Description

本発明は、開口弁、当該開口弁を備える蓋体、容体、及び容器の技術に関する。   The present invention relates to an open valve, a lid body, a container including the open valve, and a container.

蓋体と容体とをカーリング等のかしめ、レーザ等の接合等により一体形成される容器には、電池(電池ケース)、缶詰、飲料缶等がある。そして、電池、缶詰等の容器は、容体内に収容体(電池の場合は、電極体、缶詰、飲料缶等の場合は、食物、飲料水等)が収容されてから、蓋体と容体とをかしめ、又は接合等により製造される。電極体とは、充放電を行うための電池の電気化学的要素である。   Examples of the container integrally formed by caulking the lid and the container, such as curling, and joining with a laser or the like, include a battery (battery case), a can, a beverage can, and the like. A container such as a battery or canned container contains a container (in the case of a battery, an electrode body, in the case of a canned or beverage can, food, drinking water, etc.), and then the lid and container. It is manufactured by caulking or joining. An electrode body is an electrochemical element of a battery for charging and discharging.

例えば、容器を電池に用いる場合、電池が過充電等の異常環境等に置かれると、容器内でガスが発生し、容器を破裂させる危険性が考えられる。このため、容器が破裂しないように、容器には、開口弁が設けられている。開口弁は、ガス発生により、容器の内圧が上昇した場合に、自ら開口して、容器内のガスを強制的に外部に排気させることができる。   For example, when a container is used for a battery, if the battery is placed in an abnormal environment such as overcharge, there is a risk that gas is generated in the container and the container is ruptured. For this reason, the opening valve is provided in the container so that the container may not burst. When the internal pressure of the container rises due to gas generation, the opening valve can be opened by itself to forcibly exhaust the gas in the container to the outside.

また、例えば、容器を缶詰、飲料缶等に用いる場合にも、その容器には開口弁が設けられている。この場合の開口弁は、主に缶詰等に収容される収容物を取り出すためのものである(一般的には、プルトップと呼ばれている)。   Further, for example, when a container is used for canned foods, beverage cans, etc., the container is provided with an opening valve. The opening valve in this case is mainly for taking out the contents stored in canned food or the like (generally called a pull top).

次に、開口弁の構成について説明する。図7は、容器に設けられる一般的な開口弁の構成を示す模式平面図である。また、図8は、図7に示すA−A線における開口弁の模式断面図である。図7及び8に示す開口弁50は、容器52(図7及び8では、容器の一部を表している)に設けられ、容器52に所定の圧力が加わると開口する薄肉部54と、薄肉部54の開口を容易にするための破砕溝56とを備えるものである。   Next, the configuration of the opening valve will be described. FIG. 7 is a schematic plan view showing a configuration of a general opening valve provided in the container. FIG. 8 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the opening valve taken along line AA shown in FIG. The opening valve 50 shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 is provided in a container 52 (a part of the container is shown in FIGS. 7 and 8), and has a thin wall portion 54 that opens when a predetermined pressure is applied to the container 52. The crushing groove | channel 56 for making the opening of the part 54 easy is provided.

ここで、開口弁50の薄肉部54及び破砕溝56は、容器52に所定の圧力が加わると開口する肉厚に設定される。例えば、電池の場合の所定の圧力とは、容器内のガス発生により、容器が破裂する圧力より低い圧力等である。また、缶詰等の場合の所定の圧力とは、開口弁(プルトップ部)を開けるために加えられる圧力や、高温加熱等の異常環境化に晒された場合の缶詰等が破壊する圧力より低い圧力等である。   Here, the thin wall portion 54 and the crushing groove 56 of the opening valve 50 are set to a thickness that opens when a predetermined pressure is applied to the container 52. For example, the predetermined pressure in the case of a battery is a pressure lower than the pressure at which the container bursts due to gas generation in the container. Moreover, the predetermined pressure in the case of canned foods is a pressure lower than the pressure applied to open the opening valve (pull top part) or the pressure at which the canned foods break down when exposed to abnormal environments such as high-temperature heating. Etc.

そして、容器に所定の圧力が加わった際に、薄肉部及び破砕溝が開口するように、様々な構造の開口弁が提案されている。   And the opening valve of various structures is proposed so that a thin part and a crushing groove may open when predetermined pressure is applied to a container.

例えば、特許文献1には、薄肉部の端部が電池ケースに向かって肉厚を漸増する傾斜部を有する開口弁が提案されている。   For example, Patent Document 1 proposes an opening valve having an inclined portion in which an end of a thin portion gradually increases in thickness toward a battery case.

