2. Description of the Related Art Generally, in a sealed alkaline storage battery, if the internal pressure of the battery rises abnormally due to the gas generated by the battery reaction, there is a risk that the battery may break due to rupture of the battery case or popping of the sealing lid. Therefore, there is a need for a so-called explosion-proof safety mechanism that allows the generated gas to escape to the outside of the battery when the internal pressure reaches a certain level to prevent the above destruction.
