It is connected to the collector plate 24 (see FIG. 2). Although the separators 33 and 35 are wider than the negative electrode mixture layer 32b in the width direction, they are wound at the positions where the metal foil surfaces at the ends are exposed at the positive metal foil exposed portion 34c and the negative metal foil exposed portion 32c. , It does not hinder the bundling and welding. Further, if necessary, it is possible to dispose a shaft core on the innermost periphery of the winding group 3. As the shaft core, for example, one formed by winding a resin sheet having higher bending rigidity than any of the positive electrode metal foil, the negative electrode metal foil, and the separators 33 and 35 can be used.

Then, the negative electrode metal foil exposed portion 32c, which is an uncoated portion to which the negative electrode mixture is not applied, is provided at the end portion on one side in the width direction of the negative electrode metal foil.

Then, through a drying process, a pressing process, and a cutting process, a negative electrode 32 having a thickness of 70 μm at the negative electrode active material coated portion containing no copper foil was obtained.

図６は、実施例１における正極電極の構成を説明する図であり、図６（ａ）は、正極電極の正面図、図６（ｂ）は、図６（ａ）のＡ−Ａ’線断面図である。   6A and 6B are diagrams illustrating the configuration of the positive electrode in Example 1, FIG. 6A is a front view of the positive electrode, and FIG. 6B is a line AA ′ in FIG. 6A. FIG.

正極電極３４は、正極集電体である正極金属箔の両面に正極活物質を含む正極合剤を塗布して形成された正極合剤層３４ｂが設けられている。そして、正極金属箔の幅方向一方側の端部には、正極合剤が塗布されていない未塗工部である正極金属箔露出部３４ｃが設けられている。すなわち、正極電極３４は、正極金属箔に塗工された正極合剤層３４ｂと、正極金属箔が露出する正極金属箔露出部３４ｃとを有している。正極金属箔露出部３４ｃは、正極合剤層３４ｂから正極金属箔が突出した領域であり、捲回群３では、捲回軸方向の一方側の位置に配置される。   The positive electrode 34 is provided with a positive electrode mixture layer 34b formed by applying a positive electrode mixture containing a positive electrode active material on both surfaces of a positive electrode metal foil which is a positive electrode current collector. Then, a positive electrode metal foil exposed portion 34c, which is an uncoated portion on which the positive electrode mixture is not applied, is provided at an end portion on one side in the width direction of the positive electrode metal foil. That is, the positive electrode 34 has a positive electrode mixture layer 34b coated on the positive metal foil and a positive metal foil exposed portion 34c where the positive metal foil is exposed. The positive electrode metal foil exposed portion 34c is a region where the positive electrode metal foil protrudes from the positive electrode mixture layer 34b, and is arranged at a position on one side in the winding axis direction in the winding group 3.

そして、正極電極３４は、本発明の特徴的な構成の一つとして、正極金属箔露出部３４ｃと反対側の端部に、セパレータ３３、３５に密着する樹脂層５０が設けられている。樹脂層５０は、正極合剤層３４ｂの端部に沿って一定幅で正極電極３４の長手方向に亘って延在するように正極金属箔上に設けられている。樹脂層５０は、捲回群３において正極電極３４の負極金属箔露出部３２ｃ側に配置されるように設けられており、正極金属箔露出部３４ｃのセパレータ３３、３５に対向する位置でかつ、間にセパレータ３３、３５を介して負極電極３２の負極合剤層３２ｂに対向する位置に配置される。樹脂層５０は、加熱前は接着性を有しておらず、一度加熱することによって接着性を発現する構成を有しており、本実施例では、加熱することによって接着性を発現する熱可塑性樹脂を含有する。樹脂層５０は、加熱することによって軟化し、軟化した状態で圧縮されることによりセパレータ３３、３５の表面の微小な凹凸に入り込み、アンカー効果によって接着固定される。   The positive electrode 34 is provided with a resin layer 50 that is in close contact with the separators 33 and 35 at the end opposite to the positive metal foil exposed portion 34c, which is one of the characteristic configurations of the present invention. The resin layer 50 is provided on the positive electrode metal foil so as to extend along the end of the positive electrode mixture layer 34b with a constant width in the longitudinal direction of the positive electrode 34. The resin layer 50 is provided so as to be arranged on the negative electrode metal foil exposed portion 32c side of the positive electrode 34 in the winding group 3, at a position facing the separators 33 and 35 of the positive electrode metal foil exposed portion 34c, and It is arranged at a position facing the negative electrode mixture layer 32b of the negative electrode 32 with the separators 33 and 35 interposed therebetween. The resin layer 50 does not have adhesiveness before heating, and has a configuration that develops adhesiveness by heating once, and in this embodiment, thermoplasticity that develops adhesiveness by heating. Contains a resin. The resin layer 50 is softened by heating and is compressed in the softened state to enter into minute irregularities on the surfaces of the separators 33 and 35, and is adhesively fixed by the anchor effect.