また、例えば、特許文献2には、電池ケースに設けられるラプチャー板(開口弁)の厚肉部と厚肉部との間に存在する薄肉部を放射方向に延在させた開口弁が提案されている。   In addition, for example, Patent Document 2 proposes an opening valve in which a thin portion existing between a thick portion and a thick portion of a rupture plate (open valve) provided in a battery case extends in a radial direction. ing.

また、例えば、特許文献3には、ラプチャー板の厚肉部の厚さを段階的に薄くして破砕溝を形成した開口弁が提案されている。   For example, Patent Document 3 proposes an opening valve in which a crushing groove is formed by gradually reducing the thickness of a thick portion of a rupture plate.

また、例えば、特許文献4には、電池ケースの封口用のガスケットに備えられた環状薄肉部をガスケット軸部に対して、電池内部側に鋭角に形成した開口弁が提案されている。   For example, Patent Document 4 proposes an opening valve in which an annular thin portion provided in a gasket for sealing a battery case is formed at an acute angle on the battery inner side with respect to the gasket shaft portion.

しかし、特許文献1の開口弁では、傾斜部が、薄肉部の端部にのみ設けられ、肉厚が漸増するものであるため、容器の製造時に、衝撃、応力等が加わった場合、上記傾斜部では、応力等を緩和することができず、薄肉部の破損等が起こる場合がある。   However, in the opening valve of Patent Document 1, since the inclined portion is provided only at the end of the thin portion and the thickness gradually increases, when the impact, stress, or the like is applied during the manufacture of the container, the above inclined portion is provided. In the part, stress or the like cannot be relaxed, and the thin part may be damaged.

また、特許文献2〜4の開口弁では、薄肉部と容器とが直接連結しているため、容器の製造時に、衝撃、応力等が加わった場合、応力等は、緩和されることなく薄肉部に容易に伝わり、薄肉部の破損等が起こる場合がある。   Moreover, in the opening valve of patent documents 2-4, since the thin part and the container are directly connected, when an impact, stress, etc. are added at the time of manufacture of a container, stress etc. are not relieved, but a thin part. In some cases, the thin portion may be damaged.

特に、蓋と容体とをカーリング等のかしめ、レーザ等の接合により、一体形成する容器を製造する場合には、かしめ等を行う際に、容器に加わる引張応力(例えば、図8に示す矢印X)によって、薄肉部が延伸又は破損する場合がある。薄肉部が延伸すると、薄肉部の開口する圧力にばらつきが生じ、所定の圧力以下で開口する場合がある。   In particular, when manufacturing a container that is integrally formed by caulking the lid and the container, such as by curling, or joining by laser or the like, the tensile stress applied to the container during caulking or the like (for example, the arrow X shown in FIG. 8). ) May cause the thin portion to stretch or break. When the thin portion is stretched, the pressure at which the thin portion is opened varies and may be opened at a predetermined pressure or lower.

本発明の実施の形態について以下説明する。   Embodiments of the present invention will be described below.

図1は、本発明の実施形態に係る容器の構成の一例を示す模式斜視図である。図1に示すように、容器1は、蓋体10と、容体12と、開口弁14とを備えている。また、容体12内には、不図示の収容体(例えば、電池の場合には、電極体、缶詰め等の場合には、食物、飲料水等)が収容されている。容器1は、蓋体10と容体12とをカーリング(二重巻き締め法)等のかしめ(図1に示すかしめ部16)により一体成形されたものである。但し、必ずしもこれに限定されるものではなく、レーザ等の接合、金型等による成形(蓋体10と容体12との一体成形)等であってもよい。容器1の製造の際の作業性等の点で、蓋体10と容体12とをカーリング等のかしめ、レーザ等の接合等により一体形成されるものが好ましい。また、製造コスト等の点でカーリング等のかしめ等により一体形成されるものがより好ましい。   FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view illustrating an example of a configuration of a container according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the container 1 includes a lid body 10, a container 12, and an opening valve 14. Further, a container (not shown) (for example, an electrode body in the case of a battery, food, drinking water or the like in the case of canning, etc.) is accommodated in the container 12. The container 1 is formed by integrally molding the lid 10 and the container 12 by caulking (caulking portion 16 shown in FIG. 1) such as curling (double winding method). However, the present invention is not necessarily limited to this, and may be joining with a laser or the like, molding with a mold or the like (integral molding of the lid body 10 and the container 12), and the like. From the standpoint of workability in manufacturing the container 1, it is preferable that the lid body 10 and the container 12 are integrally formed by caulking or the like, joining with a laser or the like. In addition, it is more preferable to integrally form by caulking such as curling in view of manufacturing cost.

