In the conventional method for forming an airtight storage battery terminal section, when the terminal pole pole and the inner circumferential surface of the cylindrical insulating material E are brazed, the pole pole receives high heat during brazing and is radially bent. Thermal expansion occurs. In particular, if the capacity of the storage battery is increased and the diameter of the pole pillar needs to be increased accordingly, increasing the diameter will reduce the radial expansion rate due to the high heat during brazing. It becomes larger, and its large expansion force presses the cylindrical insulating material E on its outer periphery, resulting in the inconvenience of causing cracks.

According to the present invention, the terminal pole pole, unlike the conventional solid pole pole, is a hollow cylindrical pole pole and is composed of a cylindrical wall. When brazing cylindrical insulating materials, the expansion in the radial direction due to the heat during brazing is extremely small, so the pressing force of the outer periphery against the cylindrical insulating material due to the expansion of the cylindrical wall is also small. Cracking of the cylindrical insulation material due to this is prevented. °Then, the columnar core member is loaded into the recessed hole inside the cylindrical body, and brazing is performed through the cylindrical gap left between the inner circumferential surface of the cylindrical wall and the core member. In this case, the thermal expansion of the core member is absorbed by the cylindrical gap, and little or no thermal expansion is transmitted to the cylindrical insulating member through the cylindrical wall, and a solid terminal is finally formed. At the same time, the storage battery terminal portion is configured to have good airtightness with the cylindrical insulating material on its outer periphery. Therefore, the diameter of the cylindrical wall is increased, which is advantageous for airtight formation of a large-diameter pole terminal suitable for a large-capacity storage battery.

In this case, by using copper, copper alloy, etc. as the core member, the electrical resistance can be extremely reduced and a terminal with good charging and discharging performance can be obtained, and as the diameter of the cylindrical wall increases, Accordingly, a terminal with improved conductivity and charge/discharge performance can be obtained.

Further, when the core member and the cylindrical wall of the terminal pole pole are brazed at a temperature lower than the temperature during brazing between the cylindrical wall of the terminal pole pole and the cylindrical insulating member. Further, the heat transmitted to the brazed joint between the cylindrical wall and the cylindrical insulating material can be reduced, and thermal deterioration of the quality of the brazed joint can be prevented.

All the brazing filler metals mentioned above may be used, for example, alkali-resistant Au-N
The inner and outer circumferential surfaces of the cylindrical insulating material 4 are pre-metalized with No-Hn, etc., and are further plated with Ni to improve the inner circumferential surface. Thus, it is possible to perform a good brazing connection with the outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical pole pole 1 and a good brazing connection with the cylindrical flange 5 on the outer circumferential surface. The brazing work is performed in a furnace at 950 to 970°C. When performing this furnace brazing work, the cylindrical pole post 1 thermally expands, but unlike conventional solid pole poles for terminals,
According to the present invention, since the inside is a cylindrical wall 1b having a columnar recessed hole 11 with an open top surface, the coefficient of thermal expansion in the radial direction is significantly smaller than that of a solid pole even if it receives the same high heat. Therefore, due to the expansion force, the pressing force applied from the inside to the outer periphery of the cylindrical insulating material 4 becomes extremely small, and damage such as cracks to the insulating material 4 is prevented. Therefore,
In order to obtain a large capacity battery, the cylindrical wall 1b of the cylindrical pole pole 1 is
Even if the diameter of the cylindrical pole pole 1 is increased, unlike a solid pole pole, its interior is hollow with a concave hole, so its low expansion rate does not increase, and therefore, the cylindrical insulating material 4 The pressing force from the inside can also be kept small, and the m-shaped insulating material 4 on the outer periphery is always
A good brazed hermetic connection is ensured without cracking.

According to the present invention, stable and robust brazing can be performed between the cylindrical pole column 1 and the cylindrical insulating material 4 on the outer periphery of the cylindrical pole column 1 in the cylindrical wall 1 having the columnar recessed hole 11 inside. , while the cylindrical pole pole 1 is still large, it is J1! Not suitable for pond terminals. According to the present invention, in order to achieve this object, in the next step, as shown in the second figure, the columnar recessed hole 11 of the cylindrical pole column 1 is
A metal columnar core member 12 having a diameter slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the cylindrical wall 1b is placed inside the cylindrical wall 1b, and a cylindrical gap for filling the brazing material is provided between the inner circumferential surface of the cylindrical wall 1b and the outer circumferential surface of the columnar core member 12. 11a, and fill the cylindrical gap 11a with the brazing filler metal 13 by heating and melting it in a furnace. By brazing 13 over substantially the entire height of the two members and bonding them together, a solid pole terminal 14 similar to the conventional one is obtained. The core member 12 thermally expands due to the heating and melting temperature of the brazing material, but since there is a cylindrical gap 11a for filling the brazing material on its outer periphery,
Since the expansion force is absorbed by this and hardly ever reaches the external cylindrical insulating material 4, no cracks occur in the cylindrical insulating material 4 during this brazing work, and the final result is The cylindrical wall 1a and the core member 12 filled inside are integrated, in other words, the solid pole terminal 14 has a larger diameter than the conventional one, and therefore is suitable for a terminal of a large capacity storage battery. 14 is obtained.

