  • Patent number: 8043738
    Abstract: A liquid action substance battery having its external terminal welded after assembling the battery in which safety of the battery is enhanced by protecting an explosion-proof valve against being torn apart in the subsequent welding work of the external terminal even if the position of a negative pole action substance being press-bonded to the inner surface of the battery can is shifted and that substance is extruded to the bottom face of the battery can.

  • Patent number: 7566515
    Abstract: A non-aqueous electrolyte secondary cell containing an electricity-generating element with at least a cathode, a separator and an anode and a non-aqueous electrolyte inside a cathode case, electrode units each consisting of the cathode and the anode opposite to each another via the separator laminated to form an electrode group, or an electrode unit in a sheet form consisting of the cathode and the anode opposite to each another via the separator wound to form an electrode group, or a sheet-shape cathode wrapped with the separator except for a part contacting at inner face of cathode case and a sheet-shaped anode set on the sheet-shaped cathode in a right angled position each other and bent alternately to form an electrode group, and the total sum of the areas of the opposing cathode and anode in the electrode group larger than the area of the opening of an insulating gasket in a sealed portion in the cathode case or than the area of an opening in a sealed plate in a sealed portion in the cathode case.

  • Patent number: 7378186
    Abstract: In a flat non-aqueous electrolyte secondary cell comprising an electricity-generating element including at least a cathode, a separator and an anode and a non-aqueous electrolyte in the inside of a cathode case, a plurality of electrode units each consisting of the cathode and the anode opposite to each another via the separator are laminated to form an electrode group, or an electrode unit in a sheet form consisting of the cathode and the anode opposite to each another via the separator is wound to form an electrode group, or a sheet-shape cathode is wrapped with the separator except for a part contacting at inner face of cathode case and a sheet-shaped anode is set on the sheet-shaped cathode in a right angled position each other and then these cathode and anode are bent alternately to form an electrode group, and the total sum of the areas of the opposing cathode and anode in this electrode group is larger than the area of the opening of an insulating gasket in a sealed portion in the cathode case or than
