Abstract

PURPOSE:To make a diametral dimension smaller and further airtightness higher so as not to produce a leak of liquid by a method wherein a case manufactured by seam welding is used. CONSTITUTION:One polarizing electrode 14 is mounted through a conductive adhesive material 13 on the bottom of a first case member 11a. An electric insulating layer 17 is provided on the side of a second case member 11b in order to electrically insulate the case member 11b and a collector 16. When assembling an electric double-layer capacitor 10, predetermined electrolyte is impregnated to each the polarizing electrodes 14 and 15, and a separator 18 is arranged between the electrodes. Next, end surfaces of the first and second case members 11a and 11b are abutted against each other, and a junction part 19 thereof is performed seam welding by a laser, preferably a YAG laser. Thus, a coin-form capacitor can be obtained in such a condition that the side of the case 11 is a minus electrode and that of a lead terminal 16a is a plus electrode.

Although coin- or button-shaped capacitor cells are formed as described above, they have several drawbacks. That is, since the case body 2 and the cap 3 are joined by caulking, a flange portion (caulking margin) 9 is formed on the periphery of the flange portion (caulking margin) that does not contribute electrically in any way, and the diameter of the flange portion (caulking margin) is inevitably increased. I don't get it. Further, although a gasket 8 is interposed at the joint, its reliability is poor, and problems such as airtightness and liquid leakage arise.
