- a positive electrode material, an electrolyte material and a negative electrode material are placed in a mold, and are pressed to make a pellet in which electrode layers and electrolyte layer form a layered structure (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as “electrolyte-electrode layered assembly”). After the pellet is removed from the mold, current collecting plates are attached thereto, whereby a cell is produced.
- the invention provides a solid lithium secondary cell that employs an electrically insulating frame part and that is capable of restraining the coming-apart of a current-collecting member from the electrolyte-electrode layered assembly or reduction of the contact area of a current-collecting member with the electrode layer (hereinafter, referred to as “the coming-apart or the like”), and also provides a production method for the solid lithium secondary cell.
- a first aspect of the invention is a solid lithium secondary cell that includes: an electrically insulating tubular insulating frame; a solid electrolyte layer formed within the insulating frame; an electrode layer that is layered on at least one of surfaces of the solid electrolyte layer, and that is formed within the insulating frame; and a current-collecting member that is layered on the electrode layer, and that is held by the insulating frame.

- the coming-apart or the like of the current-collecting member can be restrained.
- the first aspect of the invention a space between the frame part and the current-collecting member is filled with the powder of the material of the electrode layer. Therefore, by the elastic force of the powder, the current-collecting member is fixed to the insulating frame. Hence, the coming-apart or the like of the current-collecting member can be effectively prevented. That is, in this invention, the current-collecting member is held indirectly by the insulating frame, via the powder of the electrode material.
- a gap into which the powder of the electrode material moves is formed between the frame part and the current-collecting member, and the current-collecting member is held by the elastic force of the powder that fills the gap.
- the powder of the electrode material gets in between the current-collecting member and the frame part.
- a solid lithium secondary cell in which the current-collecting member is held by the frame part via the elastic force of the powder can be produced.
- the powder of the electrode material is more certainly forced to get in between the frame part and the current-collecting member.

- the size of the negative electrode current collecting plate 14 is determined so that the difference between the inside diameter of the insulating frame 12 and the outside diameter of the negative electrode current collecting plate 14 is 300 micrometers.
- the gaps 30 between the insulating frame 12 and the current collecting plates 14 and 16 formed in this manner are filled with the materials of the electrode layers 22 and 24 , respectively, as described above.
- the current collecting plates 14 and 16 are held by the elastic force of the electrode materials that fills the gaps between the insulating frame 12 and the current collecting plates 14 and 16 , and are fixed to the insulating frame 12 .

Then, as shown in FIG. 5 , 70Li 2 S-30P 2 S 5 , which is the electrolyte material, is placed in the insulating frame 50 , and tentative pressing is performed to form an electrolyte layer 52 . Then, as shown in FIG.

- the pressing is performed so that each of the current collecting plates 60 and 62 moves to the electrolyte layer 52 within the insulating frame 50 .
- the electrode layers plastically deform so that the materials of the electrode layers enter the gaps between the insulating frame 50 and the current collecting plates 60 and 62 .
- the materials of the electrode layers are forced to fill the gaps between the insulating frame 50 and the current collecting plates 60 and 62 .
- the current collecting plates are held by the elastic force of the materials of the electrode layers.
- the definitive pressing is performed so that each of the current collecting plates having a thickness of 300 micrometers moves a distance of 100 micrometers. In this manner, the materials of the electrode layers are forced to get in between the insulating frame and the side surfaces of the current collecting plates.
- the solid lithium secondary cell of this embodiment since the current collecting plate is held by the insulating frame, the coming-apart of the current collecting plates or the like is restrained.
- the coming-apart of a current collecting plate during production lowers the productivity, and the coming-apart thereof after production makes the charging and discharging difficult.
- these troubles can be restrained since the coming-apart of a current collecting plate can be restrained.
- the contact pressure or the contact area between the electrode layer and the current collecting plates declines although the coming-apart of a current collecting plate does not occur, the contact resistance increases.
- the all-solid lithium secondary cell of the invention since movement of the current collecting plates relative to the insulating frame can be restrained, the weakening of the contact between the electrode layer and the current collecting plates can also be restrained.