本実施形態では、開口弁14は、蓋体10に設けられているが、これに限定されるものではなく、容体12に設けてもよい。すなわち、開口弁14は、蓋体10及び容体12のうち少なくともいずれか一方に設けられていればよい。   In the present embodiment, the opening valve 14 is provided on the lid body 10, but is not limited thereto, and may be provided on the container 12. That is, the opening valve 14 only needs to be provided on at least one of the lid 10 and the container 12.

図2は、本発明の実施形態に係る容器の構成の一例を示す一部模式平面図である。図3は、図2に示すA−A線における容器の模式断面図である。図2及び3に示すように、開口弁14は、破砕溝18を形成した薄肉部20と、蓋体10と薄肉部20とを連結する傾斜部22とを備えるものである。   FIG. 2 is a partial schematic plan view showing an example of the configuration of the container according to the embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 3 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the container taken along line AA shown in FIG. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the opening valve 14 includes a thin portion 20 in which the crushing groove 18 is formed, and an inclined portion 22 that connects the lid 10 and the thin portion 20.

薄肉部20は、所定の圧力が加わった時に、開口するものである。薄肉部20の肉厚(厚さ)は、薄肉部20に加わる所定の圧力、薄肉部20を構成する材料等に応じて適宜設定されればよい。所定の圧力とは、上記でも説明したように、電池を例とすれば、容器1内のガス発生により、容器1が破裂する圧力より低い圧力等である。また、缶詰等を例とすれば、開口弁14(プルトップ部)を開けるために加えられる圧力や、高温加熱等の異常環境化に晒された場合の缶詰等が破裂する圧力より低い圧力等である。   The thin part 20 opens when a predetermined pressure is applied. The thickness (thickness) of the thin portion 20 may be appropriately set according to a predetermined pressure applied to the thin portion 20, a material constituting the thin portion 20, and the like. As described above, the predetermined pressure is, for example, a pressure lower than the pressure at which the container 1 bursts due to the generation of gas in the container 1. Taking canned food as an example, the pressure applied to open the opening valve 14 (pull top portion), the pressure lower than the pressure at which the canned food bursts when exposed to abnormal environments such as high temperature heating, etc. is there.

薄肉部20を構成する材料は、水、有機溶媒等の溶液に対して耐腐食性を有するものであれば特に制限されるものではないが、開口弁14の製造が容易である点で、容器1を構成する材料と同様のものを用いることが好ましい。例えば、電池を例とすれば、アルミ、導電性プラスチック、ニッケルメッキ鋼板、鉄、SUS等が挙げられ、缶詰等であれば、アルミ、スチール等が挙げられる。   Although the material which comprises the thin part 20 will not be restrict | limited especially if it has corrosion resistance with respect to solutions, such as water and an organic solvent, it is a container at the point which manufacture of the opening valve 14 is easy. It is preferable to use the same material as that constituting 1. For example, when the battery is taken as an example, aluminum, conductive plastic, nickel-plated steel plate, iron, SUS, and the like can be cited.

破砕溝18は、所定の圧力が加わったときに、薄肉部20の開口を容易にするためのものである。したがって、薄肉部20の開口を容易にすることができれば、破砕溝18の形状、深さは、特に制限されるものではない。   The crushing groove 18 is for facilitating opening of the thin portion 20 when a predetermined pressure is applied. Therefore, if the opening of the thin portion 20 can be facilitated, the shape and depth of the crushing groove 18 are not particularly limited.

図2及び3に示すように傾斜部22は、薄肉部20の周囲に、薄肉部20と蓋体10とを連結するものであって、薄肉部20から蓋体10に向かって傾斜するものである。   As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the inclined portion 22 connects the thin portion 20 and the lid 10 around the thin portion 20, and is inclined from the thin portion 20 toward the lid 10. is there.