図７は、図６(ｂ）のＣ部拡大図である。
樹脂層５０と正極合剤層３４ｂは、導体である正極金属箔に設けられており、互いに接触している。本実施例では、正極合剤層３４ｂを先に塗工し、後で樹脂層５０を塗工しているので、樹脂層５０の端部が正極合剤層３４ｂの端部の上に重なっている。このように、正極合剤層３４ｂと樹脂層５０との間に重なり部分ｗがある場合に、かかる重なり部分ｗにおける正極合剤層３４ｂの厚みｔ２と樹脂層５０の厚みｔ３の和が正極合剤層３４ｂの中央部分の厚みである最大厚みｔ１以下になるように設定されている（ｔ１＞ｔ２＋ｔ３）。FIG. 7 is an enlarged view of part C of FIG. 6 (b).
The resin layer 50 and the positive electrode mixture layer 34b are provided on the positive electrode metal foil, which is a conductor, and are in contact with each other. In this embodiment, since the positive electrode mixture layer 34b is applied first and the resin layer 50 is applied later, the end of the resin layer 50 overlaps the end of the positive electrode mixture layer 34b. There is. Thus, when there is an overlapping portion w between the positive electrode mixture layer 34b and the resin layer 50, the sum of the thickness t2 of the positive electrode mixture layer 34b and the thickness t3 of the resin layer 50 at the overlapping portion w is the positive electrode mixture. It is set to be equal to or less than the maximum thickness t1 which is the thickness of the central portion of the agent layer 34b (t1> t2 + t3).

正極電極３４に関しては、正極活物質としてマンガン酸リチウム（化学式ＬｉＭｎ２Ｏ４）１００重量部に対し、導電材として１０重量部の鱗片状黒鉛と、結着剤として１０重量部のＰＶＤＦとを添加し、これに分散溶媒としてＮＭＰを添加、混練してスラリ状の正極合剤を作製した。このスラリ状の正極合剤を厚さ２０μｍのアルミニウム箔（正極金属箔）の両面に溶接部である正極金属箔露出部３４ｃ（正極未塗工部）を残して塗布した。その後、乾燥、プレス、裁断工程を経て、アルミニウム箔を含まない正極合剤層３４ｂの厚さ９０μｍの正極電極３４を得た。Regarding the positive electrode 34, 10 parts by weight of scaly graphite as a conductive material and 10 parts by weight of PVDF as a binder were added to 100 parts by weight of lithium manganate (chemical formula LiMn 2 O 4 ) as a positive electrode active material. Then, NMP was added to this as a dispersion solvent and kneaded to prepare a slurry-like positive electrode mixture. This slurry-like positive electrode mixture was applied on both sides of an aluminum foil (positive electrode metal foil) having a thickness of 20 μm, leaving the positive electrode metal foil exposed portion 34c (positive electrode uncoated portion) which is a welded portion. After that, through a drying process, a pressing process and a cutting process, a positive electrode 34 having a thickness of 90 μm of a positive electrode mixture layer 34b containing no aluminum foil was obtained.

樹脂層５０は、接着材を塗布して乾燥させることにより構成されている。本実施例では、正極合剤を先に塗布して所定時間乾燥させた後に接着材を塗布しているが、正極合剤と同時に接着材を塗布してもよい。樹脂層５０は、接着材を塗布して乾燥した後に冷間プレスされ、正極合剤層３４ｂと同じ厚さｔ１に調整される。   The resin layer 50 is formed by applying an adhesive and drying it. In this embodiment, the positive electrode mixture is first applied and dried for a predetermined time, and then the adhesive is applied, but the adhesive may be applied simultaneously with the positive electrode mixture. The resin layer 50 is coated with an adhesive, dried, and then cold pressed to have the same thickness t1 as the positive electrode mixture layer 34b.

樹脂層５０は、加熱することによって接着性を発現する熱可塑性樹脂を含有するので、熱可塑性樹脂の種類あるいは配合等によっては、プレスによる圧縮、特に過熱状態でのプレスにより、接着性が発現し、プレス機等に接着して生産性の低下を招くおそれがある。従って、樹脂層５０は、常温で乾燥してプレスすることが好ましい。   Since the resin layer 50 contains a thermoplastic resin that exhibits adhesiveness when heated, depending on the type or composition of the thermoplastic resin, the adhesiveness may be exhibited by compression by pressing, particularly pressing in the overheated state. However, it may adhere to a press machine or the like to cause a decrease in productivity. Therefore, the resin layer 50 is preferably dried and pressed at room temperature.

