Abstract: A method for producing a battery includes providing a cup-shaped first housing part having a bottom and a side wall, the bottom and the side wall each having an inside and an outside. The method further includes covering the inside of the bottom of the first housing part with an electrically conductive covering, electrically connecting the electrically conductive covering to the bottom of the first housing part by welding, electrically connecting an electric conductor to the electrically conductive covering by welding, and assembling the first housing part and a second housing part to form a housing of the battery, the housing enclosing an interior space that includes a composite body therein. The composite body includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a separator, and the electric conductor. The inside of the bottom and the inside of the side wall of the first housing part face the interior space.

Abstract: A method for producing a battery includes depositing, via sputter deposition, a coating on at least a portion of a cup shaped first housing part of the battery. The coating includes aluminium, chromium, tin, and/or an alloy having two or more of the group consisting of aluminium, chromium, and tin. The method also includes establishing an electrical connection between a current conductor of the battery and the cup-shaped first housing part of the battery and assembling the cup-shaped first housing part of the battery and a second housing part of the battery to form a housing of the battery. The housing has an interior space that includes a composite body including a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a separator, and the current conductor. The cup-shaped first housing part has a circular or oval bottom and a ring-shaped side wall.

Abstract: A button cell on a lithium-ion basis includes a housing sealed in a fluid-tight fashion and composed of a positively-poled metallic housing half and a negatively-poled metallic housing half, which halves are separated from one another by an electrically-insulating seal. A positive electrode and a negative electrode are arranged inside the housing. The positive electrode is in electrical contact with the positively-poled housing half, and the negative electrode is in electrical contact with the negatively-poled housing half. An ion-conductive separator is arranged between the electrodes. The positive electrode includes a metallic current collector. A porous three-dimensional structure whose pores are filled with a suitable electrochemically-active material serves as such a current collector. During the manufacturing of the button cell, the structure is connected to the positively-poled housing half by welding.