図3に示す傾斜部22は、薄肉部20から蓋体10に向かって傾斜しているものであり、薄肉部20が容器1の内側、すなわち蓋体10の面より容器1内部に配置されるような角度、長さに調整されている。本実施形態での傾斜部22は、薄肉部20から蓋体10に向かって傾斜していれば、傾斜部22の角度、長さは、特に制限されるものではない。また、本実施形態では、開口弁14を蓋体10に設けるものを例として説明しているが、上記でも説明したように、容体12に設けるものであってもよい。すなわち、傾斜部22は、薄肉部20から容体12に向かって傾斜しているものであり、容体12の面より容器1内部に配置されるような角度、長さに調整されているものでもよい。   The inclined part 22 shown in FIG. 3 is inclined from the thin part 20 toward the lid 10, and the thin part 20 is arranged inside the container 1, that is, inside the container 1 from the surface of the lid 10. The angle and length are adjusted. As long as the inclined part 22 in this embodiment inclines toward the cover body 10 from the thin part 20, the angle and length of the inclined part 22 are not specifically limited. In the present embodiment, the opening valve 14 is provided on the lid 10 as an example. However, as described above, the opening valve 14 may be provided on the container 12. That is, the inclined portion 22 is inclined from the thin portion 20 toward the container 12, and may be adjusted to an angle and length such that the inclined portion 22 is disposed inside the container 1 from the surface of the container 12. .

図4(イ)及び(ロ)は、本発明の他の実施形態に係る開口弁の構成の一例を示す模式断面図である。図4(イ)に示す傾斜部22は、薄肉部20から蓋体10に向かって傾斜し、薄肉部20が容器1の外側、すなわち蓋体10の面より容器1外部に配置されるような角度、長さに調整されている。また、図4(ロ)に示す傾斜部22は、薄肉部20から蓋体10に向かって傾斜し、蓋体10の肉厚内に薄肉部20が収まるような角度、長さに調整されるものであってもよい。本実施形態に適用される傾斜部としては、傾斜部22を容易に形成することができる点で、薄肉部20から蓋体10に向かって傾斜し、薄肉部20を容器1の内側又は外側に配置されるような角度、長さに調整されたものであることが好ましい。また、容器1を製造する際に、薄肉部20が損傷することを防ぐことができる点で、薄肉部20から蓋体10に向かって傾斜し、蓋体10の肉厚内に薄肉部が収まるような角度、長さに調整されたものであることが好ましい。   4 (a) and 4 (b) are schematic cross-sectional views showing an example of the configuration of an open valve according to another embodiment of the present invention. The inclined portion 22 shown in FIG. 4A is inclined from the thin portion 20 toward the lid body 10, and the thin portion 20 is arranged outside the container 1, that is, outside the container 1 from the surface of the lid body 10. The angle and length are adjusted. In addition, the inclined portion 22 shown in FIG. 4B is adjusted to an angle and length so that the inclined portion 22 is inclined from the thin portion 20 toward the lid body 10 and the thin portion 20 is accommodated within the thickness of the lid body 10. It may be a thing. The inclined portion applied to the present embodiment is inclined from the thin portion 20 toward the lid body 10 in that the inclined portion 22 can be easily formed, and the thin portion 20 is placed inside or outside the container 1. It is preferable that the angle and length are adjusted so as to be arranged. Further, when the container 1 is manufactured, the thin portion 20 can be prevented from being damaged, so that the thin portion 20 is inclined from the thin portion 20 toward the lid body 10 and the thin portion falls within the thickness of the lid body 10. It is preferable that the angle and length are adjusted.

傾斜部22の形状は、図3,4に示すような直線状に限られず、波状、矩形状等であってもよいが、傾斜部22を容易に形成することができる点で、傾斜部22の形状は、直線状であることが好ましい。   The shape of the inclined portion 22 is not limited to a linear shape as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, and may be a wave shape, a rectangular shape, or the like. However, the inclined portion 22 can be easily formed. The shape is preferably linear.

次に、蓋体と容体とをかしめる際に加わる引張応力について説明する。蓋体10と容体12とを後述するレーザ等の接合、カーリング等のかしめにより一体形成する際に、開口弁14には、開口弁14からかしめ部16(図2に示す)に向う引張応力(例えば図3に示す矢印X)が加わる。本実施形態の開口弁14には、傾斜部22が備えられているため、薄肉部20及び破砕溝18に加わる引張応力を緩和することができる。これは、引張応力によって、傾斜部22が引張られる(変形する)ため、薄肉部20及び破砕溝18に加わる引張応力を緩和することができるためである。   Next, the tensile stress applied when caulking the lid and the container will be described. When the lid body 10 and the container body 12 are integrally formed by joining with a laser or the like to be described later, or by caulking such as curling, a tensile stress (from the opening valve 14 toward the caulking portion 16 (shown in FIG. 2) ( For example, an arrow X) shown in FIG. 3 is added. Since the opening valve 14 of the present embodiment includes the inclined portion 22, the tensile stress applied to the thin portion 20 and the crushing groove 18 can be relaxed. This is because the inclined portion 22 is pulled (deformed) by the tensile stress, so that the tensile stress applied to the thin portion 20 and the crushing groove 18 can be relaxed.

