Abstract

PURPOSE:To make it possible to absorb plenty of electrolyte or water evenly for a short time by forming a deep longitudinal hole of a small bore equal to or smaller than the outer diameter of a carbon rod along the center line of a positive electrode black mix, and pouring the electrolyte or the water on the positive electrode black mix. CONSTITUTION:In the process of processing a positive electrode black mix 1 in a negative electrode zinc can 3, a deep longitudinal hole 4 is formed along the center line of the positive electrode black mix 1. The bore of the hole 4 is made equal to or a little smaller than the outer diameter of a carbon rod 6, and the depth is made to reach almost the lower end of the positive electrode black mix 1. Then an electrolyte 5 is poured on the positive electrode black mix 1 in the negative electrode zinc can 3. As a result, the liquid 5 fills the longitudinal hole 4 of the positive electrode black mix 1, it is accumulated on the upper surface of the black mix 1 at the same time, and absorbed to the black mix 1 after a little while. In such a way, the absorbing speed is increased by the longitudinal hole 4. And since the hole 4 is formed deep in the black mix 1, the liquid is absorbed evenly to the whole black mix 1.

(2) After the step (2) above, pour the electrolytic solution or water onto the positive electrode mixture and wait for this liquid to be absorbed by the positive electrode mixture. In addition, injecting water instead of electrolyte is
This is a method in which a concentrated electrolyte is included in the positive electrode mixture before the molding process.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) The positive electrode mixture pressurized inside the negative electrode zinc can has a very high density, and an electrolyte (sometimes water may be used, but in the following, it is injected on top of this) It takes a very long time to absorb and impregnate the positive electrode mixture uniformly from the top to the bottom of the positive electrode mixture. Although it is possible to incorporate a large amount of electrolyte into the positive electrode mixture by injecting the solution in several batches over a sufficient period of time, this was not possible within the limited process time, and it was not possible to actually commercialize the product. The electrolyte content of such batteries is not very large, and the concentration distribution of the electrolyte in the positive electrode mixture is difficult to achieve.

As is well known, if the amount of electrolyte contained in the battery is not sufficient, high load discharge performance will deteriorate. In addition, at the end of discharge or after long-term storage, the liquid content in the positive electrode mixture decreases, causing the mixture to shrink, and as a result, the contact area between the mixture and the carbon rod becomes loose (poor contact properties), and then discharge characteristics deteriorate significantly.

In the past, there has also been known a manufacturing method in which the positioning six when driving the carbon rod in the above-mentioned step (1) is formed shallowly. In this case as well, the same problem as above occurs because the carbon rod is inserted into the positive electrode mixture before the liquid is injected.

This invention was made in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, and its purpose is to make it possible to uniformly absorb a large amount of electrolyte or water into the positive electrode mixture in a short time during the injection process. The aim is to adapt the manufacturing method of dry cell batteries.

(Means for solving the problem) Therefore, in this invention, in the step of pressurizing the positive electrode mixture loaded in the negative electrode zinc can, the inner diameter of the carbon rod is equal to or smaller than the outer diameter of the carbon rod along the center line of this positive electrode mixture. A deep vertical hole is formed in advance, and then an electrolytic solution or water is poured onto the positive electrode mixture, and this liquid is absorbed into the positive electrode mixture through the vertical hole. After this liquid injection step, a carbon rod as a positive electrode current collector is press-fitted into the vertical hole.

(Function) In the manufacturing method of the present invention, the injected electrolytic solution or water first fills the deep vertical hole formed along the center line of the positive electrode mixture and accumulates on the upper surface of the positive electrode mixture. From this state, the liquid is gradually absorbed into the positive electrode mixture, and since the liquid is absorbed from the vertical hole to the surrounding area, a large amount of liquid is uniformly absorbed into the positive electrode mixture in a short period of time.

According to this method, in the liquid injection process, the vertical hole 4 increases the contact area between the electrolytic solution 5 and the positive electrode mixture 1, increasing the absorption speed of the liquid. Since the positive electrode mixture 1 is deeply formed in the center from top to bottom, the electrolytic solution 5 is uniformly absorbed throughout the positive electrode mixture 1. As a result, more electrolyte can be absorbed into the positive electrode mixture in a shorter time than conventionally.

The discharge time in continuous discharge was investigated. As a result, the discharge time of the battery produced by the method of the present invention was improved by about 10% compared to the battery produced by the conventional method. This is because the present invention allows more electrolyte to be absorbed into the positive electrode mixture than the conventional method.
