Abstract

PURPOSE:To simplify the structure of an electric appliance using a battery by forming a negative electrode at the fixed position on the surface of each primary and secondary battery having the same shape and moreover the same output voltage as plural dry cells disposed in a straight line. CONSTITUTION:The external shape of the main body 1 of a battery is the same as the shape of plural dry cells disposed in a straight line, and moreover the battery can generate the electric current of the same output voltage as the cells have. And, a positive electrode 2 is formed at the center of head terminal of the main body 1 of the battery so as to project a little as the same shape of a dry cell has, and a negative electrode 3 is formed at the position on the side surface of the main body 1 of the battery. Thus, the electric appliance using this battery may not be necessary to form a case, so that it is possible to simplify the structure.

(Conventional technology) Standards for dry batteries (-secondary batteries) such as shape, dimensions, and voltage are standardized worldwide, and if the batteries have the same specifications,
It can be exchanged for anything. In particular, round bar-shaped dry batteries such as "single", RL-2, and "single ball" protrude from the center of the top of the main body, which has ten poles, and the bottom has one pole, and this battery can be When arranged in tandem, the bottom surface (-pole) of one dry battery comes into contact with the protrusion (10 poles) of the other dry battery, so a series circuit is formed without requiring any connection means, and the number of dry batteries can be reduced. A current with a voltage corresponding to the voltage can be obtained.

Electrical appliances that use these dry batteries have a case for installing the batteries, but this case is not suitable for electric appliances that use two or more dry batteries in tandem, so that each dry cell can be inserted and removed independently. In this case, the head of the foremost dry battery becomes the + pole, and the bottom of the last dry battery becomes the positive pole. Since it has one pole, it is necessary to attach at least a lead wire corresponding to the entire length of the dry battery to the case. For this reason, conventional electric appliances have disadvantages such as the complicated structure of the dry cell case, high work costs, and troublesome installation and removal of the dry cell battery.

For this reason, in the past, attempts have been made to use large dry batteries of the same size as multiple dry batteries arranged in tandem for electrical appliances that require large currents. However, in this case, the electrode is still at the tip of the battery and the - pole is at the rear end, so there is almost no change in the structure of the battery case for electrical appliances, so there is no advantage in terms of practicality. There wasn't.

In addition, in recent years, rechargeable batteries (secondary batteries) have been developed that have the same shape and the same current as multiple dry batteries arranged in series, and these are called dry batteries (secondary batteries). It is now possible to use it instead. However, like the primary battery described in Section 2 above, this battery also has a + pole on the protrusion at the head end and a single pole on the rear end, making the structure of the case of the electrical appliance complicated and impractical. It was.

The center of the head end of the battery body 1 protrudes slightly as in the case of a dry battery, and this serves as an electrode 2, and a negative pole 3 is formed on the side surface of the battery body 1. This negative pole 3 is a feature of the battery, and is formed at a position spaced apart from the head end of the battery body 1 by a constant distance.

Of course, the spacing is unique depending on the size of the battery, especially the output voltage of the battery, and batteries with different output voltages have different mounting positions for one pole 3, and the mounting positions overlap. It is important to make sure that this does not happen.

Figures 1 (a) and (b) are examples of this; in a small battery (low output voltage), one pole 3 is formed near the top end of the battery body 1, and in a large battery, It was formed at a position a little further away. In addition, although the single pole 3 is shown as having a quadrilateral shape in the figure, it is not necessarily limited to this shape; for example, it may be formed in a band shape around the entire circumference of the battery body 1. . That is, if the -pole 3 is formed into a band shape, then when it is set in an electrical appliance, the -pole 3
will always short-circuit with the contacts of electrical appliances, and if the - pole is made to a certain size as shown in the figure, it will function as a switch, and by rotating the battery, it will short-circuit between the one pole and the contact. Since the short-circuit state can be switched, either one can be selected depending on the structure of the electrical appliance.

(Effects of the Invention) As detailed above, the present invention forms one pole at a certain position on the side of a battery corresponding to two or more dry batteries arranged in tandem. Electrical appliances that use batteries do not necessarily need to have a case to house the batteries, and in particular, the electrode contacts and single-pole contacts can be formed close to each other, making it easier to insert lead wires inside the case. Since there is no need to attach the electric appliance, the mechanism and structure of the electric appliance are simplified, and the processing cost is significantly reduced.