そして、引張応力によって、傾斜部22が引張られるためには、傾斜部22の肉厚は、容器1の肉厚より薄くする必要がある。本実施形態のように、蓋体10に開口弁14が備えられている場合、蓋体10の肉厚より薄くする必要がある。同様に、容体12に開口弁14が備えられている場合には、容体12の肉厚より薄くし、蓋体10、容体12にそれぞれ開口弁14が備えられている場合には、各開口弁14が備えられる蓋体10、容体12の肉厚より薄くする必要がある。傾斜部22の肉厚が、容器1の肉厚(蓋体10、容体12の肉厚)と同じか又は厚いと、引張応力によって、傾斜部22が引張られることが困難となり、薄肉部20及び破砕溝18に引張応力を伝え、開口弁14を開口させてしまう場合がある。   And in order for the inclined part 22 to be pulled by the tensile stress, it is necessary to make the thickness of the inclined part 22 thinner than the thickness of the container 1. When the opening 10 is provided in the lid 10 as in the present embodiment, it is necessary to make it thinner than the thickness of the lid 10. Similarly, when the container 12 is provided with the opening valve 14, it is thinner than the thickness of the container 12, and when each of the lid body 10 and the container 12 is provided with the opening valve 14, each opening valve 14 is provided. 14 is required to be thinner than the wall thickness of the lid body 10 and the container 12. If the thickness of the inclined portion 22 is the same as or thicker than the thickness of the container 1 (the thickness of the lid 10 and the container 12), it becomes difficult for the inclined portion 22 to be pulled due to the tensile stress, and the thin portion 20 and A tensile stress may be transmitted to the crushing groove 18 and the opening valve 14 may be opened.

傾斜部22の肉厚(図3に示す傾斜部22の肉厚B)は、容器1の肉厚(図3に示す蓋体10の肉厚D)より薄いものであればよいが、傾斜部22の強度、引張応力の緩和の点で、傾斜部22の肉厚Bと容器1の肉厚(蓋体10の肉厚D)との比(B/D)が、0.03〜0.5の範囲であることが好ましい。   The thickness of the inclined portion 22 (thickness B of the inclined portion 22 shown in FIG. 3) may be thinner than the thickness of the container 1 (thickness D of the lid 10 shown in FIG. 3). The ratio (B / D) between the thickness B of the inclined portion 22 and the thickness of the container 1 (thickness D of the lid body 10) is 0.03 to 0.0. A range of 5 is preferable.

また、傾斜部22の肉厚は、薄肉部20の肉厚と同程度であることがより好ましい。傾斜部22の肉厚が、薄肉部20より厚すぎると、引張応力によって、傾斜部22が引張られることが困難となり、薄肉部20及び破砕溝18に引張応力を伝え、開口弁14を開口させてしまう場合がある。また、薄肉部20より薄すぎると、引張応力により、傾斜部22が破損してしまう場合がある。   The thickness of the inclined portion 22 is more preferably about the same as the thickness of the thin portion 20. If the thickness of the inclined portion 22 is too thicker than the thin portion 20, it becomes difficult for the inclined portion 22 to be pulled due to the tensile stress, and the tensile stress is transmitted to the thin portion 20 and the crushing groove 18 to open the opening valve 14. May end up. Moreover, when it is thinner than the thin part 20, the inclined part 22 may be damaged by tensile stress.