また、本実施例では、正極活物質にマンガン酸リチウムを用いる場合について例示したが、スピネル結晶構造を有する他のマンガン酸リチウムや一部を金属元素で置換又はドープしたリチウムマンガン複合酸化物や層状結晶構造を有すコバルト酸リチウムやチタン酸リチウムやこれらの一部を金属元素で置換またはドープしたリチウム-金属複合酸化物を用いるようにしてもよい。   In addition, in the present embodiment, the case where lithium manganate is used as the positive electrode active material is illustrated, but other lithium manganate having a spinel crystal structure or a lithium manganese composite oxide partially substituted or doped with a metal element or layered It is also possible to use lithium cobalt oxide or lithium titanate having a crystal structure, or a lithium-metal composite oxide in which a part of these is substituted or doped with a metal element.

また、本実施例では、正極合剤における結着剤としてＰＶＤＦを用いる場合について例示したが、ポリテトラフルオロエチレン（ＰＴＦＥ）、ポリエチレン、ポリスチレン、ポリブタジエン、ブチルゴム、ニトリルゴム、スチレンブタジエンゴム、多硫化ゴム、ニトロセルロース、シアノエチルセルロース、各種ラテックス、アクリロニトリル、フッ化ビニル、フッ化ビニリデン、フッ化プロピレン、フッ化クロロプレン、アクリル系樹脂などの重合体およびこれらの混合体などを用いることができる。   Further, in this embodiment, the case where PVDF is used as the binder in the positive electrode mixture has been illustrated, but polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), polyethylene, polystyrene, polybutadiene, butyl rubber, nitrile rubber, styrene butadiene rubber, polysulfide rubber. Polymers such as nitrocellulose, cyanoethyl cellulose, various latexes, acrylonitrile, vinyl fluoride, vinylidene fluoride, propylene fluoride, chloroprene fluoride, and acrylic resins, and mixtures thereof can be used.

次に、本実施例における樹脂層５０について説明する。樹脂層５０は、正極合剤における結着剤と同一のＰＶＤＦ（ポリフッ化ビニリデン）とした。しかしこれに限定されるわけではなく、熱可塑性樹脂を含有しても良い。例として、ポリプロピレン(PP）、低密度ポリエチレン（PE:軟化温度95℃）、ポリスチレン（PS:軟化温度100℃）、ポリエチレンテレフタレート（PET）、ポリ塩化ビニル（PVC：軟化温度85℃）、アクリル樹脂、メタクリル樹脂（軟化温度90〜105℃）などがあり、これらのうちの少なくとも１種類を含むものであればよい。樹脂層５０の軟化温度は、セパレータ３３、３５の溶融温度よりも低い温度に設定されている。   Next, the resin layer 50 in this embodiment will be described. The resin layer 50 was made of the same PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) as the binder in the positive electrode mixture. However, it is not limited to this, and may contain a thermoplastic resin. Examples include polypropylene (PP), low density polyethylene (PE: softening temperature 95 ° C), polystyrene (PS: softening temperature 100 ° C), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyvinyl chloride (PVC: softening temperature 85 ° C), acrylic resin , Methacrylic resin (softening temperature 90 to 105 ° C.), and the like, and any resin containing at least one of these may be used. The softening temperature of the resin layer 50 is set to a temperature lower than the melting temperature of the separators 33 and 35.

本実施例では、分散溶媒としてＮＭＰを添加したＰＶＤＦを目的の箇所に塗布後、室温で乾燥させて分散溶媒を蒸発させることで、樹脂層５０を形成した。   In this example, the resin layer 50 was formed by applying PVDF to which NMP was added as a dispersion solvent to a target location, followed by drying at room temperature to evaporate the dispersion solvent.

本実施例では、樹脂層５０の構成として、PVDFを含むNMP分散溶媒を用いたが、これに限定されるわけではなく、高温化で軟化した、上記樹脂材料を直接、正極金属箔露出部３４ｃに塗布し、冷却させて、樹脂層５０を得る方法もある。また粒子状の樹脂からなる分散溶媒を選択してもよい。粒子状の樹脂を用いると、プレスした際に厚みの調整が容易となり、樹脂層５０の厚みを正極合剤層３４ｂの厚みと同一に調整する際に、容易に調整することができる。しかし、粒子状の樹脂を用いた場合は粒子径や密度により、目的とする導電性異物の混入経路となるため、所望の効果が得られなくなる可能性があるので留意が必要である。   In this embodiment, the NMP dispersion solvent containing PVDF was used as the constitution of the resin layer 50, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the resin material softened at high temperature is directly applied to the positive electrode metal foil exposed portion 34c. There is also a method in which the resin layer 50 is obtained by applying the resin to the above and cooling it. Alternatively, a dispersion solvent composed of a particulate resin may be selected. When the particulate resin is used, the thickness can be easily adjusted when pressed, and can be easily adjusted when the thickness of the resin layer 50 is adjusted to be the same as the thickness of the positive electrode mixture layer 34b. However, it should be noted that when a particulate resin is used, the desired effect may not be obtained because it becomes a target mixing path for the conductive foreign matter depending on the particle size and density.

