Description

本発明は、シール材の取り付け位置を案内するシール材取付治具に関する。   The present invention relates to a sealing material mounting jig for guiding a mounting position of a sealing material.

電池セルに液体などの異物が付着すると、電池セルの故障の原因となる。電池セルに異物が付着することを抑止するために電池セルを収容する密閉ケースとしては、例えば、特許文献1に記載されている。   If foreign matter such as liquid adheres to the battery cell, it may cause a failure of the battery cell. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a hermetic case that houses a battery cell in order to prevent foreign matter from adhering to the battery cell.

特許文献1に記載された密閉ケースは、開口部を有する筐体と、筐体の開口部を閉塞する蓋体とを有している。筐体と蓋体との間には、シール材が設けられている。シール材は、筐体と蓋体に挟まれることで潰れて、筐体と蓋体との間の封止性を確保している。   The sealed case described in Patent Document 1 includes a housing having an opening and a lid that closes the opening of the housing. A sealing material is provided between the housing and the lid. The sealing material is crushed by being sandwiched between the casing and the lid, and the sealing property between the casing and the lid is ensured.

特開2011−194982号公報JP 2011-194982 A

ところで、密閉ケースにシール材を取り付けるときには、蓋体によって開口部を閉塞する前に筐体にシール材を取り付ける。その後、蓋体を筐体に取り付けることでシール材を蓋体によって潰すことで封止性が確保される。筐体にシール材を取り付ける際に、シール材を伸張させすぎたり、筐体とシール材との間に異物が侵入したりすると、筐体と蓋体との間の封止性が不足するおそれがある。   By the way, when attaching the sealing material to the sealed case, the sealing material is attached to the housing before the opening is closed by the lid. Then, sealing property is ensured by crushing a sealing material with a cover body by attaching a cover body to a housing | casing. When attaching the sealing material to the housing, if the sealing material is stretched too much or foreign matter enters between the housing and the sealing material, the sealing performance between the housing and the lid may be insufficient. There is.

本発明の目的は、筐体と蓋体との間の封止性が確保されるようにシール材を筐体に取り付けることができるシール材取付治具を提供することにある。   An object of the present invention is to provide a sealing material attaching jig capable of attaching a sealing material to a housing so as to ensure a sealing property between the housing and a lid.

上記課題を解決するシール材取付治具は、電池セルが収容されるとともに開口部を有する筐体と前記開口部を閉塞する蓋体との間を封止するシール材の取り付け位置を案内するシール材取付治具であって、前記筐体において、前記開口部を区画する壁部の前記蓋体と対向する端面に取り付けられるとともに前記開口部を囲む環状の第1枠部材と、前記第1枠部材に対して間隔を空けて前記端面に取り付けられるとともに前記第1枠部材を囲む環状の第2枠部材と、を備え、前記端面と前記第1枠部材及び前記第2枠部材との対向方向を高さ方向とすると、前記第1枠部材及び前記第2枠部材の少なくとも一方は、前記筐体と前記蓋体との間の封止性を確保するのに要する前記シール材の前記端面からの高さの下限を規定する第1確認面を有し、前記第1枠部材及び前記第2枠部材の少なくとも一方は、前記筐体と前記蓋体との間の封止性を確保するのに要する前記シール材の前記端面からの高さの上限を規定する第2確認面を有する。   A sealing material mounting jig that solves the above-described problem is a seal that guides the mounting position of a sealing material that seals between a housing that houses battery cells and has an opening and a lid that closes the opening. An annular first frame member that is attached to an end surface of the housing that faces the lid of the wall section that defines the opening and surrounds the opening, in the housing, and the first frame An annular second frame member that is attached to the end surface at a distance from the member and surrounds the first frame member, and the opposing direction of the end surface, the first frame member, and the second frame member Is the height direction, at least one of the first frame member and the second frame member is from the end surface of the sealing material required to ensure the sealing performance between the housing and the lid. Has a first confirmation surface that defines the lower limit of the height of At least one of the first frame member and the second frame member defines an upper limit of the height from the end surface of the sealing material required to ensure sealing between the housing and the lid. A second confirmation surface.

