Abstract

PURPOSE:To enhance the reliability and producibility by filling a base board with spherical active substance of Ni hydoxide, moistening and swelling those portion of active substance which is situated at the facial part of electrode plate with liquid, removing the moistened/swollen active substance at the facial part, punching off a terminal mounting hole, caulking a terminal in this mounting hole, and performing connection by ultrasonic welding. CONSTITUTION:A Ni terminal 1, active substance removing part 2, active substance filling part 3, a caulking part 4 are provided with an ultrasonic welding part 5. Filling with paste-form Ni active substance is made using a Ni fiber base board sintered with Ni fibers. After drying, this filled electrode plate, is subjected to a press shaping process to yield a Ni electrode plate, and water is poured as a shower, onto that part of this electrode plate which is designed for formation of a terminal. This part will thus swell, and the swollen active substance is removed by brushing. At this time, only the active substance situated at the facial part of the base board is removed, and the active substance situated inside is left as it is. A terminal mounting hole is punched off in this part of removal. A terminal formed from a Ni plate is caulked in this hole, and connection is generated by ultrasonic welding while pressurization is made by an ultrasonic horn.

There is a method of welding the lead terminals to the board in advance and then filling it with nickel hydroxide active material paste, or pressing the board to make it denser so that the active material paste does not fill the welded part of the lead terminals, or masking tape. There is a method in which lead terminals are welded to the high-density area or the area from which the masking tape has been removed, after coating with active material paste and filling the active material paste.

しかし、予め溶接されたリード端子やマスキングテープ
が活物質ペーストの充填時の妨げとなり、工程が複雑化
され連続生産ができず生産性が悪い。
However, the pre-welded lead terminals and masking tape interfere with the filling of the active material paste, complicating the process, making continuous production impossible, and resulting in poor productivity.

Furthermore, since the lead terminal positions are determined in advance, there is a problem in that only electrode plates of a determined size can be manufactured.

Alternatively, after filling the active material paste into the substrate,
There is a method of removing the filling active material in the terminal welding part and welding the REET terminal.

However, in this method, since the electrode terminals of the electrode plate and the substrate are directly welded, no insulating material such as active material should be present in the welded portion. However, it is impossible to reliably expose the metal surface of the substrate. It is extremely difficult to completely remove the active material once filled into the electrode plate.
If active material particles are present, sparks will occur during spont welding, resulting in poor welding.

Another method is to connect the lead terminal to the electrode plate by caulking. However, in batteries that use paste-type nickel plates connected by caulking, an insulating nickel oxide film is formed on the surface of the nickel plate substrate and lead terminals during the charge/discharge cycle, increasing the internal resistance of the battery. The drawback is that eventually charging and discharging becomes impossible.