図８は、実施例における捲回群３の断面図、図９は、図８のＤ部拡大図である。
捲回群３は、正極合剤層３４ｂよりも負極合剤層３２ｂの方が捲回群３の捲回軸方向両側に突出している。そして、正極金属箔露出部３４ｃは、負極合剤層３２ｂよりも捲回軸方向外側に突出している。負極合剤層３２ｂの未塗工側端部３２ｅは、正極合剤層３４ｂの塗工側端部３４ｄよりも捲回軸方向外側の位置に配置されている。セパレータ３３、３５は、耐熱層３３ｂ、３５ｂが正極合剤層３４ｂに対向して正極合剤層３４ｂを間に挟み込むように、面の向きが合わせられている。FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view of the winding group 3 in the example, and FIG. 9 is an enlarged view of a D portion of FIG.
In the winding group 3, the negative electrode mixture layer 32b protrudes to both sides in the winding axis direction of the winding group 3 more than the positive electrode mixture layer 34b. Then, the positive electrode metal foil exposed portion 34c projects further outward than the negative electrode mixture layer 32b in the winding axis direction. The uncoated side end portion 32e of the negative electrode mixture layer 32b is arranged at a position outside the winding axial direction of the coated side end portion 34d of the positive electrode mixture layer 34b. The surfaces of the separators 33 and 35 are aligned so that the heat-resistant layers 33b and 35b face the positive electrode mixture layer 34b and sandwich the positive electrode mixture layer 34b therebetween.

樹脂層５０は、正極電極３４の正極金属箔露出部３４ｃの反対側の端部に設けられており、正極電極３４の負極金属箔露出部３２ｃ側に位置するように配置され、セパレータ３３、３５に対向する位置でかつ、間にセパレータ３３、３５を介して負極電極３２の負極合剤層３２ｂと対向する位置に配置されている。本実施例では、捲回群３内で樹脂層５０の端部が負極合剤層３２ｂの未塗工側端部３２ｅ（負極金属箔露出部３２ｃ側の負極合剤層３２ｂの端部）よりも捲回軸方向外側に突出しており、正極合剤層３４ｂの塗工側端部３４ｄから負極合剤層３２ｂの未塗工側端部３２ｅに対向する位置までの間に亘る塗工幅で配置されている。樹脂層５０の端部は、セパレータ３３、３５の端部よりも突出しない位置に設定されており、負極金属箔露出部３２ｃを扁平厚さ方向に束ねて負極集電板２４に接続する際に溶接性を損なわないようになっている。すなわち、樹脂層５０と接着されるセパレータ３３、３５の端部は、樹脂層５０の端部よりも突出している。   The resin layer 50 is provided at the end of the positive electrode 34 opposite to the positive metal foil exposed portion 34c, and is arranged so as to be located on the negative metal foil exposed portion 32c side of the positive electrode 34, and the separators 33, 35 are provided. And a position facing the negative electrode mixture layer 32b of the negative electrode 32 with the separators 33 and 35 interposed therebetween. In this embodiment, the end of the resin layer 50 in the winding group 3 is closer to the uncoated side end 32e of the negative electrode mixture layer 32b (the end of the negative electrode mixture layer 32b on the negative electrode metal foil exposed portion 32c side). Also protrudes outward in the winding axis direction, and has a coating width extending from the coated side end portion 34d of the positive electrode mixture layer 34b to a position facing the uncoated side end portion 32e of the negative electrode mixture layer 32b. It is arranged. The end portion of the resin layer 50 is set at a position where it does not protrude from the end portions of the separators 33 and 35, and when the negative electrode metal foil exposed portions 32c are bundled in the flat thickness direction and connected to the negative electrode current collector plate 24. It does not impair the weldability. That is, the ends of the separators 33 and 35 that are bonded to the resin layer 50 project more than the ends of the resin layer 50.

