Therefore, conventionally, a battery container in which films are welded to each other, an electrode housed therein, and a flat plate connected to the electrode and exposed to the outside of the battery container through the space between the welded inner surfaces of the film. Batteries with mold leads are used.

[0003] Batteries are housed in an outer box to form a battery pack, and then incorporated into electronic equipment. At this time, the lead is connected to an external circuit such as a protection circuit provided in the outer box. Here, in order to further reduce the size of the electronic device, it is preferable that the size of the outer box is as small as the size of the battery. In order to use a small outer box, it is necessary to bend the lead so that no wasted space is created in the outer box.

In the battery of the present invention, since the radius of curvature of the bent portion of the lead is 0.5 mm or more, breakage of the lead can be prevented. Furthermore, since the radius of curvature is 4 mm or less, no wasted space is created, and the battery is more compact than a conventional battery. As a result, the electronic device can be further downsized. In addition, as a material of the lead, aluminum, nickel, or copper is preferable. In addition, when the bent portion of the lead is covered with an insulating resin, the resistance to the bending load increases, and the effect of preventing the lead from breaking is further enhanced. Examples of the resin coated on the bent portion of the lead include a tube separate from the battery container and an extension of a film forming the battery container.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a front view showing the battery of the first embodiment, and FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing a part of the battery of the first embodiment. The battery 1 of the present embodiment includes a battery container 2, a power generation element 3, and a lead 4, and the battery 1 is housed in an outer box K.

The battery container 2 is composed of a laminated film in which a surface protective layer 2a, a barrier layer 2b made of metal, and a welding layer 2c made of insulating resin are stacked in order from the outside.
It is produced by heat welding the periphery of the film. The power generating element 3 housed therein is composed of a positive electrode plate formed by applying an active material to a current collector, a separator holding an electrolytic solution, and a negative electrode plate formed by applying a host material to the current collector. They are laminated in order and spirally wound.

The lead 4 has a flat plate shape, is connected to the positive and negative plates in the battery case 2, and is exposed outside the battery case 2 between the laminated films at the welded portion 2d. Further, the position where the lead 4 intersects with the end face of the laminate film is covered with a tube 5 made of an insulating resin. Thereby, the airtightness in the battery case 2 is maintained, and the leads 4 and the barrier layer 2 b of the battery case 2 are maintained.

The lead 4 is connected to a protection circuit P provided in the outer box K while bending outside the battery container 2.
The lead 4 is bent using a jig such that the radius of curvature R is in the range of 0.5 to 4 mm. Therefore, the lead 4 does not break, and the overall size of the battery 1 can be reduced. Therefore, the battery 1 can be stored in the outer case K smaller than before, and as a result, the electronic device can be further downsized. Note that lead 4
Is preferably 2 to 7 mm in width and 0.05 to 2.0 mm in thickness, and aluminum,

For the parts other than the lead 3, a material conventionally used may be used. In addition, the method of manufacturing the battery 1 except that the lead 3 is finally bent is as follows.
It is the same as the conventional manufacturing method. When bending the lead 3, it is preferable to bend the lead 3 by 180 degrees with a jig having a radius of 0.5 to 4 mm applied to a portion to be bent.

The battery of the second embodiment is shown in FIG. 3 as a front view. The battery 11 of the present embodiment is the same as the battery 1 of the first embodiment except that the lead 14 is covered with the tube 6 up to the bent portion. The tube 6 covers the bent portion of the lead 14. Therefore, the resistance of the lead 14 to the bending load increases, and the lead 14 is less likely to break. Further, similarly to the first embodiment, the airtightness can be maintained by the tube 6, and a short circuit between the lead 14 and the barrier layer of the battery container 12 can be prevented.

The material of the tube 6 is preferably the same as that of the battery container 12 because the tube 6 is interposed between the lead 14 and the welded layer of the battery container 12 in this embodiment. It is to be noted that, even if the tube 6 is provided only at the bent portion of the lead 14, breakage can be prevented, but in this case, it is not necessary to use the same material as the welding layer. When the lead 14 is bent, similarly to the first embodiment, the lead 14 may be bent so that the radius of curvature of the lead 14 is 0.5 to 4 mm. However, an appropriate jig must be selected in consideration of the thickness of the tube 6. For example, when the thickness of the tube 6 is 100 μm, it is preferable to select a jig having a radius of 0.5 to 3 mm.

FIG. 4 shows a front view of the battery of the third embodiment. In the battery 21 of the present embodiment, the welded portion 22d of the battery container 22 is longer than that of the battery 1 of the first embodiment, and extends to the bent portion of the lead 24. Except for this, it is the same as the battery 1 of the first embodiment. Therefore, the bent portion of the lead 24 comes into close contact with the laminate film of the battery container 22, thereby increasing the resistance to the bending load of the lead 24 and making the lead 24 more difficult to break.
Also, when bending the lead 24, the thickness of the laminate film must be taken into consideration, as in the case of the second embodiment. At this time, care must be taken not only to break the leads 24 but also to prevent the laminate film from breaking or wrinkling.

Further, as comparative examples, the radii of curvature are 0.2 mm (Comparative Example 1), 0.3 mm (Comparative Example 2),
Except for 0.4 mm (Comparative Example 3), 20 batteries each of which were the same as those of Inventive Examples 1 and 2 were prepared and tested similarly. Table 2 shows the results. The conditions for the lead 4 and others are the same as in the first embodiment.

It was 0 μm. Other conditions are the same as those described in the first embodiment. Also, as a comparative example, a battery that was the same as the battery 11 of FIG. 3 except that the lead 14 was not covered with the tube 6 was similarly tested.
