  However, in the conventional wound type electricity storage element, when the electrode body is inserted into the container, the stress that the electrode body receives from the container becomes non-uniform depending on the position of the electrode body, so that the performance of the electricity storage element decreases. There's a problem.

  FIG. 9 is a diagram for explaining a problem of a conventional wound-type energy storage device. As shown to (a) of the figure, in the electrode body from which the winding shaft was extracted, the space where the winding shaft was arrange | positioned in the center part is formed.

That is, the end portion of the innermost periphery of the electrode body is thinner than the center portion, so that the width A of the end portion of the electrode body shown in FIG. 9B is the length of the width B of the center portion. The electrode body is deformed so as to approach. For this reason, the uniformity of the insertion coefficient when the electrode body is inserted into the container can be improved, and the uniformity of the stress that the electrode body receives from the container can be improved.

  Preferably, the core material has a space in which the end portion in the longitudinal direction has a width in the short-side direction larger than that in the central portion.

  According to this, as for the core material, the space where the width | variety of the edge part of a longitudinal direction is larger than a center part is formed. That is, a space having a larger width at the end portion than at the center portion is formed in the innermost periphery of the electrode body, so that the width A of the end portion of the electrode body shown in FIG. The electrode body is deformed so as to approach the length of the width B. For this reason, the uniformity of the insertion coefficient when the electrode body is inserted into the container can be improved, and the uniformity of the stress that the electrode body receives from the container can be improved.

Yes. That is, the width of the end portion of the winding shaft is larger than that of the central portion, so that a space having a width larger than that of the central portion at the end portion is formed in the innermost periphery of the electrode body.

  Next, a detailed configuration of the electrode body 400 will be described.

  FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the configuration of the electrode body 400 according to the embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, this figure is a cross-sectional view when the electrode body 400 shown in FIG. 1 is cut along the YZ plane.

  As shown in the figure, the electrode body 400 includes a core material 410 and an electrode portion 420 disposed around the core material 410.

  Specifically, the electrode part 420 includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator, and the positive electrode, the negative electrode, and the separator are wound around a winding axis. That is, the electrode body 400 is a wound electrode body. Here, the winding axis is a central axis when the positive electrode, the negative electrode, and the separator are wound.

  The positive electrode is obtained by forming a positive electrode active material layer on the surface of a long belt-like positive electrode base material made of aluminum foil. In addition, the positive electrode used for the electrical storage element 10 according to the present invention is not particularly different from those conventionally used, and those normally used can be used.

For example, as the negative electrode active material, lithium metal, lithium alloy (lithium metal-containing alloys such as lithium-aluminum, lithium-lead, lithium-tin, lithium-aluminum-tin, lithium-gallium, and wood alloy), lithium Alloys, carbon materials (eg, graphite, non-graphitizable carbon, graphitizable carbon, low-temperature calcined carbon, amorphous carbon, etc.), metal oxides, lithium metal oxides (Li ₄ Ti ₆ O ₁₂ Etc.) and polyphosphoric acid compounds.

  The core material 410 is an insulating member arranged on the innermost inner periphery of the electrode portion 420. Specifically, the core material 410 is a core made of resin such as polypropylene or polyethylene, which is disposed on the innermost inner periphery of the wound positive electrode, negative electrode, and separator. That is, the electrode body 400 is formed by winding the positive electrode, the negative electrode, and the separator around the core material 410.

  The core material 410 may be a wound sheet wheel formed by winding a resin sheet, or may be a molded member. Moreover, the core material 410 may be an integrally formed member, or may be formed of a plurality of members. Moreover, the material of the core material 410 is not specifically limited. For example, when a separator is disposed at a position closest to the core material in the electrode body 400, or when the potential of either the positive electrode or the negative electrode is dropped on the core material 410, a conductive material may be used.

  Here, the core material 410 includes a central portion 411 at a central position and end portions 412 at both ends of the central portion 411. Hereinafter, the configuration of the core material 410 will be described in detail.

  FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing the configuration of the core material 410 according to the embodiment of the present invention. In the following, the longitudinal direction (same as the section taken along the YZ plane in the figure) perpendicular to the winding axis (axis in the X-axis direction in the figure) when the electrode part 420 is wound is shown. The Z-axis direction in the figure is referred to as the longitudinal direction of the core material 410. Further, a short direction (cross-section when cut along the YZ plane in the figure) perpendicular to the winding axis (axis in the X-axis direction in the figure) when the electrode section 420 is wound (in the figure) (Y-axis direction) is referred to as the short direction of the core material 410.