また、正極電極３４の樹脂層５０が配置されている側の端面には、正極金属箔の端面が露出している。正極金属箔（本実施例ではアルミニウム箔）は、正電位を帯びているので、金属由来の導電性異物（例えば負極金属箔露出部３２ｃを束ねて電極接合部を負極集電板２４の負極側接続端部２２に超音波溶接した際に発生する銅微粉など）が混入し、当該正極金属箔に接触した場合、同様に電気化学的溶解し、対向する負極側で溶析するデンドライト析出が発生するおそれがある。しかし、本実施例では、樹脂層５０の端部が負極合剤層３２ｂの未塗工側端部３２ｅよりも捲回軸方向外側に突出して配置されている。したがって、デンドライトが析出している負極の対向する位置には、樹脂層５０が配置されているため、微短絡に至ることは無い。   Further, the end surface of the positive electrode metal foil is exposed at the end surface of the positive electrode 34 on the side where the resin layer 50 is arranged. Since the positive electrode metal foil (aluminum foil in this embodiment) has a positive potential, the conductive foreign matter derived from the metal (for example, the negative electrode metal foil exposed portion 32c is bundled to form the electrode joint portion on the negative electrode side of the negative electrode current collector plate 24). When copper fine powder generated when ultrasonically welding is mixed in the connection end portion 22) and comes into contact with the positive electrode metal foil, electrochemical dissolution similarly occurs, and dendrite precipitation occurs which elutes on the opposite negative electrode side. May occur. However, in this embodiment, the end portion of the resin layer 50 is arranged so as to project outward in the winding axial direction from the uncoated end portion 32e of the negative electrode mixture layer 32b. Therefore, since the resin layer 50 is arranged at a position facing the negative electrode on which the dendrite is deposited, a minute short circuit does not occur.

次に、上記構成を有する捲回群の製造方法について説明する。
捲回群３の製造方法は、捲回工程Ｓ１と、接着工程Ｓ２とを含む。捲回工程Ｓ１では、上記構成を有する正極電極３４と負極電極３２を間にセパレータ３３、３５を挟んで扁平状に捲回して扁平状に捲回された捲回群３を形成する。Next, a method of manufacturing the winding group having the above structure will be described.
The method for manufacturing the winding group 3 includes a winding step S1 and an adhering step S2. In the winding step S1, the positive electrode 34 and the negative electrode 32 having the above configuration are wound in a flat shape with the separators 33 and 35 interposed therebetween to form a wound group 3 wound in a flat shape.

接着工程Ｓ２では、扁平状に捲回された捲回群３を、セパレータ３３、３５のシャットダウン温度以下でかつ、樹脂層５０の融点以上の温度で数秒間、扁平厚さ方向に加熱圧縮する。これにより、樹脂層５０に接着性を発現させ、樹脂層５０をセパレータ３３、３５の耐熱層３３ｂ、３５ｂに接着させる。したがって、樹脂層５０は、セパレータ３３、３５に圧着又は熱溶着され、正極電極３４とセパレータ３３、３５とが互いに一体化される。したがって、樹脂層５０をセパレータ３３、３５に密着させてシールすることができ、これらの間に導電性異物が侵入するのを防ぎ、導電性異物が正電位に接する確率を激減させることができる。   In the bonding step S2, the flat winding group 3 is heated and compressed in the flat thickness direction for several seconds at a temperature below the shutdown temperature of the separators 33 and 35 and above the melting point of the resin layer 50. As a result, the resin layer 50 exhibits adhesiveness, and the resin layer 50 is adhered to the heat resistant layers 33b and 35b of the separators 33 and 35. Therefore, the resin layer 50 is pressure-bonded or heat-welded to the separators 33 and 35, and the positive electrode 34 and the separators 33 and 35 are integrated with each other. Therefore, the resin layer 50 can be brought into close contact with the separators 33 and 35 for sealing, the conductive foreign matter can be prevented from entering between them, and the probability that the conductive foreign matter contacts the positive potential can be drastically reduced.

樹脂層５０は、間にセパレータ３３、３５を介して負極電極３２の負極合剤層３２ｂと対向する位置に配置されているので、加熱圧縮の際に扁平厚さ方向に圧力を加えることができ、セパレータ３３、３５に対して確実に押圧して接着（圧着）することができる。そして、樹脂層５０は、捲回群３の捲回方向に連続して設けられている。したがって、正極電極３４とセパレータ３３、３５とが離れることに起因する捲き弛みを抑制することができる。また、電解液の注液に関しても、電極活物質表面とセパレータとの間を接着していないので、十分な注液性/含浸性を確保できているので、ＤＣＲの上昇の懸念は無い。   Since the resin layer 50 is arranged at a position facing the negative electrode mixture layer 32b of the negative electrode 32 with the separators 33 and 35 interposed therebetween, pressure can be applied in the flat thickness direction during heat compression. , The separators 33 and 35 can be reliably pressed and bonded (pressed). The resin layer 50 is continuously provided in the winding direction of the winding group 3. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the winding looseness caused by the separation between the positive electrode 34 and the separators 33 and 35. Also, regarding the injection of the electrolytic solution, since the surface of the electrode active material and the separator are not adhered to each other, sufficient injection / impregnation properties can be secured, and there is no concern that DCR will increase.