As the brazing material, if the columnar core member 12 is a metal with a relatively high melting point such as Kovar, the above-mentioned 8U-Ni brazing material with a relatively high melting point may be used. If the main alloy is a metal, a brazing material with a relatively low melting temperature, such as Ag-Ni brazing material, may be used.
The outer periphery of the columnar core member 12 is covered with a cylindrical wall 1b made of corrosion-resistant Kovar, and since there is no risk of contact with an alkaline electrolyte, copper-based metals with insufficient alkali resistance can be used. can be used. Thus, in particular, when copper or other copper-based metal is used as the columnar core member 12, the electrical resistance is low and it is particularly suitable as the terminal 15 of a large capacity battery.

Further, according to the present invention, the columnar core member 12 and the cylindrical wall 1b
When the temperature of the brazing 13 is lower than the temperature at which the cylindrical wall 1b and the cylindrical insulating material 4 on its outer periphery are brazed 8.8', the heat causes the cylindrical wall 1b and the annular Insulating material 4
For example, when using 8g-Cu as the brazing material and brazing 13 at a relatively low temperature of about 850'C, This is an economical and easy brazing operation that can be achieved at a significantly lower temperature than the high temperature of approximately 950 to 970'C used to braze the outer circumferential surface of the shaped wall 1b and the cylindrical insulating member 4 to the brazing joint 8. Therefore, a sealed terminal of a storage battery can be formed efficiently and economically.

An Au-Ni brazing material was interposed between the joined cylindrical ceramic insulating material and the material was brazed at a temperature of 950 to 970'C in a furnace, but cracks were observed in the insulating material. In the cylindrical concave hole inside the cylindrical wall of the cylindrical pole column, a Cu columnar core member with a diameter of 4.0 cm was placed on the outer periphery, and a distance of 0.75+nm between the cylindrical wall and the cylindrical wall. A cylindrical gap is left in the center of the inner surface of the bottom wall. In this state, after placing the 8 (1-Cu) brazing material on the top surface of the cylindrical gap, the temperature is lowered to the above temperature in a furnace. The brazing material is melted at a significantly low temperature of about 850° C. and filled into the cylindrical gap, and the columnar core member and the cylindrical wall are brazed, thereby forming a copper columnar core member and a Kovar tube. A battery lid was obtained which had a terminal made of a single piece, which was airtightly connected via electrical insulation.No cracks were observed in the nodular ceramic insulating material.

As described above, according to the present invention, the distance between the battery cover and the terminal pole post inserted into the terminal pole insertion hole made in this way,
Cylindrical! ! In order to seal the terminal airtightly through the organic insulating material and the brazed joint, the terminal pole is formed into a bottomed cylindrical pole with a columnar recessed hole inside, and the cylindrical wall and its outer periphery are Since the cylindrical inorganic insulating material is brazed, there is no possibility that the cylindrical pole column will expand due to the heat during brazing and the expansion force will cause cracks in the annular inorganic insulating material. The columnar core member is loaded into the columnar concave hole inside the cylindrical wall of the cylindrical pole column with a cylindrical gap for filling the brazing material between the cylindrical pole column and the cylindrical core member. By brazing each other with the brazing filler metal injected into the gap, a solid terminal similar to the conventional one in which the cylindrical wall and the columnar core member are integrated is constructed. A large-diameter terminal can be constructed smoothly without cracks that occur when a ceramic insulating material is brazed to a large-diameter pole pole, and therefore a large-diameter terminal suitable for large-capacity batteries By solving the conventional disadvantage that it was impossible to manufacture terminals, by increasing the diameter of the cylindrical wall as desired, or by using copper-based metal as the columnar core member, the electrical resistance can be improved. resulting in extremely good conductive terminals with significantly reduced
It can be obtained by improving the charging and discharging characteristics of batteries. In addition, in the manufacturing process, if the brazing temperature between the columnar core member and the cylindrical wall is lower than the brazing temperature between the cylindrical wall and the annular insulating material, the cylindrical wall and the cylindrical insulating material There is no adverse effect of heat on the brazed joint with the material, there is no cracking in the annular insulation material, and a strong brazed joint of good quality can be maintained, resulting in stable and airtightness. This has the advantage that it is possible to obtain a terminal portion with a