傾斜部22と薄肉部20との肉厚が同程度とは、薄肉部20の肉厚(図3に示す薄肉部20の肉厚A)と傾斜部22の肉厚(図3に示す傾斜部22の肉厚B)との比(B/A)が、0.05〜1.5の範囲であることが好ましい。薄肉部20の肉厚(A)と傾斜部22の肉厚(B)との比(B/A)が0.05より低いと、容器1に加わる所定の圧力より低い圧力で傾斜部22が開口する場合があり、1.5より高いと、蓋体10と容体12とをかしめる際に、薄肉部20及び破砕溝18が延びて、容器1に加わる所定の圧力より低い圧力で薄肉部20及び破砕溝18が開口する場合がある。   The thicknesses of the inclined portion 22 and the thin portion 20 are approximately equal to the thickness of the thin portion 20 (thickness A of the thin portion 20 shown in FIG. 3) and the thickness of the inclined portion 22 (the inclined portion shown in FIG. 3). The ratio (B / A) to the thickness B) of 22 is preferably in the range of 0.05 to 1.5. When the ratio (B / A) of the thickness (A) of the thin portion 20 and the thickness (B) of the inclined portion 22 is lower than 0.05, the inclined portion 22 is moved at a pressure lower than a predetermined pressure applied to the container 1. When it is higher than 1.5, when the lid 10 and the container 12 are caulked, the thin wall portion 20 and the crushing groove 18 extend, and the thin wall portion is at a pressure lower than a predetermined pressure applied to the container 1. 20 and crushing groove 18 may open.

また、薄肉部20の肉厚Aは、傾斜部22と同様に、容器1の肉厚(図3に示す蓋体10の肉厚D)より薄いものであり、薄肉部20の肉厚Aと容器1の肉厚(蓋体10の肉厚D)との比(B/D)が、0.03〜0.5の範囲であることが好ましい。   Further, the thickness A of the thin portion 20 is thinner than the thickness of the container 1 (thickness D of the lid 10 shown in FIG. 3), similar to the inclined portion 22, and the thickness A of the thin portion 20 is The ratio (B / D) to the thickness of the container 1 (thickness D of the lid 10) is preferably in the range of 0.03 to 0.5.

さらに、薄肉部20の肉厚A、傾斜部22の肉厚Bは、溝部18の肉厚(図3に示す溝部18の肉厚C)より薄いものである。   Furthermore, the thickness A of the thin portion 20 and the thickness B of the inclined portion 22 are thinner than the thickness of the groove portion 18 (thickness C of the groove portion 18 shown in FIG. 3).

開口弁14は、例えば、容器1(蓋体10又は容体12)に、凹凸部材の金型等を押圧する押圧加工、鍛造加工等の塑性加工等を施して、薄肉部20及び傾斜部22を成形した後、薄肉部20にコイニング加工等の塑性加工等を施して、破砕溝18を形成することにより得られる。しかし、開口弁14の形成方法は、上記に限定されるものではない。   The opening valve 14 performs, for example, a pressing process for pressing a metal mold or the like of a concavo-convex member, a plastic process such as a forging process on the container 1 (the lid body 10 or the container 12), so that the thin portion 20 and the inclined portion 22 are formed. After the forming, the thin-walled portion 20 is obtained by forming a crushing groove 18 by performing plastic processing such as coining. However, the formation method of the opening valve 14 is not limited to the above.

本実施形態の容器は、蓋体と容体とをかしめにより一体形成されるもの、例えば、電池(後述する)、缶詰、飲料缶等に用いられる。   The container according to the present embodiment is used for a cover and a container that are integrally formed by caulking, for example, a battery (described later), a can, a beverage can, and the like.

本実施形態の容器の適用例として、電池を例に説明する。電池とは、非水電解液二次電池、アルカリ系二次電池及び各種一次電池であるが、以下に、非水電解液二次電池を例として説明する。   A battery will be described as an example of application of the container of the present embodiment. The battery is a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery, an alkaline secondary battery, and various primary batteries. Hereinafter, the non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery will be described as an example.

図5は、本発明の実施形態に係る開口弁を備える非水電解液二次電池の構成の一例を示す模式斜視図である。図5に示すように、非水電解液二次電池2は、封口板(蓋体)24と、外装缶(容体)26と、上記説明した開口弁14とを備えている。非水電解液二次電池2は、外装缶26内に電極体(不図示)を収容し、外装缶26と封口板24とをカーリング等のかしめ(図5に示すかしめ部28)により得られる。   FIG. 5 is a schematic perspective view illustrating an example of a configuration of a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery including the opening valve according to the embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 5, the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery 2 includes a sealing plate (lid body) 24, an outer can (container) 26, and the opening valve 14 described above. The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery 2 is obtained by housing an electrode body (not shown) in an outer can 26 and caulking the outer can 26 and the sealing plate 24 (caulking portion 28 shown in FIG. 5). .

上記でも説明したように、開口弁14は、必ずしも封口板24に設けられる必要はなく、外装缶26に設けられるものであってもよい。開口弁14は、上記説明したものと同様のもの(例えば、図3,4に示す開口弁14)である。   As described above, the opening valve 14 is not necessarily provided on the sealing plate 24 and may be provided on the outer can 26. The opening valve 14 is the same as that described above (for example, the opening valve 14 shown in FIGS. 3 and 4).

