ため問題である。(B) Conventional technology Conventionally, when a unit battery or an assembled battery in which a plurality of batteries are connected in series is electrically connected to a battery-using device, etc.
As proposed in -150268 publication, the battery terminal formed with a flat plate-shaped terminal portion to which the external terminal of the device is electrically connected is connected and fixed to one pole of the battery by indirect spot welding or the like. , Solder the free end terminal portion of the lead wire, which is an external terminal of the device, to the flat plate-shaped terminal portion, or attach the end portion of the lead wire or the fitting terminal portion directly attached to the flat plate-shaped terminal portion to the device. A method of fitting and connecting is often used. However, when using soldering, it takes time to attach and detach the lead wire, and in order to directly spot or laser weld the battery terminal to the battery,
Since the thickness of the battery can, which is the welding base material, is 0.4 to 0.5 mm, the maximum thickness of the battery terminal is generally 0.5 mm, and the terminal part of the battery terminal is thin, so the mating terminal When fitting the parts, the fitting terminal part cannot strongly clamp the terminal part of the battery terminal, and the contact resistance becomes large especially when a clip-shaped fitting terminal part is used. Is.

る。As shown in FIG. 6, the battery terminal is composed of two members, a fixed portion (14) having a thickness of about 0.4 mm and a terminal portion (15) having a thickness larger than that of the fixed portion (14), and the direct spot welding ( 1
After integrating them by 6), as shown in Fig. 7, connect and fix the positive and negative poles of the assembled battery (11) consisting of multiple batteries connected in series by indirect spot welding (17). Although the material thickness (T) 'of the terminal portion (15) can be freely selected in this case according to the size and structure of the fitting terminal portion (12) on the device side, Since the battery terminal is a combination of two members, the manufacturing is complicated and the cost is high, and the material cost is required when the terminal portion (15) is made of nickel having low electric resistance in order to reduce the contact resistance. Is high, and when the terminal portion (15) is made of iron, the thickness of the plating is limited to about 4 to 10 μm.
There is a drawback that the mating durability is poor such that the mates are gradually scraped off during use and the mates are peeled off.

Since a metal having a small value is located and a metal having elasticity is laminated on the back surface of the battery, when the terminal portion is sandwiched between the fitting terminal portions which are external terminals of the device and electrically connected, The elastic force of the terminal portion of the battery terminal is applied to the contact portion between the terminal portion of the terminal and the external terminal of the device, and a strong contact is obtained, so that the contact resistance between them can be reduced. Further, since the battery terminal has a structure in which a metal having a low electric resistance value and a metal having elasticity are laminated, it is possible to reduce the material thickness, and the fixing portion of the battery terminal can be easily attached to one pole of the battery. It can be connected and fixed by spot welding.

に優れ嵌合耐久性が非常に良好である。FIGS. 4 and 5 showing the electrical connection by fitting between the fitting terminal portion (12) and the terminal portion (5) of the battery terminal (6) before and after fitting, respectively. Explain. A battery terminal (6) in which a fixing portion (4) is connected and fixed to a positive electrode (9) which is one pole of a battery (13) by welding has an elastic metal, that is, stainless steel (1) on the inner surface side. Since it has good elasticity and the fitting terminal portion (12) also has elasticity, when they are connected by fitting, the terminal portion (5) of the battery terminal (6) is The fitting terminal portion (12) is pressed inward by the pressing force applied thereto, while the fitting terminal portion (12) is pressed outward by the pressing force applied from the terminal portion (5) of the battery terminal (6). Spread to. That is, since the terminal portion (5) and the fitting terminal portion (12) of the battery terminal (6) apply mutually opposing elastic forces and are elastically contacted with each other, a stable contact pressure can be obtained. Further, the fitting terminal portion (1) of the battery terminal (6)
Since the nickel (2) having a small electric resistance value is located on the outer surface of the terminal portion (5) which is a contact portion with the terminal 2), the terminal portion (5) of the battery terminal (6) and the fitting terminal The contact resistance with the part (12) can be further reduced.

である。Next, when the terminal portion of the battery terminal is connected to the external terminal, the elasticity of the metal 1 in the terminal portion formed in the V-shaped cross section causes the metal 2 arranged on the outer surface side to come into pressure contact with the external terminal. Contact in the state of doing. Therefore, the contact pressure with the external terminal is stable and there is no fear of poor contact, and since the metal 2 has a smaller electric resistance value than the metal 1, the contact resistance can be suppressed to a low level, so that the nickel-cadmium battery can be suppressed. It is especially effective as a battery terminal that can draw a large current, such as.
