(b) Prior Art FIGS. 1 and 2 are a cross-sectional view and a vertical cross-sectional view of a power generation element of a conventional spiral battery. In these drawings, 1 is a positive electrode, 2 is a negative electrode, and 3 is a separator. Electrolyte is injected into the power generation element from the upper opening of the battery case after inserting the power generation element into the battery case. This is done using a liquid injection device. During this injection, the electrolytic solution infiltrates from the upper part to the lower part of the power generation element through displacement with the air in the battery outer can and familiarization with the electrodes and separator. Here, in the spiral power generation element, the tightening stress from the surrounding electrodes increases as it approaches its center (the beginning of winding), and the tightening stress decreases as it approaches its outer periphery. The liquid is difficult to infiltrate near the center of the power generating element where the clamping stress is high, and is likely to infiltrate near the outer periphery of the power generating element where the clamping stress is low. Therefore, after filling the battery, the electrolyte distribution was uneven, with less electrolyte in the center of the power generation element and more towards the outer periphery, which was detrimental to battery performance. .

(f) Embodiment An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the power generating element of the battery of the present invention, FIG. 4 is a longitudinal cross-sectional view of FIG. 3, and FIG. 5 is an explanatory diagram of the state when an electrolyte is injected into the power generating element of the battery of the present invention. In the drawing, the power generation element is formed by winding a positive electrode 1 and a negative electrode 2 with a separator 3 in between, and the protrusion 4 of the separator 3 has a width 1.1 times the width of the other part of the separator 3. The separator 3 protrudes from the other parts of the separator 3 by a little more than one circumference in the upper surface of the power generation element except for the center part and the outermost periphery. Using the power generation element of the battery of the present invention and the power generation element of a conventional battery that does not have a protrusion on the separator, the power generation element is inserted into the battery exterior can 5 and the same amount of electrolyte is injected, and then the power generation element is placed in the battery exterior. The electrode plate and separator were taken out from the can and divided into two parts, an inner circumferential part and an outer circumferential part, and the ratio of the electrolytic solution content was measured. In the case of the battery of the present invention, the electrolytic solution 6 is injected into the area surrounded by the protruding separator, as shown in FIG. 5, and when the liquid level drops, further injecting is carried out. On the other hand, in the case of conventional batteries, the electrolyte is injected little by little while checking that the electrolyte has permeated into the power generation element. As a result, the liquid content ratio between the inner and outer peripheries of the electrode plates and separators is 40:60 in conventional batteries, with a large amount of liquid in the outer periphery, whereas the battery of the present invention has a liquid content of 48:52. It was found that the inner and outer peripheries were almost uniform. The reason for this is that in the battery of the present invention, when the electrolyte is injected into the power generation element, the electrolyte is held in the area surrounded by the separator that can protrude without spreading over the top surface of the power generation element, so the electrolyte is difficult to infiltrate. This is thought to be because the electrolytic solution started to infiltrate from the inner periphery of the power generation element, and the electrolytic solution that had once infiltrated the inner periphery gradually spread to the outer periphery, where it is easy to infiltrate, and the amount of impregnated liquid became uniform.

Note that the separator that protrudes one step on the top surface of the power generation element has a narrow interval between the overlapping parts of the protrusions, so it is possible to hold the electrolyte in the area surrounded by the separator that can protrude as it is.
The effect is further enhanced by welding the overlapping portions of the separator protrusions indicated by arrows in FIG. 3. Also, the position of the protruding part of this separator is
It may be installed at any position on the top surface of the power generation element depending on the winding state of the power generation element and the difference in liquid content between the inner and outer circumferences of the power generation element.

(g) Effects of the Invention According to the manufacturing method of the present invention, the separator at any position other than the center and outermost portion of the top surface of the power generation element is separated from other parts within at least one circumference on the top surface of the power generation element. Make it more prominent,
By injecting the electrolyte into the part surrounded by the separator that protrudes from the other parts, it is possible to solve the problem of non-uniform distribution of the electrolyte within the power generation element during the manufacture of spiral-wound batteries, thereby improving battery performance. The industrial value of this is extremely large.