本実施例によれば、捲回群３において樹脂層５０の端部の位置が負極合剤層３２ｂの未塗工側端部３２ｅの位置よりも、捲回軸方向外側に突出し厚さ方向に揃うように樹脂層５０の塗工幅が設定されているので、捲回群３を加熱圧縮した際に、樹脂層５０の少なくても一部分をその塗工幅全体に亘ってセパレータ３３、３５に押圧することができ、セパレータ３３、３５に確実に接着することができる。   According to the present embodiment, the position of the end of the resin layer 50 in the winding group 3 protrudes outward in the winding axial direction from the position of the uncoated side end 32e of the negative electrode mixture layer 32b and extends in the thickness direction. Since the coating widths of the resin layer 50 are set so as to be uniform, when the winding group 3 is heated and compressed, at least a part of the resin layer 50 is applied to the separators 33 and 35 over the entire coating width. It can be pressed and can be reliably bonded to the separators 33 and 35.

本実施例のようにセパレータ３３、３５が耐熱層３３ｂ、３５ｂを有する場合、正極合剤層３４ｂとの摩擦係数が小さいので、樹脂層５０がない場合には特に捲き弛みが発生しやすい。また、角形二次電池に用いられる捲回群３は、直線部分と円弧部分からなる扁平形状を有しており、円筒形二次電池に用いられる捲回群と比較して、捲き弛みが発生しやすく、直線部分に歪みが生じて隙間が生じやすい。この課題に対して、本発明では、正極金属箔露出部３４ｃと反対側の端部に樹脂層５０を設けて、セパレータ３３、３５を接着しているので、捲き弛みを抑制しかつ隙間の発生を防ぐことが出来る。   When the separators 33 and 35 have the heat-resistant layers 33b and 35b as in the present embodiment, the coefficient of friction with the positive electrode mixture layer 34b is small, and therefore winding slack is particularly likely to occur without the resin layer 50. Further, the winding group 3 used for the prismatic secondary battery has a flat shape composed of a straight line portion and an arc portion, and winding slack is generated as compared with the winding group used for the cylindrical secondary battery. Is likely to occur, and the linear portion is distorted and a gap is likely to be generated. To solve this problem, in the present invention, the resin layer 50 is provided at the end portion on the side opposite to the positive electrode metal foil exposed portion 34c and the separators 33 and 35 are adhered, so curling slack is suppressed and a gap is generated. Can be prevented.

なお、本実施例では、セパレータ３３、３５が耐熱層３３ｂ、３５ｂを有する場合について説明したが、本発明は、これに限定されるものではなく、セパレータが耐熱層を有していない構造にも適用できる。   In addition, in the present embodiment, the case where the separators 33 and 35 have the heat resistant layers 33b and 35b has been described, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the separator does not have a heat resistant layer. Applicable.

本実施例によれば、正極電極３４に配置された樹脂層５０は、正極電極３４の正極金属箔露出部３４ｃとは反対側となる負極金属箔露出部３２ｃ側に位置し、セパレータ３３、３５に密着してシールしている。したがって、導電性異物が負極金属箔露出部３２ｃ側から正極合剤層３４ｂ上に混入するのを防ぐことができる。一般的に導電性異物は金属異物であることが多く、金属異物が電池の正極電位に接すると電気化学的溶解し、対向する負極側で溶積する。これに起因してLiイオンが集中し、Liデンドライトが発生し、電池内部で微短絡に至る。   According to the present embodiment, the resin layer 50 arranged on the positive electrode 34 is located on the negative metal foil exposed portion 32c side opposite to the positive metal foil exposed portion 34c of the positive electrode 34, and the separators 33, 35 are provided. It adheres to and seals. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the conductive foreign matter from mixing on the positive electrode mixture layer 34b from the negative electrode metal foil exposed portion 32c side. In general, the conductive foreign matter is often a metallic foreign matter, and when the metallic foreign matter comes into contact with the positive electrode potential of the battery, it is electrochemically dissolved and is deposited on the opposite negative electrode side. Due to this, Li ions are concentrated, Li dendrite is generated, and a short circuit occurs inside the battery.

本実施例では、樹脂層５０がセパレータ３３、３５に密着してシールしているので、導電性異物が負極金属箔露出部３２ｃから正極合剤層３４ｂ上に混入し難い構造となっている。特に、樹脂層５０が正極電極３４の長さ方向に亘って連続して設けられているので、捲回群３の状態では捲回方向に連続して設けられ、正極電極の塗工側端部３４ｄを全周長に亘って密着してシールし、導電性異物の混入を防止することができる。したがって、導電性異物に起因するLiデンドライトの発生を抑制し、電池内部の微短絡を抑制できる信頼性の高い電池を生産することが出来る。   In this embodiment, since the resin layer 50 is in close contact with the separators 33 and 35 to seal the separators 33 and 35, conductive foreign matter is less likely to enter the positive electrode mixture layer 34b from the negative electrode metal foil exposed portion 32c. In particular, since the resin layer 50 is continuously provided in the lengthwise direction of the positive electrode 34, the resin layer 50 is continuously provided in the winding direction in the state of the winding group 3, and the end portion on the coating side of the positive electrode is provided. 34d can be tightly adhered and sealed over the entire circumference to prevent the mixture of conductive foreign matters. Therefore, it is possible to produce a highly reliable battery that can suppress the generation of Li dendrite due to the conductive foreign matter and can suppress a minute short circuit inside the battery.

