  • Publication number: 20250070424
    Abstract: In a battery, a lid member of a battery case is provided with a terminal part and a resin member. The terminal part has a terminal plate-shaped portion located inside the battery case, which extends wider than a through hole along an inner surface of the lid member. The resin member has an inner resin plate-shaped portion located between the inner surface of the lid member and the terminal plate-shaped portion. The lid member, on the inner surface side around the through hole, includes a protruding portion defined by a protruding inner surface joined to the inner resin plate-shaped portion and protruding toward the inside of the battery case relative to a non-protruding inner surface farther from the through hole than the protruding inner surface. Side surfaces of the protruding portion and the terminal plate-shaped portion do not project outward beyond a side surface of the inner resin plate-shaped portion.

  • Publication number: 20250055090
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a power storage device includes a laser welding step in which a laser beam is irradiated to an opening portion of a case body and a peripheral portion of a case lid member of a lid assembly over the entire circumference to laser weld them while the opening portion of the case body is closed by the case lid member, a shielding step, prior to the laser welding step, in which a shield member is placed in position on the lid assembly to prevent scattered light of the laser beam from reaching a resin member, and a removing step, after the laser welding step, in which the shield member is removed.

A surplus absorption recess (31) is formed by enlarging the opening end of the mounting hole (21), and surplus resin is absorbed. The surplus absorption recess (31) is positioned inside a region of the mold forming portion (17). Therefore, the amount of molten surplus resin that protrudes outward from the welding tip (24) in the thermal caulking process is reduced.
