  • Patent number: 11791494
    Abstract: A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a separator which contains a first region located in a flat part of an electrode body and second regions located in a pair of curved parts, the ratio (B/A) of the air permeability (B) in each of the second regions to the air permeability (A) in the first region being 0.5 or more and 0.9 or less. Further, in a section passing through the center in the axial direction of the electrode body and being perpendicular to the axial direction, the ratio (SB/SA) of the sectional area (SB) of the pair of curved parts to the sectional area (SA) of the flat part is 0.28 or more and 0.32 or less.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 25, 2019
    Date of Patent: October 17, 2023
    Assignee: SANYO Electric Co., Ltd.
    Inventors: Junichi Yogo, Masashi Muraoka, Keisuke Minami
  • Patent number: 11374263
    Abstract: A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a negative electrode mixture layer which contains a first region located in a flat part of an electrode body and second regions located in a pair of curved parts of the electrode body, the ratio (B/A) of the packing density (B) in each of the second regions to the packing density (A) in the first region being 0.75 or more and 0.95 or less. Further, in a section passing through the center in the axial direction of the electrode body and being perpendicular to the axial direction, the ratio (SB/SA) of the sectional area (SB) of the pair of curved parts to the sectional area (SA) of the flat part is 0.28 or more and 0.32 or less.
