Most gaskets are flat, coin-shaped, and in this case, the gasket is pushed into the periphery of the bottom of the device's case, and the bottom of the case serves as a seat for the gasket. Therefore, since the positive electrode contacts only the bottom surface of the case, it is necessary to ensure sufficient electrical contact between the positive electrode and the case. In applications requiring heavy load discharge such as patent pulse discharge, it is necessary to reduce the internal resistance of the device as much as possible. Therefore, we created a structure in which a titanium or stainless steel flat plate or lath metal plate is electrically welded to the inner surface of the case as a current collector, and the positive electrode and current collector are brought into close contact by the pressure applied when sealing the case opening. I'm picking it up.
