Abstract

PURPOSE:To enhance welding property in case of hermetic seal due to reduced thickness of a lid, by forming the body part of the sealing lid with 2-phase stainless steel; while one side electrode terminal member being mounted to the sealing lid through an insulating part made of such material as glass or the like. CONSTITUTION:A negative electrode 1, a separator 2 and a positive electrode 3 are housed in a battery case 4. Also, the body part 8 of a sealing lid 5 to which the positive electrode side terminal 6 is attached via an insulating part 7 made of glass or ceramics is formed with 2-phase stainless steel such as SUS329J1 or the like, its peripheral area is welded to the opening of the case 4, the electrolytic solution is poured thereinto from a pipe 6, and after that a closed-type battery such as a thionyl chloride-lithium battery or the like can be formed by sealing the battery case. Consequently, the thin-walled lid 5 with large strength can be welded without requiring a high-temperature heat input so that breakdown of the insulating part, generation of defective welding or the like can be greatly decreased.

For example, a hermetic seal is used as a sealing means in batteries that require a high degree of sealing, such as thionyl lulithicium chloride batteries. In the case of this hermetic vinyl, the battery case and the sealing lid are joined by welding, and a part of the body of the sealing lid is attached to the battery case in consideration of weldability with the battery case and resistance to the strong corrosive action of thionyl chloride. Similarly, it is made of austenitic stainless steel such as K SUS 804.5USfl104L.

804, SUS 804 L etc., as shown in Figure 8, the body part (8) of the sealing lid (5) is thicker than the battery case (4) (approximately twice as thick). be)
Therefore, high heat input is required during welding, which tends to have a negative effect on the contents such as the active material and separator filled in the battery case, as well as the insulating parts made of glass or ceramics, and may also cause uneven heating. There is a problem in that the welding itself does not provide good strength because the welding process takes a long time.
