  • Patent number: 9153835
    Abstract: A button cell includes a housing cup and a housing top separated from one another by an electrically insulating seal and which form a housing with a flat bottom area and a flat top area parallel to it and an electrode-separator assembly within the housing including at least one positive and at least one negative electrode in the form of flat layers and connected to one another by at least one flat separator, wherein the electrode layers are aligned essentially at right angles to the flat bottom and top areas and the button cell is closed without being beaded over.

  • Publication number: 20130196222
    Abstract: A button cell with a housing includes a cup part and a cover part, which each have a floor region and a lateral surface region adjacent thereto and extending up to a first cut edge. A positive and a negative electrode, separated by a separator, are arranged in the housing. The cup part and the cover part are physically separated and electrically isolated from one another by a film seal, wherein the film seal surrounds the outer side of the cover part in the lateral surface region like a collar and is turned over the cut edge of the cover part inwardly. The film seal in this case forms, together with the separator and the cover part, a closed cavity in which the negative electrode is arranged.