封口板24には、端子孔(不図示)、注液口(不図示)が設けられている。端子孔には、絶縁材料30を介して、電極端子32a,32bが挿入されている。また、注液口は、封栓34によって塞がれている。   The sealing plate 24 is provided with terminal holes (not shown) and liquid injection ports (not shown). Electrode terminals 32 a and 32 b are inserted into the terminal holes via an insulating material 30. Further, the liquid injection port is closed by a plug 34.

電極体とは、充放電を行うための非水電解液二次電池2の電気化学的な要素である。具体的には、電極体は、正極と負極とをセパレータを介して捲回したものである。正極とは、例えば、アルミ箔に正極活物質(LiCoO2等)が形成されたものであり、負極とは、銅箔に負極活物質(黒鉛等)が形成されたものである。また、セパレータは、正極と負極とを電気的、物理的に離間するものであり、例えば、ポリエチレン樹脂膜等の多孔性樹脂膜等を使用することができる。 The electrode body is an electrochemical element of the non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery 2 for charging and discharging. Specifically, the electrode body is obtained by winding a positive electrode and a negative electrode through a separator. The positive electrode is, for example, an aluminum foil formed with a positive electrode active material (LiCoO 2 or the like), and the negative electrode is a copper foil formed with a negative electrode active material (graphite or the like). Further, the separator electrically and physically separates the positive electrode and the negative electrode, and for example, a porous resin film such as a polyethylene resin film can be used.

次に、非水電解液二次電池の製造方法の一例について説明する。   Next, an example of a method for producing a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery will be described.

上記説明した正極に正極リード、負極に負極リードを溶接する。正極リード及び負極リードは、封口板24に設けられた電極端子32a,32bに溶接される。電極体を外装缶26内に収容し、封口板24と外装缶26とをカーリング等のかしめにより封口する。そして封口板に設けられた注液口(不図示)から、電解液を注入する。電解液を注入後、注液口を封栓34で塞ぐ。電解液は、例えば、エチレンカーボネートとジメチルカーボネートとの混合溶媒に、LiPF6を溶解したもの等を用いることができる。 A positive electrode lead is welded to the positive electrode described above, and a negative electrode lead is welded to the negative electrode. The positive electrode lead and the negative electrode lead are welded to electrode terminals 32 a and 32 b provided on the sealing plate 24. The electrode body is accommodated in the outer can 26, and the sealing plate 24 and the outer can 26 are sealed by caulking or the like. And electrolyte solution is inject | poured from the injection hole (not shown) provided in the sealing board. After injecting the electrolytic solution, the injection port is closed with a plug 34. As the electrolytic solution, for example, a solution obtained by dissolving LiPF 6 in a mixed solvent of ethylene carbonate and dimethyl carbonate can be used.

以上のように、本実施形態では、容器に設けられる開口弁が、薄肉部から容器に向かって傾斜し、薄肉部の肉厚と同程度の肉厚を有する傾斜部を備えることによって、蓋体(封口板)と容体(外装缶)とをかしめ、又は接合する際に、薄肉部に加わる引張応力を緩和させることができる。したがって、引張応力によって、薄肉部及び破砕溝の延伸、破損を抑制することができる。さらに、容器の落下等の衝撃も緩和することができるため、容器の落下時による衝撃によっても、開口弁が破損することを抑制することができる。   As described above, in the present embodiment, the opening valve provided in the container is inclined from the thin part toward the container, and includes an inclined part having a thickness similar to the thickness of the thin part. When the (sealing plate) and the container (exterior can) are caulked or joined, the tensile stress applied to the thin portion can be relaxed. Therefore, extension and breakage of the thin wall portion and the crushing groove can be suppressed by the tensile stress. Furthermore, since the impact such as the drop of the container can be reduced, the opening valve can be prevented from being damaged by the impact caused by the drop of the container.

以下に、実施例により本発明を更に詳細に説明するが、本発明はその要旨を変えない限り、以下の実施例により何ら制限されるものではない。   Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to examples. However, the present invention is not limited to the following examples unless the gist thereof is changed.

