Abstract: A battery including: a power generating element having a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator; a battery case for housing the power generating element; a battery cover for closing the battery case; and a lead for electrically connecting a terminal provided for the battery cover and the positive electrode or the negative electrode, wherein a part in which the lead and the positive electrode or the negative electrode are electrically connected to each other is sandwiched by an insulating member.

Abstract: A battery in which a power generating element is accommodated in a battery case, wherein the battery case is composed of a flexible sheet, and at least part of the power generating element is covered with a cover member. This prevents the inner face of the flexible sheet from being damaged.

Abstract: A cell such as a nonaqueous electrolytic secondary cell includes a plurality of power-generating elements which each include a strip-like positive electrode and a strip-like negative electrode that are both wound into an elliptic cylinder with a separator being interposed therebetween, where each power-generating element has a peripheral face including at least a flat portion. The cell also includes a cell case for housing the power-generating elements, where the cell case has an opening, and a cover hermetically sealing the opening of the cell case. The flat portion of each power-generating element is superposed on the flat portion of the adjacent power-generating element, and a sheet member is wound around peripheries of the superposed power-generating elements to fasten the power-generating elements such that the power-generating elements are integrated.