これによれば、筐体にシール材を取り付けるときには、第1枠部材と第2枠部材との間に、各枠部材に沿ってシール材を取り付ける。このとき、シール材を伸張させすぎて、筐体と蓋体との間の封止性を確保できなくなると、シール材の端面からの高さが第1確認面よりも低くなる。また、筐体とシール材との間に異物が侵入した場合には、シール材の端面からの高さが第2確認面よりも高くなる。このため、シール材の端面からの高さが、第1確認面よりも高く、かつ、第2確認面よりも低くなるように筐体の端面にシール材を取り付けることで、筐体と蓋体との間の封止性が確保されるようにシール材を筐体に取り付けることができる。   According to this, when attaching a sealing material to a housing | casing, a sealing material is attached along each frame member between a 1st frame member and a 2nd frame member. At this time, if the sealing material is stretched too much to ensure the sealing property between the housing and the lid, the height from the end surface of the sealing material becomes lower than the first confirmation surface. Further, when a foreign object enters between the housing and the sealing material, the height from the end face of the sealing material becomes higher than the second confirmation surface. For this reason, by attaching the sealing material to the end surface of the housing so that the height from the end surface of the sealing material is higher than the first confirmation surface and lower than the second confirmation surface, the housing and the lid The sealing material can be attached to the housing so as to ensure the sealing property between the two.

上記シール材取付治具について、前記第1枠部材及び前記第2枠部材の両方が前記第1確認面及び前記第2確認面を有することが好ましい。
これによれば、シール材を挟んで両側に第1確認面及び第2確認面が位置する。シール材が変形して、シール材の端面からの高さに高低差が生じた場合、端面からの高さが高い部分が第1枠部材又は第2枠部材に寄って位置する場合がある。この場合、シール材の端面からの高さが高い部分が寄って位置している方の枠部材に第1確認面及び第2確認面があるとシール材の端面からの高さと第1確認面及び第2確認面とを比較しやすい。第1枠部材及び第2枠部材の両方に第1確認面及び第2確認面を設けることで、シール材の端面からの高さが高い部分が第1枠部材及び第2枠部材のいずれに寄って位置していても、第1確認面及び第2確認面との比較を行いやすい。
About the said sealing material attachment jig | tool, it is preferable that both the said 1st frame member and the said 2nd frame member have a said 1st confirmation surface and a said 2nd confirmation surface.
According to this, the first confirmation surface and the second confirmation surface are located on both sides of the sealing material. When the sealing material is deformed and a height difference is generated in the height from the end surface of the sealing material, a portion having a high height from the end surface may be located near the first frame member or the second frame member. In this case, if there is a first confirmation surface and a second confirmation surface on the frame member on which the portion whose height from the end surface of the sealing material is higher is closer, the height from the end surface of the sealing material and the first confirmation surface And it is easy to compare with the second confirmation surface. By providing the first confirmation surface and the second confirmation surface on both the first frame member and the second frame member, the portion having a high height from the end surface of the sealing material is in either the first frame member or the second frame member. Even if they are close to each other, it is easy to compare the first confirmation surface and the second confirmation surface.

本発明によれば、筐体と蓋体との間の封止性が確保されるようにシール材を筐体に取り付けることができる。   According to the present invention, the sealing material can be attached to the casing so as to ensure the sealing performance between the casing and the lid.

以下、シール材取付治具の一実施形態について説明する。
図1に示すように、電池パック10は密閉ケース11を有している。密閉ケース11には、複数の電池セルBCが収容されている。
Hereinafter, an embodiment of the sealing material mounting jig will be described.
As shown in FIG. 1, the battery pack 10 has a sealed case 11. The sealed case 11 houses a plurality of battery cells BC.

図1及び図2に示すように、密閉ケース11は、開口部12を有する筐体13と、筐体13の開口部12を閉塞する平板状の蓋体20とを備えている。筐体13は、平板状の基部14と、基部14の周縁から立設した枠状の壁部15とを有している。開口部12は、壁部15に囲まれることで区画されている。   As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the sealed case 11 includes a housing 13 having an opening 12 and a flat lid 20 that closes the opening 12 of the housing 13. The housing 13 has a flat plate-like base portion 14 and a frame-like wall portion 15 erected from the periphery of the base portion 14. The opening 12 is partitioned by being surrounded by the wall 15.