<実施例>
板材(厚み:0.8mm)に、プレス加工を施して、図3に示す薄肉部20及び傾斜部22を形成し、薄肉部20に、コイニング加工を施して、破砕溝18を形成し、開口弁14を作製した。開口弁14の薄肉部20の厚みは0.15mm、傾斜部22の厚みは0.1mmであった。これを実施例とした。
<Example>
The plate material (thickness: 0.8 mm) is pressed to form the thin portion 20 and the inclined portion 22 shown in FIG. 3, and the thin portion 20 is subjected to coining to form the crushing groove 18, and the opening Valve 14 was made. The thickness of the thin portion 20 of the opening valve 14 was 0.15 mm, and the thickness of the inclined portion 22 was 0.1 mm. This was taken as an example.

<比較例1,2>
図6(イ)は、比較例1の開口弁の構成を示す模式断面図であり、図6(ロ)は、比較例2の開口弁の構成を示す模式断面図である。比較例1は、板材42(厚み:0.8mm)に、プレス加工を施して、薄肉部36を形成し、薄肉部36に、コイニング加工を施して、破砕溝38を形成し、開口弁44を作製したものである。開口弁44の薄肉部36の厚みは、0.15mmであった。比較例2は、板材46(厚み:0.15mm)に、コイニング加工を施して、破砕溝40を形成し、開口弁48を作製したものである。
<Comparative Examples 1 and 2>
6A is a schematic cross-sectional view showing the configuration of the open valve of Comparative Example 1, and FIG. 6B is a schematic cross-sectional view showing the configuration of the open valve of Comparative Example 2. In Comparative Example 1, the plate material 42 (thickness: 0.8 mm) is pressed to form the thin portion 36, the thin portion 36 is coined to form the crushing groove 38, and the opening valve 44 Is produced. The thickness of the thin portion 36 of the opening valve 44 was 0.15 mm. In Comparative Example 2, the plate material 46 (thickness: 0.15 mm) was subjected to coining to form the crushing groove 40, and the opening valve 48 was produced.

<開弁圧の評価>
上記実施例1及び比較例1,2の作製後の開弁圧、実施例1及び比較例1,2と容体(厚さ:0.5mm)とをカーリングにより、容器(図1に示すよう容器1)形成した後の開弁圧を測定し、下記基準に基づいて開弁圧の評価を行った。その結果を表1にまとめた。
<Evaluation of valve opening pressure>
The valve opening pressure after production of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 above, and Examples 1 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 and the container (thickness: 0.5 mm) were curled to form a container (container as shown in FIG. 1) The valve opening pressure after the formation was measured, and the valve opening pressure was evaluated based on the following criteria. The results are summarized in Table 1.

<評価基準>
○:開口弁作製後とカーリング後との開弁圧(MPa)に差がほとんどない。
△:開口弁作製後とカーリング後との開弁圧に差が見られた。
×:カーリング後の開口弁が破損した。
<Evaluation criteria>
○: There is almost no difference in the valve opening pressure (MPa) between the production of the open valve and the curling.
(Triangle | delta): The difference was seen in the valve opening pressure after an opening valve preparation, and after curling.
X: The opening valve after curling was damaged.

Figure 2014005081
Figure 2014005081

表1からわかるように、実施例では、開口弁作製後とカーリング後との開弁圧に差がほとんどみられなかった。これに対し、比較例1では、開口弁作成後とカーリング後との開弁圧に差が見られたり、カーリング後の開口弁が破損したりするものがあった。また、比較例2では、カーリング後の開口弁は、すべて破損していた。   As can be seen from Table 1, in the examples, there was almost no difference in the valve opening pressure after the opening valve was produced and after the curling. On the other hand, in Comparative Example 1, there was a difference in the valve opening pressure after the opening valve was created and after the curling, or the opening valve after the curling was damaged. Moreover, in the comparative example 2, all the open valves after curling were damaged.

このように、薄肉部から容器に向かって傾斜し、容器の肉厚より薄い肉厚を有する傾斜部を備える開口弁は、カーリング後の開弁圧の低下を抑制することができた。したがって、蓋体と容体とをカーリング等のかしめにより形成される容器、例えば、電池、缶詰、飲料缶等に開口弁を形成しても、電池等の製造時において、開口弁の破損、開口弁の開弁圧の低下を抑制することが可能である。   As described above, the opening valve that includes the inclined portion that is inclined from the thin portion toward the container and has a thickness smaller than the thickness of the container can suppress a decrease in the valve opening pressure after curling. Therefore, even if the opening valve is formed in a container formed by caulking of the lid and the container, for example, a battery, a can, a beverage can, etc., the opening valve is damaged during the manufacture of the battery, etc. It is possible to suppress a decrease in the valve opening pressure.
