Abstract: A method for manufacturing a secondary battery in which the preparation of at least one of a positive electrode and ta negative electrode includes forming an electrode material layer on a metal sheet material to serve as an electrode current collector, thereby providing an electrode precursor, and cutting out electrodes from the electrode precursor to form a plurality of electrodes. Each of the electrodes has a non-rectangular shape.

Abstract: A manufacturing method of a secondary battery is provided to improve a manufacturing efficiency of a non-rectangular electrode. The manufacturing method is provided for a secondary battery and includes forming the non-rectangular electrode. The step of forming the electrode includes, prior to forming an electrode precursor by applying an electrode material layer raw material to a metal sheet material that becomes a current collector, controlling a wettability of a local portion of a surface of the metal sheet material to the electrode material layer raw material and forming a wettability control region in the local portion. The local portion becomes a cutaway region of the non-rectangular electrode.

Abstract: An electric storage device includes a case having a substantially rectangular shape including a cutout part. An electrode body is disposed in the case and includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and a separator disposed between the first and second electrodes. An electrolyte is located in the case and at least partially impregnating the electrode body. A first electrode terminal is located on a first part of a side surface of the case and is electrically connected to the first electrode by a first connection member which has elasticity in a direction extending from the first electrode terminal to the first electrode. A second electrode terminal is located on a second part of the side surface of the case and is electrically connected to the second electrode by a second elastic connection member which has elasticity in a direction extending from the second electrode terminal to the second electrode.

Abstract: An electrical storage device includes a case having first and second opposed main walls which face one another and at least one side wall coupled the first and second main walls. The case having a generally rectangular shape with outer corners and includes a cutout part having inner corners. An integrated electrode body is located in the case and is joined to the first main wall. The integrated body includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and a separator disposed between the first and second electrodes. The electrode body has a bending strength which is higher than a bending strength of the first main wall. An electrolyte fills the case.

Abstract: An electric storage device comprises a rectangular parallelepiped case including first and second opposed main walls which are separated in a thickness direction of the case. An integrated electrode body is located in the case between the first and second main walls. The integrated electrode body includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator disposed between the positive and the negative electrodes. The electrode body has a bending strength which is higher than bending strength of the first main wall which is physically coupled to the electrode body. An electrolyte is located in the case.