  As shown in the figure, the core material 410 is a hollow flat plate-like member extending in the X-axis direction, and includes a central portion 411 at the central portion in the longitudinal direction (Z-axis direction), and in the longitudinal direction (Z-axis direction). End portions 412 are provided at both ends.

  The central part 411 is a part where the outer periphery and the inner periphery are formed as flat surfaces. Specifically, the central portion 411 is composed of two plate-like members arranged with a space in the Y-axis direction. Further, the end portion 412 is a plate-like portion whose outer periphery and inner periphery are formed with curved surfaces. Specifically, the end 412 has an arc-shaped outer shape in a cross-sectional shape on the YZ plane, and an elliptical space is formed inside. Thus, the core material 410 is made of a plate-like member, and has a shape such that the plate-like member is wound once.

  The plate-like member of the core material 410 is formed so that the end portion 412 is thinner in the lateral direction (Y-axis direction) than the central portion 411. For example, the thickness of the two plate-like members in the central portion 411 is 0.1 to 2 mm, and the thickness of the end portion 412 is 0.05 to 0.5 mm. In addition, the thickness of the center part 411 and the edge part 412 is not limited to the said numerical value.

  Further, the core material 410 has a space in which the end portion 412 has a width in the short side direction larger than that of the central portion 411. In the same figure, the central portion 411 has a space whose section in the YZ plane is rectangular, and the end portion 412 has a space whose section in the YZ plane is elliptical. Is not limited to this. For example, the space formed in the end 412 may have a polygonal shape such as a circular shape or a rectangular shape in cross section on the YZ plane.

  With the above configuration, the core material 410 is formed so that the end portion 412 has a smaller space occupancy rate than the central portion 411 in a state where the positive electrode, the negative electrode, and the separator are not wound. Here, the space occupancy indicates the ratio of the length occupied by the core material 410 to the width of the core material 410 in the short direction (Y-axis direction).

  Thus, the core material 410 is formed such that the end portion 412 has lower rigidity than the central portion 411.

  Next, the winding shaft inserted into the core material 410 when the positive electrode, the negative electrode, and the separator are wound around the core material 410 to form the electrode body 400 will be described.

  FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing the configuration of the winding shaft 20 according to the embodiment of the present invention. In the following, similarly to the core material 410, a cross section perpendicular to the winding axis (the axis in the X-axis direction in the figure) when the electrode part 420 is wound (when cut along the YZ plane in the figure) The longitudinal direction (cross-sectional direction) in the cross section) is referred to as the longitudinal direction of the winding shaft 20. Further, a short direction (cross-section when cut along the YZ plane in the figure) perpendicular to the winding axis (axis in the X-axis direction in the figure) when the electrode section 420 is wound (in the figure) (Y-axis direction) is referred to as the short direction of the winding shaft 20.

  The winding shaft 20 is inserted into the core material 410 and is a shaft body for forming the electrode body 400 by winding the positive electrode, the negative electrode, and the separator around the winding axis (X-axis direction axis). As shown in the figure, the winding shaft 20 is a plate-like member extending in the X-axis direction, and has a central portion 21 at the central portion in the longitudinal direction (Z-axis direction), and both end portions in the longitudinal direction (Z-axis direction). The end portion 22 is provided.

  The central portion 21 is a flat plate portion having a flat outer periphery, and the outer surface shape corresponds to the inner surface shape of the central portion 411 of the core material 410. Further, the end 22 is a portion where the outer periphery is formed of a curved surface, and the outer surface shape corresponds to the inner surface shape of the end 412 of the core material 410. Specifically, the end 412 has an elliptical outer shape in the cross-sectional shape on the YZ plane. The shapes of the central portion 21 and the end portion 412 may be any shapes as long as they correspond to the inner surface shapes of the central portion 411 and the end portion 412 of the core material 410. Moreover, the whole winding shaft 20 does not need to correspond to the inner surface shape of the core material 410, and there may be a part having a gap. Furthermore, the length of the core material 410 and the winding shaft 20 may be different in the X-axis direction. For example, when attaching the winding shaft 20 to a winding device or the like, it is preferable that the portion protruding outward from the core material 410 has a simple shape such as a rectangle or a circle rather than corresponding to the shape of the inner surface.

  Thus, the winding shaft 20 is formed such that the end portion 22 has a width in the short side direction (Y-axis direction) larger than that of the central portion 21. The material of the winding shaft 20 is not particularly limited, and may be made of resin or metal.

