Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce the ratio of the sealed parts of unit cells in a collected battery by mutually superposing the sealed parts of the unit cells. SOLUTION: A unit cell is manufactured by the use of a positive electrode 1, a negative electrode 2, and a separator 3, and an aluminum laminate sheet 5 having an outside molded in advance into a protruding part and a general aluminum laminate sheet 4 are welded thereto. Thus, the unit cell in which a sealed part is shifted from the thickness central line of a battery is completed. The completed unit cells are connected alternately to each other, so that the sealed parts of the adjacent batteries are mutually superposed and flatly continued, whereby the connection of thin batteries is completed. Consequently, the sealed part width of the unit cell is halved substantially, and the energy density is improved. Since the total thickness of the batteries is the same as in the unit cell thickness where they are serially connected, the overall equipment can be thinned in the mounting on a personal computer or the like.
