A lead terminal 10 derived from one electrode of the power generating element 5 is connected to a sealing plate 8 made of a thin metal plate provided in close contact with the lower side of the terminal plate.

封口する構造を採っている。Also, as shown in the example of FIG. 3 (B), a type in which a rivet-shaped metal terminal 12 is provided in a through hole 11a formed in a synthetic resin sealing body 11 having substantially the same diameter as the battery can opening is also known. I have. In this form, a washer 13 is inserted into the tip of the metal terminal 12 inserted into the through hole 11a on the inner side of the battery, and then the tip is crimped or crushed while compressing the terminal from above and below to expand the diameter. As a result, the washer 13 is fixed to this tip portion, and at the same time, the through-hole portion of the synthetic resin sealing body 11 is pressed against the head of the metal terminal 12 and the washer 13 to seal the through-hole 12a.

原因となる等の欠点がある。However, in the case where the insulating gasket is sandwiched between the battery can opening and the terminal plate as in the former type, the sealing structure is complicated, and the assembling time is correspondingly increased.
Specifically, the accuracy of the shape of the peripheral edge of the terminal plate is important. If this accuracy is poor, the gasket will break when the battery can opening is swaged, or the gasket will be tightened too tightly to seal the battery can opening. There are drawbacks such as causing troubles such as defects.

〈発明が解決しようとする課題〉 その点、後者の形式では、部品精度に起因するこの種

るという問題もある。However, in this type, it is necessary to compress the metal terminal at the time of assembling and to widen the tip thereof, so that there is a problem that management of the process at the time of assembling becomes complicated. In addition, since the washer is fixed only by the tip of the metal terminal, the tightening in the vertical direction is likely to be unsatisfactory, and the sealing property at this portion is not always sufficient, and there is a problem that this leads to liquid leakage.

〈課題を解決するための手段〉 以上の問題に鑑み、この発明に係る電池の製造方法

に圧入することを要旨とする。<Means for Solving the Problems> In view of the above problems, a method for manufacturing a battery according to the present invention provides a method for manufacturing a battery can, in which an opening of a battery can containing a power generation element is made of a synthetic resin having a through hole for terminal penetration. In a battery sealed with a sealing body, a surface of a metal terminal having an outer diameter larger than the inner diameter of the light transmission and having an annular groove on the outer periphery is subjected to a primer treatment, and the metal terminal is subjected to the ultrasonic vibration while applying ultrasonic vibration. The gist is to press fit into the hole.

本願で金属端子を合成樹脂製封口板に上記のように圧
入する際の超音波振動の周波数は高いほどこの圧入がう
まく行き、15〜40KHz程度が適当である。In the present application, the higher the frequency of the ultrasonic vibration when the metal terminal is press-fitted into the synthetic resin sealing plate as described above, the better this press-fitting is performed, and about 15 to 40 KHz is appropriate.

また、このように超音波圧入する場合、基材たる合成

とうまく行かず、その厚さが2mm以上のものを用いるの
が適当である。これ以下では圧入自体はうまくできても
圧入後の合成樹脂製封口体と金属製端子との密着性が悪
く、電池の封口性能上好ましくない。In addition, when the ultrasonic press-fitting is performed in this manner, the thickness of the synthetic resin sealing body as the base material is not particularly limited, but it does not work well if it is too thin, and it is appropriate to use one having a thickness of 2 mm or more. is there. Below this, although the press-fitting itself can be performed well, the adhesion between the synthetic resin sealing body and the metal terminal after the press-fitting is poor, which is not preferable in terms of battery sealing performance.

一方、金属製端子の材料としては、例えばリチウム電
池ではステンレスやチタン等の金属、またアルカリ電池

法が挙げられる。Further, as a specific example of the primer treatment, a material having good adhesion to the above-mentioned metal such as chlorinated polypropylene or the above-mentioned synthetic resin is applied to the outer periphery of a metal terminal or a through-hole of a sealing body, or the like. There is a method of intervening between them.

に隙間なく密着させて設けることができる。<Operation> When using a method of ultrasonically press-fitting a terminal into a sealing body through-hole as in the present application, the terminal is pressed into the through-hole simultaneously with melting of the synthetic resin around the through-hole forming the sealing body. The resin can enter the groove on the outer surface of the terminal well, and as a result, the terminal can be provided in close contact with the through hole without any gap.

このため、本願の方法を採ることで、部品精度に起因

ことができる。For this reason, by employing the method of the present application, a battery having a high sealing property can be easily manufactured by a simple operation without causing troubles due to component accuracy and complicated process management.

〈実施例〉 以下にこの発明の実施例を説明する。<Example> An example of the present invention will be described below.

A large number of independent annular grooves 2b are formed substantially parallel to each other at appropriate intervals on the outer periphery of the lower part of the head. A spiral groove may be formed instead of such a groove 2b, but an independent annular groove is preferred. This is because in the case of a spiral groove, the degree of leakage of the electrolytic solution inside the battery tends to increase when the completed battery is stored at a high temperature or the like. Further, each of these grooves 2 is formed in such a shape that the terminal outer peripheral surface between the adjacent grooves is gradually tapered.

またこの透孔1aの金属製端子圧入前の内径Ｄは、金属

The metal terminal 2 is positioned on the through hole 1a with the head 2a facing the opposite side, and the ultrasonic horn 3 is positioned on the head side of the metal terminal 2, and in this state, the ultrasonic horn 3 The metal terminal 2 is press-fitted into the through-hole 1a while applying ultrasonic vibration of 20 KHz to the metal terminal 2 so that the synthetic resin sealing body 1 and the metal terminal 2 as shown in FIG.

A lead terminal 6 derived from one of the electrodes constituting the power generating element 5 is electrically connected to an end of the metal terminal 2 protruding from the central lower surface of the integrated body, and then the opening is squeezed or caulked. Thus, a CR2 / 36 type battery (battery) was manufactured. In this battery, a non-aqueous electrolyte using a mixed solvent of propylene carbonate and dimethoxyethane as an electrolyte solvent was used.