壁部15には、蓋体20と対向する端面16に開口するとともに内周に雌ネジを有するネジ穴17が複数設けられている。また、ネジ穴17よりも内側、すなわち、開口部12側には、端面16に開口する挿入穴18が設けられている。   The wall portion 15 is provided with a plurality of screw holes 17 that open to the end surface 16 facing the lid body 20 and have internal threads on the inner periphery. An insertion hole 18 that opens to the end face 16 is provided on the inner side of the screw hole 17, that is, on the opening 12 side.

蓋体20には、厚み方向に貫通する貫通孔21が複数設けられている。この貫通孔21は、壁部15に設けられたネジ穴17と対応して設けられている。具体的にいえば、蓋体20によって開口部12を閉塞したときに、ネジ穴17と貫通孔21とが対向するように貫通孔21が設けられている。蓋体20は、貫通孔21を挿通したボルト22がネジ穴17に螺合されることで筐体13に固定されている。   The lid 20 is provided with a plurality of through-holes 21 penetrating in the thickness direction. The through hole 21 is provided in correspondence with the screw hole 17 provided in the wall portion 15. Specifically, the through hole 21 is provided so that the screw hole 17 and the through hole 21 face each other when the opening 12 is closed by the lid 20. The lid body 20 is fixed to the housing 13 by a bolt 22 inserted through the through hole 21 being screwed into the screw hole 17.

筐体13と蓋体20との間には、シール材23が設けられている。シール材23は、1つの長尺状の弾性部材を端面16の形状に合わせて折り曲げたものであり、開口部12を囲んでいる。弾性部材は、例えば、ゴムや、ゴムスポンジなどである。シール材23の始端と終端は重なり合って設けられている。本実施形態では、シール材23の一面が粘着面となっており、この粘着面によってシール材23を端面16に貼り付けている。シール材23は、ネジ穴17と挿入穴18との間に設けられている。シール材23は、蓋体20によって潰されることで、筐体13と蓋体20との間を封止している。   A sealing material 23 is provided between the housing 13 and the lid 20. The sealing material 23 is formed by bending one long elastic member in accordance with the shape of the end face 16 and surrounds the opening 12. The elastic member is, for example, rubber or rubber sponge. The start end and the end end of the sealing material 23 are provided so as to overlap each other. In this embodiment, one surface of the sealing material 23 is an adhesive surface, and the sealing material 23 is attached to the end surface 16 by this adhesive surface. The sealing material 23 is provided between the screw hole 17 and the insertion hole 18. The sealing material 23 is crushed by the lid 20 to seal between the housing 13 and the lid 20.

次に、筐体13にシール材23を取り付ける方法について作用とともに説明する。
図3に示すように、筐体13にシール材23を取り付けるときには、まず、筐体13にシール材取付治具30を配置する。シール材取付治具30は、第1枠部材としての内枠31と、第2枠部材としての外枠41とを備えている。内枠31と外枠41とは、ともに端面16の形状、すなわち、開口部12の形状に合わせて環状に構成されている。
Next, a method for attaching the sealing material 23 to the housing 13 will be described together with the operation.
As shown in FIG. 3, when the sealing material 23 is attached to the housing 13, first, the sealing material attaching jig 30 is disposed on the housing 13. The sealing material mounting jig 30 includes an inner frame 31 as a first frame member and an outer frame 41 as a second frame member. Both the inner frame 31 and the outer frame 41 are formed in an annular shape in accordance with the shape of the end face 16, that is, the shape of the opening 12.

図3及び図4に示すように、内枠31において、内枠31によって囲まれる開口を区画する面を内面32とし、内面32とは反対側の面を外面33とすると、内枠31は、内面32と外面33とを繋ぐ底面34からの高さが異なる第1内枠部35と、第2内枠部36とを有している。第1内枠部35は、第2内枠部36に比べて底面34からの高さが高い。第2内枠部36は、第1内枠部35の外周を囲んでいる。第1内枠部35には、複数の第1取付孔37が設けられている。第1取付孔37は、挿入穴18に対応して設けられている。具体的にいえば、内枠31を端面16に載置したときに、第1取付孔37と挿入穴18とが対向するように第1取付孔37が設けられている。   As shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, in the inner frame 31, when the surface defining the opening surrounded by the inner frame 31 is an inner surface 32 and the surface opposite to the inner surface 32 is an outer surface 33, the inner frame 31 is A first inner frame portion 35 and a second inner frame portion 36 having different heights from the bottom surface 34 connecting the inner surface 32 and the outer surface 33 are provided. The first inner frame portion 35 is higher in height from the bottom surface 34 than the second inner frame portion 36. The second inner frame portion 36 surrounds the outer periphery of the first inner frame portion 35. A plurality of first attachment holes 37 are provided in the first inner frame portion 35. The first mounting hole 37 is provided corresponding to the insertion hole 18. Specifically, the first mounting hole 37 is provided so that the first mounting hole 37 and the insertion hole 18 face each other when the inner frame 31 is placed on the end surface 16.