また、本実施例では、樹脂層５０がセパレータ３３、３５に接着されているので、正極電極３４とセパレータ３３、３５が樹脂層５０を介して一体化されている。したがって、充放電を繰り返すことで電極の膨張収縮による、正極電極とセパレータとが離れることに起因する捲回群の捲き弛みが抑制される。これにより、捲回群３の巻き弛み部からの導電性異物の混入も防ぐことが出来る。したがって、寿命を通して、信頼性の高い電池を生産することができる。   Further, in this embodiment, since the resin layer 50 is adhered to the separators 33 and 35, the positive electrode 34 and the separators 33 and 35 are integrated via the resin layer 50. Therefore, the winding looseness of the winding group due to the separation between the positive electrode and the separator due to the expansion and contraction of the electrode due to repeated charging and discharging is suppressed. As a result, it is possible to prevent the conductive foreign matter from being mixed from the winding slack portion of the winding group 3. Therefore, it is possible to produce a highly reliable battery throughout its life.

［実施例２］
図１０は、実施例２における図９に対応する図である。[Example 2]
FIG. 10 is a diagram corresponding to FIG. 9 in the second embodiment.

樹脂層５０は、正極合剤層３４ｂに接触していなくてもよく、隙間３４ｅを有していてもよい。例えば図７に示すように、正極合剤層３４ｂと樹脂層５０との間に重なり部分ｗがある場合には、その重なり部分ｗの厚み（ｔ２＋ｔ３）を正極合剤層３４ｂの最大厚さｔ１以下に制御する必要がある。仮に、重なり部分ｗの厚みが正極合剤層３４ｂの最大厚みｔ１（図７を参照）よりも大きいと、捲回した際に重なり部分Ｗが突出して径方向に嵩高となり、正極金属箔の耐久性や捲回群３の缶挿入性に影響を与えるおそれがある。本実施例では正極合剤層３４ｂと樹脂層５０との間に隙間３４ｅを設けているので、重なり部分ｗの厚みを正極合剤層３４ｂの最大厚みｔ１以下に制御する必要がなく、正極電極３４の製造が容易となる。   The resin layer 50 may not be in contact with the positive electrode mixture layer 34b and may have a gap 34e. For example, as shown in FIG. 7, when there is an overlapping portion w between the positive electrode mixture layer 34b and the resin layer 50, the thickness (t2 + t3) of the overlapping portion w is defined as the maximum thickness t1 of the positive electrode mixture layer 34b. The following needs to be controlled. If the thickness of the overlapping portion w is larger than the maximum thickness t1 of the positive electrode mixture layer 34b (see FIG. 7), the overlapping portion W protrudes and becomes bulky in the radial direction when wound, and the durability of the positive electrode metal foil is increased. And the insertability of the winding group 3 may be affected. In this embodiment, since the gap 34e is provided between the positive electrode mixture layer 34b and the resin layer 50, it is not necessary to control the thickness of the overlapping portion w to be the maximum thickness t1 of the positive electrode mixture layer 34b or less, and the positive electrode The manufacture of 34 is facilitated.

