In the explosion-proof stopper for a storage battery according to the third aspect, a groove is formed obliquely upward along the circumferential direction in the upper inner periphery of the gas passage in the explosion-proof stopper main body, and the outer periphery of the explosion-proof filter is fitted into the groove. The explosion-proof filter is supported obliquely, and the upper part of the explosion-proof filter in the inclined direction is disengaged from the groove when abnormal gas pressure acts on the lower surface of the explosion-proof filter on the upper surface of the obliquely upward groove in the inclined direction. Since the gas pressure in the storage battery rises abnormally because the tapered surface is formed and the pressure acts on the lower surface of the explosion-proof filter that is clogged, the upper part of the explosion-proof filter that is arranged obliquely upwards in the inclination direction,
Due to the tapered surface on the upper surface of the groove, the gas can be released from the groove to open the gas passage, and the gas can be discharged from the exhaust port. Therefore, even if the explosion-proof filter is clogged, explosion of the storage battery due to gas pressure can be prevented.

In the explosion-proof plug for a storage battery according to the fourth aspect, the splash-proof mechanism is formed of a light-transmitting material and provided below the explosion-proof plug main body according to the first, second, or third aspect. When the clogged explosion-proof filter opens the gas passage, the exhaust port becomes bright, and it can be easily known that the explosion-proof filter has come off.