外枠41において、外枠41によって囲まれる開口を区画する面を内面42とし、内面42とは反対側の面を外面43とすると、外枠41は、内面42と外面43とを繋ぐ底面44からの高さが異なる第1外枠部45と、第2外枠部46とを有している。第1外枠部45は、第2外枠部46に比べて底面44からの高さが高い。第1外枠部45は、第2外枠部46の外周を囲んでいる。第1外枠部45には、複数の第2取付孔47が設けられている。第2取付孔47は、ネジ穴17に対応して設けられている。具体的にいえば、外枠41を端面16に載置したときに、第2取付孔47とネジ穴17とが対向するように第2取付孔47が設けられている。外枠41の第2外枠部46によって区画される開口は、内枠31の第2内枠部36の外周よりも大きく、外枠41の開口内に内枠31を収めることができる。   In the outer frame 41, when a surface defining an opening surrounded by the outer frame 41 is an inner surface 42 and a surface opposite to the inner surface 42 is an outer surface 43, the outer frame 41 is a bottom surface 44 that connects the inner surface 42 and the outer surface 43. The first outer frame portion 45 and the second outer frame portion 46 are different in height from the first outer frame portion. The first outer frame portion 45 is higher in height from the bottom surface 44 than the second outer frame portion 46. The first outer frame portion 45 surrounds the outer periphery of the second outer frame portion 46. A plurality of second attachment holes 47 are provided in the first outer frame portion 45. The second mounting hole 47 is provided corresponding to the screw hole 17. Specifically, the second mounting hole 47 is provided so that the second mounting hole 47 and the screw hole 17 face each other when the outer frame 41 is placed on the end surface 16. The opening defined by the second outer frame portion 46 of the outer frame 41 is larger than the outer periphery of the second inner frame portion 36 of the inner frame 31, and the inner frame 31 can be accommodated in the opening of the outer frame 41.

シール材23を筐体13に取り付けるときには、基部14が鉛直方向下方に位置し、開口部12が鉛直方向上方に開口するように筐体13が配置される。また、筐体13に設けられた一部のネジ穴17及び全ての挿入穴18には、円柱状のピン51が挿入される。   When the sealing material 23 is attached to the housing 13, the housing 13 is disposed so that the base portion 14 is positioned downward in the vertical direction and the opening portion 12 is open upward in the vertical direction. A cylindrical pin 51 is inserted into a part of the screw holes 17 and all the insertion holes 18 provided in the housing 13.

そして、内枠31と、外枠41とは端面16に取り付けられる。挿入穴18に挿入されたピン51は、内枠31の第1取付孔37に挿入される。また、ネジ穴17に挿入されたピン51は、外枠41の第2取付孔47に挿入される。これにより、内枠31及び外枠41は、ピン51によって位置決めされるとともに、鉛直方向上方とは異なる方向への移動が規制されている。   The inner frame 31 and the outer frame 41 are attached to the end surface 16. The pin 51 inserted into the insertion hole 18 is inserted into the first mounting hole 37 of the inner frame 31. Further, the pin 51 inserted into the screw hole 17 is inserted into the second mounting hole 47 of the outer frame 41. As a result, the inner frame 31 and the outer frame 41 are positioned by the pins 51, and movement in a direction different from the upper direction in the vertical direction is restricted.