正極電極３４は、さらなる異物混入によるデンドライト短絡を防ぐ方法として、樹脂層５０を、正極合剤層３４ｂの正極金属箔露出部３４ｃと反対側の位置、及び、正極合剤層３４ｂよりも正極金属箔露出部３４ｃ側の位置に配置する。すなわち、本実施例では、正極合剤層３４ｂの両端に樹脂層５０が配置される。正極金属箔露出部３４ｃに配置される樹脂層５０は、図１２に示すように巻回された状態においてセパレータ３３、３５に密着しており、正極金属箔露出部３４ｃ側から正極合剤層３４ｂ上への異物混入を防ぐことが出来る。本実施例によれば、正極合剤層３４ｂの両側に樹脂層５０を設けてシールしているので、外部からの異物混入を確実に防ぐことができる。なお、正極金属箔露出部３４ｃに配置される樹脂層５０は、図７に示すように、正極合剤層３４ｂに部分的に重なり合っても良く、また、図１０に示すように、隙間３４ｅを設けてもよい。   As a method of preventing a dendrite short circuit due to further inclusion of foreign matter, the positive electrode 34 includes a resin layer 50 at a position opposite to the positive metal foil exposed portion 34c of the positive electrode mixture layer 34b and a positive electrode metal layer more than the positive electrode mixture layer 34b. It is arranged at a position on the foil exposed portion 34c side. That is, in this embodiment, the resin layers 50 are arranged on both ends of the positive electrode mixture layer 34b. The resin layer 50 disposed on the positive electrode metal foil exposed portion 34c is in close contact with the separators 33 and 35 in the wound state as shown in FIG. 12, and the positive electrode metal foil exposed portion 34c side to the positive electrode mixture layer 34b. It is possible to prevent foreign matter from entering above. According to this embodiment, since the resin layers 50 are provided on both sides of the positive electrode mixture layer 34b for sealing, it is possible to reliably prevent foreign matter from entering from the outside. The resin layer 50 disposed in the positive electrode metal foil exposed portion 34c may partially overlap the positive electrode material mixture layer 34b as shown in FIG. 7, or as shown in FIG. It may be provided.

図１３は、実施例４における捲回群の構成を説明する図であり、図１３（ａ）は、捲回群の正面図、図１３（ｂ）は、図１３（ａ）の捲回群をＢ方向から矢視した負極金属箔露出部側の端面図である。[Example 4]
13: is a figure explaining the structure of the winding group in Example 4, FIG.13 (a) is a front view of a winding group, FIG.13 (b) is the winding group of FIG.13 (a). FIG. 4 is an end view of the negative electrode metal foil exposed portion side as viewed from the direction B in FIG.

上述の実施例１〜３では、樹脂層５０が正極電極の長さ方向に亘って連続して設けられている場合について説明した。かかる構成によれば、正極電極の塗工側端部３４ｄを全周長に亘ってシールし、異物の混入を防止することができる。   In the above-described Examples 1 to 3, the case where the resin layer 50 is continuously provided in the lengthwise direction of the positive electrode has been described. According to this structure, the coating-side end portion 34d of the positive electrode can be sealed over the entire circumferential length to prevent foreign matter from entering.

しかしながら、樹脂層５０を正極電極の長さ方向に全周長に亘って設ける構成の代わりに、必要充分な場所のみに部分的に設けてもよい。例えば、負極金属箔露出部３２ｃは、扁平厚さ方向に束ねられて負極集電板２４の負極側接続端部２２に超音波溶接されるが、銅微粉などの金属由来の導電性異物（金属異物）は、この超音波溶接の際に発生しやすく、負極金属箔露出部３２ｃのうち、負極集電板２４の負極側接続端部２２に溶接接合される部分である電極接合部から発生しやすい。   However, instead of the configuration in which the resin layer 50 is provided over the entire circumference in the lengthwise direction of the positive electrode, it may be provided partially only at necessary and sufficient locations. For example, the negative electrode metal foil exposed portion 32c is bundled in the flat thickness direction and ultrasonically welded to the negative electrode side connection end portion 22 of the negative electrode current collector plate 24. (Foreign matter) is liable to be generated during this ultrasonic welding, and is generated from the electrode joint portion, which is a portion of the negative electrode metal foil exposed portion 32c to be welded and joined to the negative electrode side connecting end portion 22 of the negative electrode current collector plate 24. Cheap.

したがって、例えば図１３に示すように、負極金属箔露出部３２ｃの電極接合部に対向する位置に、電極接合部の幅Ｗ１に亘るように樹脂層５０を設けてもよい。かかる構成により、溶接接合した際に発生する導電性異物が負極金属箔露出部３２ｃ側から正極合剤層３４ｂ上に混入し難い構造にできる。したがって、導電性異物が正電位に接する確率を激減させることができ、導電性異物に起因するLiデンドライトの発生を抑制し、電池内部の微短絡を抑制できる。また、例えば図１４に示すように、捲回群３の平面部の幅Ｗ２に亘るように樹脂層５０を設けてもよい。   Therefore, for example, as shown in FIG. 13, a resin layer 50 may be provided at a position facing the electrode joint portion of the negative electrode metal foil exposed portion 32c so as to extend over the width W1 of the electrode joint portion. With such a configuration, it is possible to form a structure in which the conductive foreign matter generated during welding and joining is less likely to mix into the positive electrode mixture layer 34b from the negative electrode metal foil exposed portion 32c side. Therefore, it is possible to drastically reduce the probability that the conductive foreign matter comes into contact with a positive potential, suppress the generation of Li dendrites due to the conductive foreign matter, and suppress a minute short circuit inside the battery. Further, for example, as shown in FIG. 14, the resin layer 50 may be provided so as to extend over the width W2 of the flat surface portion of the winding group 3.
