Abstract

PURPOSE:To enhance the cyclic lifetime characteristics by accomplishing a uniform internal pressure in the battery jar of a Li battery. CONSTITUTION:Sheet-form pos. electrodes 1 including a substance to intercalate Li ions and sheet-from neg. electrodes 2 containing a substance to intercalate Li metal or Li ion are laminated alternately with separators 3 interposed, and thus a cluster of electrodes is formed. To this cluster a pressure of 1kg/cm or more is applied by a pressurizing member 5 in the direction perpendicular to the cluster, and thus a Li batter is accomplished.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In recent years, portable electronic devices and devices using batteries have become smaller and thinner, and batteries are required to be smaller, have larger capacity, and have a longer life. In particular, batteries using a light metal such as lithium as a negative electrode active material inherently have high energy density, so they can be made smaller than lead batteries or nickel-cadmium batteries. Furthermore, regarding the shape of the battery, a square shape has the advantage of a higher space ratio than a cylindrical shape.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, a sheet-shaped positive electrode containing a substance that intercalates lithium ions and a sheet-shaped negative electrode containing lithium metal or a substance that intercalates lithium ions are alternately arranged with a separator interposed therebetween. In a lithium battery consisting of an aggregate formed by overlapping the electrodes, the positive electrode and the negative electrode repeatedly expand and contract during charging and discharging, and there is a problem in that it is not possible to apply uniform pressure to the aggregate. In particular, prismatic batteries have a greater tendency for pressure to become uneven than cylindrical batteries. As a result, the cycle life of the battery is shortened.