外枠41は、内枠31に対して間隔を空けて設けられている。外枠41は、内枠31を囲んでおり、内枠31は、外枠41の開口内に設けられている。第2内枠部36と第2外枠部46とは、向かい合って設けられている。これにより、第2内枠部36と第2外枠部46との間には、溝52が区画されている。この溝52の幅、すなわち、第2内枠部36と第2外枠部46との対向面間の寸法は、シール材23が良品のとき、すなわち、筐体13と蓋体20との間の封止性を確保することができるときのシール材23の幅よりも若干大きな寸法に設定されている。換言すれば、第2内枠部36と第2外枠部46とは、端面16に位置決めされた状態で良品のシール材23をかたどった溝52が区画されるように構成されている。したがって、内枠31と外枠41との位置決めを行うピン51は、内枠31と外枠41が端面16に載置されたときに、シール材23が良品のときのシール材23の幅よりも若干大きな間隔で第2内枠部36と第2外枠部46が位置するように設けられているといえる。   The outer frame 41 is provided with a space from the inner frame 31. The outer frame 41 surrounds the inner frame 31, and the inner frame 31 is provided in the opening of the outer frame 41. The second inner frame portion 36 and the second outer frame portion 46 are provided to face each other. Thereby, a groove 52 is defined between the second inner frame portion 36 and the second outer frame portion 46. The width of the groove 52, that is, the dimension between the opposing surfaces of the second inner frame portion 36 and the second outer frame portion 46 is determined when the sealing material 23 is a non-defective product, that is, between the housing 13 and the lid 20. Is set to a dimension slightly larger than the width of the sealing material 23 when the sealing performance can be secured. In other words, the second inner frame portion 36 and the second outer frame portion 46 are configured such that a groove 52 shaped like a non-defective sealing material 23 is defined in a state where the second inner frame portion 36 and the second outer frame portion 46 are positioned on the end surface 16. Therefore, the pin 51 for positioning the inner frame 31 and the outer frame 41 is larger than the width of the sealing material 23 when the sealing material 23 is a good product when the inner frame 31 and the outer frame 41 are placed on the end surface 16. It can also be said that the second inner frame portion 36 and the second outer frame portion 46 are provided so as to be positioned at a slightly larger interval.

また、端面16と内枠31及び外枠41との対向方向を高さ方向とすると、第2内枠部36及び第2外枠部46の高さ方向の面のうち底面34,44とは反対側の第1確認面38,48は、筐体13と蓋体20との間の封止性を確保するのに要するシール材23の端面16からの高さの下限を規定している。内枠31の第1確認面38と外枠41の第1確認面48とは同一の高さに位置している。   Also, assuming that the facing direction of the end face 16 and the inner frame 31 and the outer frame 41 is the height direction, the bottom surfaces 34 and 44 of the surfaces in the height direction of the second inner frame portion 36 and the second outer frame portion 46 are: The first confirmation surfaces 38 and 48 on the opposite side define the lower limit of the height from the end surface 16 of the sealing material 23 required to ensure the sealing performance between the housing 13 and the lid 20. The first confirmation surface 38 of the inner frame 31 and the first confirmation surface 48 of the outer frame 41 are located at the same height.

第1内枠部35及び第1外枠部45の高さ方向の面のうち底面34,44とは反対側の第2確認面39,49は、筐体13と蓋体20との間の封止性を確保するのに要するシール材23の端面16からの高さの上限を規定している。内枠31の第2確認面39と外枠41の第2確認面49とは同一の高さに位置している。なお、端面16と内枠31の底面34、及び端面16と外枠41の底面44とはそれぞれ接触しているため、端面16と底面34,44とが同一の高さに位置しているとみなすと、端面16からのシール材23の高さは、底面34,44からのシール材23の高さと捉えることもできる。   Of the surfaces in the height direction of the first inner frame portion 35 and the first outer frame portion 45, the second confirmation surfaces 39, 49 on the opposite side of the bottom surfaces 34, 44 are between the housing 13 and the lid body 20. The upper limit of the height from the end surface 16 of the sealing material 23 required to ensure sealing performance is defined. The second confirmation surface 39 of the inner frame 31 and the second confirmation surface 49 of the outer frame 41 are located at the same height. In addition, since the end surface 16 and the bottom surface 34 of the inner frame 31 and the end surface 16 and the bottom surface 44 of the outer frame 41 are in contact with each other, the end surface 16 and the bottom surfaces 34 and 44 are positioned at the same height. When considered, the height of the sealing material 23 from the end face 16 can also be regarded as the height of the sealing material 23 from the bottom surfaces 34 and 44.

