Abstract

PURPOSE:To effectively keep the airtightness of a battery to prevent deterioration in capacity by installing projections for partially pressing a rubber plate in a press-down plate, and firmly fixing the rubber plate which covers the opening of a vent in the periphery of the vent. CONSTITUTION:A step 1a which is wider than the diameter of a vent 1 in the upper part of the vent 1, and a rubber plate 2, which is resistant to sulfuric acid and capable of long term use, such as chloroprene is arranged so as to cover the vent 1. A plurality of projections 3a which extend downward and have curved edges are annularly installed at suitable intervals in a press-down plate arranged on the rubber plate 2. The rubber plate 2 is pressed by the projections 3a so that the edges of the projections are slightly embedded in the plate 2 to fix the periphery of the vent 1. By firmly fixing the rubber plate 2, the airtightness of a battery is effectively kept and capacity deterioration of the battery can be prevented.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In recent years, the demand for sealed lead-acid batteries has been increasing as a backup power source for computers as well as a tuple power source. Such a sealed lead-acid battery recovers oxygen gas generated from the positive electrode plate by electrolysis of water during charging by reacting with the negative electrode active material, 18-type lead, and also recovers the oxygen gas generated from the positive electrode plate when the negative electrode plate is partially uncharged. Since the battery is equipped with a mechanism that prevents hydrogen gas from being generated from the negative electrode plate due to the condition avc, normally gas does not dissipate to the outside of the battery. However, when overcharging with a large current, the amount of oxygen gas generated at the positive electrode plate is greater than the oxygen gas absorption capacity of the negative electrode plate, and hydrogen gas is also generated from the negative electrode plate, so if it is completely sealed, The pressure inside the battery becomes quite high. Therefore, a safety valve is provided that opens when the internal pressure of the battery increases and releases the internal gas to the outside of the battery. In addition, in a sealed type battery, if left alone, the negative electrode plate further absorbs oxygen gas, resulting in a reduced pressure state. In this case, if the airtightness inside the battery is not maintained, oxygen gas present in the air will be sucked in, causing rapid deterioration of the negative electrode plate.
The safety valve blocks oxygen from entering from the outside and maintains airtightness.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in the conventional configuration described above, the rubber plate 20 is held down only by pressure from the cushioning material 21 and the presser plate 22, and therefore, when the reduced pressure becomes strong, the rubber plate 20 closes to the exhaust port 19. If the rubber plate 20 is sucked into the battery and exposed to strong vibrations or shocks, there is a risk that the rubber plate 20 may become displaced, and the airtightness inside the battery cannot be maintained.
