  • Patent number: 8828600
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a battery, which includes a case having through holes, electric terminals projecting outward from the case and fixed to the holes, and insulating members interposed between the case and the terminals. A flanged portion standing out from the case, located around the hole is formed, a reinforcing member is fitted to the outer periphery of the flanged portion that reinforces against the outward force applied to the flanged portion, and the terminal and the insulating member are inserted into the flanged portion, and then the flanged portion is press-fitted from the outside of the case for fixing the terminal to the hole. The battery may have a high sealing property at the fitted portion among the case and the terminal.