図5に示すように、内枠31及び外枠41を端面16に取り付けた後には、内枠31及び外枠41の間の溝52に沿ってシール材23を端面16に貼り付けていく。この際、シール材23の端面16からの高さを確認しながらシール材23を端面16に貼り付ける。シール材23の端面16からの高さを確認して、シール材23の端面16からの高さが第1確認面38,48の高さよりも高く、かつ、第2確認面39,49の高さよりも低ければ蓋体20によって開口部12を閉塞したときに筐体13と蓋体20との間の封止性が確保されていると判断することができる。シール材23の高さを確認するときには、シール材23の高さ方向の面のうち、端面16と接する面とは反対側の面24が第1確認面38,48と、第2確認面39,49との間に位置しているか否かを確認する。面24が第1確認面38,48と、第2確認面39,49との間に位置しているか否かは、面24の位置と第1確認面38,48及び第2確認面39,49との位置を視認や触れることによって比較することで判断することができる。   As shown in FIG. 5, after the inner frame 31 and the outer frame 41 are attached to the end surface 16, the sealing material 23 is attached to the end surface 16 along the groove 52 between the inner frame 31 and the outer frame 41. At this time, the sealing material 23 is affixed to the end surface 16 while confirming the height of the sealing material 23 from the end surface 16. The height from the end surface 16 of the sealing material 23 is confirmed, the height from the end surface 16 of the sealing material 23 is higher than the height of the first confirmation surfaces 38, 48, and the height of the second confirmation surfaces 39, 49. If lower than this, it can be determined that the sealing property between the housing 13 and the lid 20 is secured when the opening 12 is closed by the lid 20. When the height of the sealing material 23 is confirmed, the surface 24 on the opposite side of the surface in contact with the end surface 16 among the surfaces in the height direction of the sealing material 23 is the first confirmation surfaces 38 and 48 and the second confirmation surface 39. , 49 to check whether it is located. Whether or not the surface 24 is positioned between the first confirmation surfaces 38 and 48 and the second confirmation surfaces 39 and 49 depends on the position of the surface 24 and the first confirmation surfaces 38 and 48 and the second confirmation surfaces 39 and 49. It can be determined by comparing the position with 49 by visual recognition or touching.

図6に示すように、筐体13とシール材23との間に異物61が侵入している場合には、シール材23の高さが第2確認面39,49よりも高くなり、シール材23が第2確認面39,49から突出する。筐体13とシール材23との間に異物61が侵入している場合、筐体13とシール材23との間に隙間ができ、開口部12を蓋体20で閉塞したときに、筐体13と蓋体20との封止性が不足するおそれがある。シール材23が第2確認面39,49から突出している場合には、異物61を除去して、再度シール材23を貼り付ける。なお、シール材23の高さが第2確認面39,49を超えない程度の大きさの異物が端面16とシール材23との間に侵入した場合には、シール材取付治具30によって異物が侵入したことを検出することはできない。しかしながら、開口部12を蓋体20で閉塞した後には、密閉ケース11の密閉性を検査する検査が行われるため、異物によって筐体13と蓋体20との封止性が不足している場合には、この検査によって異物の侵入を検出することができる。   As shown in FIG. 6, when foreign matter 61 enters between the housing 13 and the sealing material 23, the height of the sealing material 23 is higher than the second confirmation surfaces 39 and 49, and the sealing material 23 protrudes from the second confirmation surfaces 39 and 49. When foreign matter 61 enters between the housing 13 and the sealing material 23, a gap is formed between the housing 13 and the sealing material 23, and the housing 12 is closed when the opening 12 is closed with the lid 20. There is a possibility that the sealing performance between the cover 13 and the lid 20 is insufficient. When the sealing material 23 protrudes from the second confirmation surfaces 39 and 49, the foreign matter 61 is removed and the sealing material 23 is pasted again. If a foreign material having a size that the height of the sealing material 23 does not exceed the second confirmation surfaces 39, 49 enters between the end surface 16 and the sealing material 23, the foreign material is removed by the sealing material mounting jig 30. Cannot be detected. However, after the opening 12 is closed with the lid 20, an inspection for inspecting the hermeticity of the hermetic case 11 is performed, and thus the sealing property between the housing 13 and the lid 20 is insufficient due to foreign matter. In this case, the entry of foreign matter can be detected by this inspection.