- the sizes of the insulating frame and the current collecting plates are determined so that the difference between the inside diameter of the insulating frame and the outside diameter of the current collecting plates is 300 micrometers.
- the average particle diameter of the materials of the electrodes used in this embodiment is 10 to 20 micrometers, sufficient amounts of the electrode materials to hold the current collecting plates can be forced into the gaps between the insulating frame and the side surfaces of the current collecting plates if the size of the gaps is about 150 micrometers. Therefore, the current collecting plates are held by the elastic force of the electrode materials forced to fill the gaps between the insulating frame and the current collecting plates.
- the electrode materials fill the gaps between the insulating frame and the current collecting plates, the electrode materials present in the electrode layer does not contact the external air.
- the electrode layers are high in reactivity, and are therefore likely to deteriorate when in contact with the external air. According to this embodiment, however, the electrode layers do not undergo deterioration since the electrode layers do not contact the electrode layer.
- the electrode layers are high in reactivity as described above, the contact of the electrode layers with a kind of resin or the like that is different from the electrode materials give rise to a risk of an unexpected reaction. In this embodiment, however, since air-tightness is secured by using the materials of the electrode layers instead of a sealing material that is different in kind from the electrode layer materials, there is no occurrence of an unexpected reaction.
- each current collecting plate is inserted in the insulating frame, and a portion thereof is protruded out of the insulating frame. Therefore, it is possible to easily attach a mechanism that extracts output from the cell, and therefore productivity improves. Besides, since the spaces between the insulating frame and the current collecting plates on both sides are filled with the electrode materials, this construction restrains the coming-apart of either current collecting plate.
- the process of performing the pressing, and the process of forcing the materials of the electrode layers to get in between the insulating frame and the current collecting plates can be simultaneously performed, and therefore the production is easy.
- the insulating frame can be held in a pressed state, the insulating frame and the current collecting plate can be fixed with an appropriate pressure applied thereto. Therefore, a solid lithium secondary cell with a reduced contact resistance can be produced.
- the sizes of the insulating frame and the current collecting plate are determined so that the difference between the inside diameter of the insulating frame and the outside diameter of the current collecting plates is 300 micrometers, this is not restrictive. It is appropriate to set the sizes of the insulating frame and the current collecting plates so that the materials of the electrode layers can get in between the insulating frame and the current collecting plates, and so that the current collecting plates can be held by the elastic force of the materials of the electrode layers.
- the size of the gaps between the current collecting plates and the insulating frame may be in the range of 50 micrometers to 600 micrometers and, particularly, in the range of 100 micrometers to 600 micrometers. That is, the outside diameter of the current collecting plates may be smaller than the inside diameter of the insulating frame by a length of 100 micrometers to 1200 micrometers and, particularly, by a length of 200 micrometers to 1200 micrometers.
- the easiness of the entrance of the materials of the electrode layers into the spaces between the insulating frame and the current collecting plates is considered to be dependent on the particle diameter of the materials. Therefore, the difference between the inside diameter of the insulating frame and the outside diameter of the current collecting plates may be determined on the basis of the particle diameter of the materials of the electrode layers. Concretely, the size of the gaps between the insulating frame and the side surfaces of the current collecting plates may be about 2 to 30 times the average particle diameter of the electrode layer materials (the difference in diameter between the insulating frame and the side surfaces of the current collecting plates may be about 4 to 60 times the average particle diameter). Depending on the production method for the electrode layer materials, particles whose diameters are larger than the average particle diameter can also exist in the materials.
- the size of the gaps may be set on the basis of the maximum particle diameter of the material substances of the electrode layers.
- the size of the gaps between the insulating frame and the side surfaces of the current collecting plates may be about 1 to 10 times the maximum particle diameter (the difference in diameter therebetween may be about 2 to 20 times the maximum particle diameter).
- the current collecting plates are held by the elastic force of the material substances of the electrode layers, this is not restrictive. It suffices that the current collecting plates are held or fixed by the insulating frame.
- the current collecting plates may be held directly by the insulating frame.