  Next, a method for manufacturing the electrode body 400 will be described.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram for explaining a method of manufacturing the electrode body 400 according to the embodiment of the present invention.

  As shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B, the winding shaft 20 is inserted into the space inside the core material 410. And as shown to (c) and (d) of the figure, when the winding shaft 20 rotates, a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator are wound around the core material 410, and the electrode body 400 is formed. . Then, after the electrode body 400 is formed, the winding shaft 20 is pulled out.

  Thus, the formed electrode body 400 is accommodated inside the container 100.

  FIG. 6 is a view showing a state in which the electrode body 400 according to the embodiment of the present invention is housed inside the container 100.

  As shown in the figure, the core material 410 is formed such that the end portion 412 has lower rigidity than the central portion 411. Therefore, the end portion 412 is deformed and the stress F1 received from the container 100 is reduced. To reduce. Thereby, the stress F1 received from the container 100 can be close to the stress F2, or the stress F1 can be made smaller than the stress F2.

  As described above, according to the electric storage element 10 according to the embodiment of the present invention, the end portion in the longitudinal direction in the cross section perpendicular to the winding axis is more rigid than the center portion on the innermost periphery of the electrode body 400. Is provided with a low core material 410. That is, the core material 410 is formed so that the end portion in the longitudinal direction has a smaller space occupancy rate than the center portion in a state before winding. Further, the core member 410 is formed of a plate-like member, and the plate-like member is formed so that the end portion in the longitudinal direction is thinner than the center portion. Further, the core material 410 has a space in which the end portion in the longitudinal direction is wider than the center portion. Therefore, when the electrode body 400 is inserted into the container 100 because the electrode body is deformed so that the width A of the end portion of the electrode body shown in FIG. 9B approaches the length of the width B of the center portion. The uniformity of the insertion coefficient can be improved, and the uniformity of the stress that the electrode body 400 receives from the container 100 can be improved. Thereby, since durability of the electrode body 400 can be improved, the performance of the electrical storage element 10 can be improved.

  Similarly, according to the winding shaft 20 according to the embodiment of the present invention, the end in the longitudinal direction in the cross section perpendicular to the winding axis is shorter in the cross section perpendicular to the winding axis than the center. It is formed so that the width in the hand direction is large. That is, the end portion of the winding shaft 20 has a width larger than that of the center portion, so that a space having a width greater at the end portion than that of the center portion is formed in the innermost periphery of the electrode body 400. As a result, an electrode body can be formed that is deformed so that the width A of the end portion of the electrode body shown in FIG. 9B approaches the length of the width B of the center portion. For this reason, the uniformity of the insertion coefficient when the electrode body 400 is inserted into the container 100 can be improved, and the uniformity of the stress that the electrode body 400 receives from the container 100 can be improved.

(Modification 1)
Next, Modification 1 of the present embodiment will be described. FIG. 7 is a perspective view showing the configuration of the core material 410a according to the first modification of the embodiment of the present invention.

  As shown in the figure, the core material 410a includes a central portion 411a at a central portion in the longitudinal direction (Z-axis direction) and end portions 412a at both ends in the longitudinal direction (Z-axis direction). Here, in the first modification, the outer periphery of the central portion 411a is formed with a curved surface protruding outward, which is different from the core material 410 of the above embodiment. Since other configurations are the same as the configurations in the above-described embodiment, the description thereof is omitted.

  As described above, the core member 410a according to the first modification is formed so that the central portion 411a is thicker than the end portion 412a, and thus the end portion 412a is further further than the central portion 411a. Stiffness is reduced. For this reason, the uniformity of the insertion coefficient when the electrode body is inserted into the container can be further improved, and the uniformity of the stress that the electrode body receives from the container can be further improved.

(Modification 2)

Here, in the second modification, the central portion 411a and the end portion 412b have the same thickness, but the end portion 412a is formed of a material having lower rigidity than the central portion 411a. Since other configurations are the same as the configurations in the above-described embodiment, the description thereof is omitted.

  Thus, since the core part 410b which concerns on this modification 2 is shape | molded by the material whose end part 412a has lower rigidity than the center part 411a, the end part 412a is still more rigid than the center part 411a. Becomes lower. For this reason, the uniformity of the insertion coefficient when the electrode body is inserted into the container can be improved, and the uniformity of the stress that the electrode body receives from the container can be improved.

For example, the space formed in the core material 410a in Modification 1 may have the same shape as the space formed in the core material 410b in Modification 2. Further, the central portion 411b of the core material 410b in Modification 2 may have the same shape as the central portion 411a of the core material 410a in Modification 1.