図7に示すように、シール材23を貼り付けるときにシール材23を伸張しすぎた場合には、シール材23の高さが第1確認面38,48の高さよりも低くなる。シール材23の端面16からの高さが第1確認面38,48よりも低いと、蓋体20によって開口部12を閉塞したときに、シール材23の潰れ量が少なく、封止性が不足するおそれがある。シール材23の端面16からの高さが第1確認面38,48よりも低い場合には、シール材23の端面16からの高さが第1確認面38,48よりも高く、かつ、第2確認面39,49よりも低くなるように再度シール材23を貼り付ける。   As shown in FIG. 7, when the sealing material 23 is extended too much when the sealing material 23 is applied, the height of the sealing material 23 becomes lower than the height of the first confirmation surfaces 38 and 48. If the height of the sealing material 23 from the end surface 16 is lower than the first confirmation surfaces 38 and 48, the crushing amount of the sealing material 23 is small when the opening 12 is closed by the lid 20, and the sealing performance is insufficient. There is a risk. When the height from the end surface 16 of the sealing material 23 is lower than the first confirmation surfaces 38, 48, the height from the end surface 16 of the sealing material 23 is higher than the first confirmation surfaces 38, 48, and 2 The sealing material 23 is pasted again so as to be lower than the confirmation surfaces 39 and 49.

筐体13にシール材23を貼り付けた後には、シール材取付治具30及びピン51を筐体13から取り外し、蓋体20によって開口部12を閉塞する。
したがって、上記実施形態によれば以下のような効果を得ることができる。
After the sealing material 23 is attached to the housing 13, the sealing material mounting jig 30 and the pin 51 are removed from the housing 13 and the opening 12 is closed by the lid 20.
Therefore, according to the above embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.

(1)端面16にシール材23を貼り付けるときに、端面16からのシール材23の高さが第1確認面38,48よりも低い場合、及び端面16からのシール材23の高さが第2確認面39,49よりも高い場合には、開口部12を蓋体20で閉塞したときに筐体13と蓋体20との間の封止性が不足すると判断することができる。したがって、シール材23の端面16からの高さが、第1確認面38,48と第2確認面39,49との間に位置するようにシール材23を取り付けることで、端面16と蓋体20との間の封止性が確保されるようにシール材23を筐体13に取り付けることができる。このため、電池セルBCが収容された密閉ケース11内に液体などの異物が侵入しにくく、電池セルBCの故障を抑制することができる。   (1) When the sealing material 23 is attached to the end surface 16, the height of the sealing material 23 from the end surface 16 is lower than the first confirmation surfaces 38 and 48, and the height of the sealing material 23 from the end surface 16 is When the height is higher than the second confirmation surfaces 39 and 49, it can be determined that the sealing property between the housing 13 and the lid 20 is insufficient when the opening 12 is closed with the lid 20. Therefore, by attaching the sealing material 23 so that the height of the sealing material 23 from the end surface 16 is located between the first confirmation surfaces 38 and 48 and the second confirmation surfaces 39 and 49, the end surface 16 and the lid body are attached. The sealing material 23 can be attached to the housing 13 so as to ensure the sealing property with the housing 20. For this reason, it is difficult for foreign matters such as liquid to enter the sealed case 11 in which the battery cell BC is accommodated, and the failure of the battery cell BC can be suppressed.

(2)また、端面16からのシール材23の高さによって、開口部12を蓋体20で閉塞したときに、筐体13と蓋体20との間の封止性が確保されているか否かを判断することができるため、容易に封止性が確保されているかを判断することができる。   (2) Whether the sealing property between the housing 13 and the lid 20 is secured when the opening 12 is closed by the lid 20 due to the height of the sealing material 23 from the end face 16. Therefore, it can be easily determined whether the sealing property is secured.

