When metals such as iron, nickel, and copper are used for the metal parts that are in contact with, for example, the positive electrode current collector, lead plate, sealing plate, and other parts, these metals are dissolved by a kind of electrochemical reaction with the positive electrode. However, battery performance often deteriorates significantly.

Then, the rivet leg portion 4b protruding to the outside of the battery is fitted with an upper washer 6 which is excellent in workability and can be welded and has a high strength, for example, nickel-plated iron, and the leg portion 4b is caulked and deformed to form the upper washer 6. It is integrated with the sealing plate 1. Further, a cap 7 which also functions as a positive electrode terminal of nickel-plated iron is spot-welded to the upper washer 6 so as to surround the rivet leg portion 4b which has been caulked and deformed to form an assembled sealing plate.

う問題が生じる。When the opening portion of the battery case 8 is sealed using the assembly sealing plate having such a structure as shown in FIG. 5, the lower washer made of titanium is connected to the positive electrode lead plate 9. The surface 5 of the aluminum rivet 4 is brought into surface contact with the head 4a of the aluminum rivet 4 by caulking and deforming pressure to ensure electrical conduction. However, when a thin oxide film has already been formed on the aluminum rivet head 4a at the time of use, or when the battery is used in a cold atmosphere, the sealing plate 1 made of a thermoplastic resin shrinks in the diameter and thickness directions. Then, the contact between the rivet head 4a and the lower washer 5 is loosened, and the internal resistance of the battery is increased, so that the battery output cannot be taken out sufficiently. In order to solve this drawback
According to Japanese Patent No. 177, the base of the shaft of the aluminum rivet 4 is made larger than the other, and the large diameter is pressed into the titanium lower washer 5 to remove the oxide film on the surface of the aluminum rivet. A method has been devised to ensure the electrical continuity between the two without being affected by the contraction of the sealing plate during cold weather. However, this method is effective in ensuring the electrical connection between the rivet 4 and the lower washer 5, but cannot be expected to be effective in the electrical connection between the rivet 4 and the upper washer 6. That is, the electrical connection between the rivet 4 and the upper washer 6 is also secured by the caulking deformation pressure of the leg portion 4b of the aluminum rivet 4, so that the aluminum can be used while the battery is used for a long time in a severe natural environment. When a thin oxide film is formed on the surface of the rivet leg 4b made of aluminum, or when the battery is used in a cold atmosphere, the rivet 4 made of aluminum and the lower washer 5 are used.
Similar to the above case, a phenomenon such as loose contact between the rivet leg portion 4b and the upper washer 6 occurs, which causes a problem that the internal resistance of the battery becomes high and the battery output cannot be sufficiently taken out.

By using the assembled sealing plate provided together, a battery having stable internal resistance, excellent leakage resistance and safety, and long-term reliability is supplied.

The lower shaft is press-fitted to the outside of the battery, and the electrolyte resistant connection plate for connecting the lead plate is welded to the lower end of the lower shaft of the T-shaped rivet to simultaneously establish electrical conduction and fix the positive terminal. The gasket and the connecting plate are used to secure the size, and the assembled sealing plate is deformed outward when the pressure inside the battery rises, and the sealing part is easily loosened.

破壊を未然に防止する防爆作用を備えている。According to this structure, the positive electrode terminal made of an organic electrolyte resistant metal rivet press-fitted into the through hole in the central portion of the sealing plate is directly welded to the connecting plate for connecting the lead plate. It is connected and fixed, and electrical conduction and fixing to the sealing plate are performed at the same time. As a result, unlike the conventional method of crimping and fixing the rivet and at the same time ensuring electrical continuity, it will not be affected by loosening of the rivet caulking or oxide film on the rivet surface in a cold atmosphere or long-term use. It is possible to obtain a highly reliable battery with stable internal resistance for a long period without increasing the resistance of the terminal portion.
Further, the number of parts of the assembled sealing plate is reduced from 5 to 3 as compared with the conventional example, and the work process is simplified and the workability is improved because the rivet caulking process is unnecessary. Furthermore, since the heat-treated gasket is used, there are no molding flaws, and even if the battery is stored there is no dimensional change in the gasket. Since the assembly sealing plate is used, the gas inside the battery is released to the outside when the sealing portion is loosened, and thus the battery has an explosion-proof action to prevent the battery from being destroyed.