- the outside diameter of the current collecting plates may be substantially equal to the inside diameter of the insulating frame. Therefore, the current collecting plates can be held directly by the insulating frame, and air-tightness of the electrode layers can be secured. That is, from the view point of restraining the coming-apart of the current collecting plates or the like, it is appropriate that the current collecting plates be held directly or indirectly by the insulating frame.
- the insulating frame is constructed of an electrically insulating member, and has a shape that allows an electrolyte-electrode layered assembly to be formed in its interior, and that makes it possible to directly or indirectly hold the current collecting plate.
- the insulating frame may have a shape of a hollow tube having a rectangular cross-section (square tube), or a tubular shape having a polygonal or elliptical cross-section. That is, in this application, the term “tubular” is not limited to a circular tubular shape.
- each current collecting plate is within the insulating frame and another portion thereof is outside the insulating frame, this is not restrictive.
- a structure as shown in FIG. 8 in which the current collecting plates are provided within an insulating frame 72 is also permissible. In this structure, the coming-apart of the current collecting plates or the like can be restrained even in the case where a lateral force is applied to the cell.
- both the current collecting plates of the negative electrode and the positive electrode are held by the insulating frame, this is not restrictive. It is appropriate that the foregoing construction in which an insulating fame holds a current collecting plate be applied to at least one of the two current collecting plates. Therefore, for example, in a solid cell having a construction in which the electrode layer of the negative electrode serves also as a current collecting plate of the negative electrode, it is appropriate to apply the invention to the side of the positive electrode.
- Embodiment 1 uses LiCoO 2 as a positive electrode active material, 70Li 2 S-30P 2 S 5 as an electrolyte material, graphite as a negative electrode active material, and stainless steel as a current collecting plate.
- the current collecting plate be made of an electrically conductive substance that provides such a strength that the current collecting plate can be held directly or indirectly by the insulating frame. For example, aluminum, nickel, copper, etc. may be used.
- the positive electrode active material used herein may be, for example, TiS 2 , LiNiO 2 , etc.
- the negative electrode active material used herein may be, for example, Li metal, Li—Al alloy, Li—In alloy, etc.
- the electrolyte material used herein may also be solid electrolytes other than 70Li 2 S-30P 2 S 5 , such as Li 3 PO 4 —Li 2 S—SiS 2 -based glass, a chalcogenite-based lithium ion conductor containing Li 2 O, Li 2 SO 4 and Li 2 CO 3 , a material containing lithium halide, and other oxide-based lithium ion conductors, etc.
- solid electrolytes other than 70Li 2 S-30P 2 S 5 , such as Li 3 PO 4 —Li 2 S—SiS 2 -based glass, a chalcogenite-based lithium ion conductor containing Li 2 O, Li 2 SO 4 and Li 2 CO 3 , a material containing lithium halide, and other oxide-based lithium ion conductors, etc.
- the particle diameter of the electrode active material and the electrolyte material is not limited to the particle diameters mentioned above in conjunction with Embodiment 1, but it is appropriate that a particle diameter selected be suitably selected, from the view point of productivity.
- each current collecting plate moves 100 micrometers
- this is not restrictive. It is appropriate to determine an amount of movement of the current collecting plates such that the materials of the electrode layer are forced into the gaps to such a degree that the current collecting plates can be held by the elastic force of the materials of the electrode layers.
- the moving distance of each current collecting plate relative to the insulating frame be equal to or greater than one-fifth of the thickness of the current collecting plates, and be less than or equal to the thickness of the current collecting plates.
- the tentative pressing pressure and the definitive pressing pressure so that the moving distance of the each current collecting plate relative to the insulating frame is equal to or greater than one-fifth of the thickness of each current collecting plate, and is less than or equal to the thickness of each current collecting plate.
- the tentative pressing is performed, this is not restrictive. Specifically, a feature of this production method is that materials constituting the electrode layers are forced to get in between the insulating frame and outer peripheries of the current collecting plates, and it suffices that the production method is able to achieve the foregoing operation and effect. That is, the tentative pressing may be omitted. Incidentally, since the tentative pressing fixes the materials of the electrode layers to some extent, the tentative pressing may also be performed from the viewpoint of productivity.