(3)内枠31及び外枠41の両方に第1確認面38,48及び第2確認面39,49を設けている。シール材23は変形するため、部位毎に高低差が生じる場合がある。このとき、端面16からの高さが高い部分が、内枠31又は外枠41のいずれかに寄って設けられている場合、端面16からの高さが高い部分が寄って設けられた内枠31又は外枠41に第1確認面38,48及び第2確認面39,49があるとシール材23の端面16からの高さと第1確認面38,48及び第2確認面39,49とを比較しやすい。内枠31及び外枠41の両方に第1確認面38,48及び第2確認面39,49があると、シール材23の端面16からの高さが高い部分が内枠31及び外枠41のいずれかに寄っていても第1確認面38,48及び第2確認面39,49との比較を行いやすい。   (3) The first confirmation surfaces 38 and 48 and the second confirmation surfaces 39 and 49 are provided on both the inner frame 31 and the outer frame 41. Since the sealing material 23 is deformed, there may be a difference in height for each part. At this time, when the portion having a high height from the end surface 16 is provided near either the inner frame 31 or the outer frame 41, the inner frame provided with a portion having a high height from the end surface 16 is provided. 31 or the outer frame 41 has the first confirmation surfaces 38, 48 and the second confirmation surfaces 39, 49, the height from the end face 16 of the seal material 23, the first confirmation surfaces 38, 48 and the second confirmation surfaces 39, 49, Easy to compare. When the first confirmation surfaces 38 and 48 and the second confirmation surfaces 39 and 49 are provided on both the inner frame 31 and the outer frame 41, the portions of the sealing material 23 having a high height from the end surface 16 are the inner frame 31 and the outer frame 41. It is easy to compare the first confirmation surfaces 38 and 48 and the second confirmation surfaces 39 and 49 even if they are either.

(4)ネジ穴17にピン51を挿入している。このため、蓋体20を筐体13に固定するためのボルト22が螺合されるネジ穴17をピン51の支持穴として兼用することができる。   (4) The pin 51 is inserted into the screw hole 17. For this reason, the screw hole 17 into which the bolt 22 for fixing the lid 20 to the housing 13 is screwed can also be used as a support hole for the pin 51.

Further, the outer frame may not have either the first confirmation surface or the second confirmation surface.

○図9に示すように、内枠81が第1確認面82を有し、外枠91が第2確認面92を有するようにしてもよい。すなわち、第1確認面及び第2確認面は、内枠及び外枠のいずれかに少なくとも一つ設けられていればよい。   As shown in FIG. 9, the inner frame 81 may have a first confirmation surface 82, and the outer frame 91 may have a second confirmation surface 92. That is, at least one of the first confirmation surface and the second confirmation surface may be provided on either the inner frame or the outer frame.

○筐体13に設けたネジ穴17及び挿入穴18にピン51を挿入し、このピン51によって内枠31及び外枠41の位置決め及び取り付けを行ったが、これに限られない。例えば、端面16から突出したボルトを蓋体20の貫通孔21に挿通させて、このボルトにナットを螺合することで蓋体20を筐体13に固定する場合には、ボルトを第1取付孔37及び第2取付孔47に挿入して、内枠31及び外枠41の位置決め及び取り付けを行ってもよい。また、内枠31と外枠41とを連結する連結具によって内枠31と外枠41とを連結した状態で端面16に内枠31と外枠41とを載置するとともに、内枠31及び外枠41と端面16とを係止する係止具などによって内枠31及び外枠41を端面16に取り付けてもよい。内枠31及び外枠41を取り付けた後には、連結具を内枠31及び外枠41から取り外し、シール材23を取り付ける。   O Although the pin 51 was inserted in the screw hole 17 and the insertion hole 18 which were provided in the housing | casing 13, and the inner frame 31 and the outer frame 41 were positioned and attached by this pin 51, it is not restricted to this. For example, when the bolt protruding from the end face 16 is inserted into the through-hole 21 of the lid 20 and a nut is screwed into the bolt to fix the lid 20 to the housing 13, the bolt is first attached. The inner frame 31 and the outer frame 41 may be positioned and attached by being inserted into the hole 37 and the second attachment hole 47. In addition, the inner frame 31 and the outer frame 41 are placed on the end surface 16 in a state where the inner frame 31 and the outer frame 41 are connected by a connector that connects the inner frame 31 and the outer frame 41. The inner frame 31 and the outer frame 41 may be attached to the end surface 16 by a locking tool for locking the outer frame 41 and the end surface 16. After the inner frame 31 and the outer frame 41 are attached, the connector is removed from the inner frame 31 and the outer frame 41, and the sealing material 23 is attached.
