Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve moisture permeability resistance of a sealing part by bending an outer peripheral part of one terminal plate having a larger size than the other terminal plate so as to surround the outer peripheral part of the small-sized terminal plate together with an insulating member. CONSTITUTION:An insulating member 6 is subjected to heat fusion to a peripheral part of a negative electrode terminal plate 5, and sealed by furthermore subjecting said member 6 and a positive electrode terminal plate 1 to heat fusion. In addition, the terminal plate 5 and the member 6 are adapted to have larger sizes thereof, and part of each of them is protruded externally as the excessive part. Hereupon, the terminal plate 5 is bent together with the member 6 so as to surround the outer peripheral part of the terminal plate 1, and thereafter the member 6 and the peripheral part of the outer surface of the terminal plate 1 are subjected to heat fusion. Hereby, a heat fusion area of the member 6 in relation to the terminal plates 1.5 can be increased for substantially increasing moisture penetration path since that is assured by bending the terminal plate 5 and the member 6.

There was a problem in that as storage time elapsed, moisture entered the battery and reacted with the lithium of the negative electrode active material to generate hydrogen gas, causing the battery to expand. As a countermeasure for this, there are two methods: reducing the thickness of the insulating material between the peripheral edges and increasing the heat welding area.However, if the thickness of the insulating material at the peripheral edges is made too small, the positive and negative terminal plates may come into contact with each other. short circuit easily.

Figure 6 shows the change in internal resistance over time when stored in an environment of 100%. As is clear from the figure, the internal resistance of conventional battery C begins to increase as it is stored, and after 30 days, the internal resistance increases significantly. On the other hand, the internal resistance of the battery hardly increases even after 30 days of storage, and the internal resistance gradually increases as 60 and 90 days pass, but even after 90 days of storage, the internal resistance is 4oΩ. Good storage performance was obtained due to the moisture permeability of the outer peripheral seal. Furthermore, battery B had even better storage performance than battery B due to the fact that the thickness of the insulating member b was thinner than that of batteries A and C.