を小さくしたものも使用することができる。Next, the assembled sealing plate will be described in detail. FIG. 1 is a sectional view of the assembled sealing plate of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an exploded view thereof. Reference numeral 1 denotes a disc-like member having a hole portion at the center, and 13
Sealing plate made of polypropylene resin heat-treated at 0 ° C (outer diameter 15.5 mm, thickness 2 mm), 2 is stainless steel (SU
S444) T-shaped positive electrode terminal, which comprises a cylindrical head portion 2a having a diameter larger than the diameter of the opening of the sealing plate and a cylindrical lower shaft portion 2b having a diameter smaller than the head portion 2a. The lower shaft portion 2b is press-fitted into the opening portion in the central portion of the sealing plate so as to be on the outside of the battery. 3 is a disc-shaped titanium connecting plate (outer diameter 10 m
m, thickness 0.3 mm), and the bottom surface of the positive electrode terminal 2 is fixed to the center thereof by spot welding. The outer diameter of the lower shaft portion 2b of the positive electrode terminal is less than that of the inner diameter of the opening portion of the sealing plate 1.
It is made larger from 05mm to 0.5mm. The reason for this is that the optimum conditions will vary somewhat depending on the material of the sealing plate used, but if the dimensional difference is less than 0.05 mm, the sealing plate 1 and the positive electrode terminal 2 will not fit easily and liquid leakage will easily occur. .
This is because if the thickness is 5 mm or more, the positive electrode terminal 2 is pressed into the sealing plate 1 and the sealing plate made of resin is cracked during storage and is easily broken. Further, the tip of the lower shaft portion 2b of the positive electrode terminal is gradually tapered so as to facilitate work when press-fitting into the opening of the sealing plate 1, and the outer diameter of the tip is the inner diameter of the opening. Is smaller than. As the material of the positive electrode terminal 2 and the connecting plate 3, SUS444 and titanium were used in this example, but in addition to this, SU having excellent corrosion resistance in an organic electrolyte solution is used.
S434, SUS316, SUS304, SUS430
Stainless steel such as can also be used. It is more preferable that the stainless steel contains molybdenum in an amount of 0.75 to 4% by weight and has excellent corrosion resistance. As the positive electrode terminal 2, a nickel-plated surface whose contact resistance is electrically reduced can be used.

0mmの範囲にあることが好ましい。A heat-treated thermoplastic resin is used as the material of the sealing plate 1 in order to remove molding strain by heat treatment so as to improve liquid leakage resistance at high temperature, and to use crystals such as polyolefin. This is because in the case of a volatile resin, the strength of the sealing plate is improved by heat treatment, and stable sealing is performed without deforming the sealing plate. Although the heat treatment temperature varies depending on the type of resin used for the sealing plate, it is generally effective to perform the heat treatment in the range of 100 ° C. or higher to less than the melting point of the resin. Further, the effect is exhibited if the heat treatment time is 30 minutes or more, but the range of 1 to 48 hours is preferable, and the heat treatment may be performed for a longer time as long as the sealing plate does not deteriorate. In the examples, a polypropylene sealing plate that has been heat-treated at 130 ° C. for 12 hours is used, but in the case of polypropylene, a liquid leakage resistance effect appears at 100 ° C. or higher, and in particular, a sealing plate in which the positive electrode terminal lower shaft portion 2b is press-fitted. Effective in preventing liquid leakage from the opening. But 160
On the contrary, when the temperature is higher than 0 ° C, the resin strength becomes brittle, so that cracks may be generated from the through holes of the sealing plate into which the positive electrode terminal is press-fitted and liquid leakage may easily occur. Another feature of the assembled sealing plate of the present invention is that it has an explosion-proof effect. If the internal pressure of the battery rises or heat is applied due to some external factor, the assembled sealing plate will be deformed outward, and the thickness of the sealing plate and connecting plate and connecting plate outer diameter / The ratio of the outer diameter of the sealing plate is adjusted. Regarding the thickness of the sealing plate, the thicker the sealing plate outer edge portion, which is crimped by the tip of the battery case 8, the better the liquid leakage resistance, and the thinner the sealing plate is, the better the deformability when the battery internal pressure rises. There is. Therefore, the thickness satisfying both characteristics is 1.0 to 4.
It is preferably in the range of 0 mm.

の小さいレーザー溶接の方が好ましい。As for the connecting plate 3, the lower end surface of the lower shaft portion of the positive electrode terminal 2 is welded to the central portion thereof, and the positive electrode lead plate 9 is welded to the peripheral portion thereof. As the outer diameter of the connecting plate becomes closer to the outer diameter of the sealing plate, the deformation of the sealing plate is prevented when the internal pressure of the battery rises.
It is necessary to set the ratio of the outer diameter of the sealing plate to 0.85 or less. If it is more than that, the pressure resistance of the assembled sealing plate becomes high, and the explosion-proof effect is hard to work. The thickness of the connecting plate is also related to the explosion-proof effect of the assembled sealing plate, and must be 0.5 mm or less to follow the deformation of the sealing plate when the internal pressure of the battery rises. Further, in order to maintain stable welding strength, the thickness of the connecting plate needs to be 0.1 mm or more. Therefore, it is necessary that the thickness satisfying both of these characteristics is in the range of 0.1 to 0.5 mm. There are methods such as laser welding and resistance welding for spot welding the positive electrode terminal 2 and the connecting plate 3, but laser welding having high welding strength and small variation is preferable.

Since it is spot-welded to the positive electrode lead plate 9, electrical continuity is ensured. Further, the rivet-shaped positive electrode terminal is fixed by press fitting into the sealing plate 1 and welding with the connecting plate 3, and is not fixed by crimping as in the conventional case. Therefore, even if the polypropylene sealing plate 1 shrinks in a cold atmosphere or an oxide film is formed on the surface of the positive electrode terminal for a long period of use, it is not affected at all and the electrical continuity is stably maintained.
