the polarizable electrode does not deteriorate over time. Furthermore, since a recess was provided in the center of the opposing surfaces of the solid polarizable electrodes and filled with the impregnating material, the surrounding closed space was filled with the impregnating material. Therefore, it becomes possible to extremely reduce the amount of electrolyte leaking around the polarizable electrode.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows an electric double layer capacitor according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 shows a solid polarizable electrode used therein. In these figures, 1.2 is the current collector, 3, 4
3-1.4-1 is a recessed portion, 5 is an impregnating material, 6 is a separator, and 7 is a gasket. As the current collector 1.2, conductive rubber or the like is used. The solid polarizable electrode 3.4 is a polarizable electrode made into a solid by sintering activated carbon particles, and a shallow recess 3-1. 4-
1 are provided respectively. These recesses are filled with impregnating material 5. As the impregnating material 5, activated carbon particles, activated carbon fibers, etc. are used,
A paste made by mixing these and electrolyte is filled. The gasket 7 is for insulating the polarizable electrode from surrounding things, and is made of, for example, insulating rubber. With the above configuration, since the polarizable electrode is solid, it will not settle over time. Therefore, no gap will be formed between the current collector and the electrical connection will not deteriorate. Accordingly, an elastic conductor such as a metal net that mediates electrical connection is also unnecessary. Further, since the impregnating material 5 is accommodated in a thin recess with a closed circumference formed by opposing the solid polarizable electrodes 3 and 4, the amount of electrolyte leaking out to the surroundings is significantly reduced. Ru. Therefore, good ion permeability is maintained over a long period of time, and internal resistance is kept low.
