- the processing device 10 can apply surface pressure to one or more batteries 14 at the same time.

- At least one or more batteries 14 can be accommodated in the frame 11 , and the number of fixing elements 12 same as that of the batteries 14 accommodated are used. In the example below, it is assumed that five batteries 14 are accommodated.
- a battery 14 is put onto a fixed side wall disposed on the shorter edge of the frame 11 , and thereafter the fixing element 12 is positioned on the battery 14 . Five batteries and five fixing elements 12 are alternately placed in this order. Thereafter, the pressing portion 13 is set in a position next to the fixing element 12 last placed.
- the frame 11 can be made of, for example, aluminum alloy. Alternatively, a material such as stainless steel or the like which is unlikely to rust, can be used. In these cases, preferably, an insulating layer may be provided on the outermost surface of the frame 11 . Other materials available for the frame 11 may include polytetrafluoroethylene or the like.
- the dimensions of the frame 11 can be determined in accordance with the shape and dimension of a battery 14 to be accommodated therein. If a battery 14 to be accommodated has a width 100 mm, thickness 20 mm, and height 150 mm, the dimensions of the frame 11 can be width 120 mm, thickness 200 mm, and height 170 mm.

- an electric cell of a lithium ion secondary battery is used as a battery 14 .
- a battery 14 is placed in the processing device 10 , and subjected to a pre-initial charging processing.
- a battery 14 comprises electrodes 18 and electrolyte (not shown) in a battery case 16 having a sealing valve 17 , a cathode terminal 21 , and an anode terminal 23 .
- the battery case 16 is made of aluminum or made using an aluminum and resin-laminated sheet, or the like.
- the battery case 16 has a sealing valve 17 on an upper portion thereof.
- the sealing valve 17 is kept open when pouring electrolyte and then closed after the pouring.
- the cathode terminal 21 is a terminal adapted to electrical connection to the cathode plate 20
- the anode terminal 23 is a terminal adapted to electrical connection to the anode plate 22 .
- FIG. 3 is a diagram explaining a structure of the electrodes 18 .
- the electrodes 18 comprise a cathode plate 20 , an anode plate 22 , and a separator 24 .
- the electrodes 18 are wound such that the separator 24 sandwiched by the cathode plate 20 and the anode plate 22 .
- the battery 14 When the battery 14 is charged, lithium ions are discharged from the cathode plate 20 and lithium ions are absorbed by the anode plate 22 , causing the electrodes 18 to expand.
- the battery 14 has the dimensions defined in consideration of change in thickness of the electrodes 18 due to the expansion.
- An uncharged battery 14 before expansion leaves a small space “d” between the cathode plate 20 and anode plate 22 of the electrodes 18 .
- FIG. 4 is a diagram explaining batteries 14 installed and fixed in the processing device 10 .
- the battery 14 is accommodated in the frame 11 of the processing device 10 , and the fixing element 12 is provided on the side of the battery 14 where the pressing portion 13 is located. Thereafter, a predetermined surface pressure is applied to the battery 14 by the pressing portion 13 .
- FIG. 5 is a flowchart explaining a procedure within a method of manufacturing a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery.
- a battery 14 having electrodes 18 in the battery case 16 is provided; electrolyte is introduced and allowed to permeate through the electrodes 18 ; surface pressure is applied to the battery 14 ; and a space-reduced state with the space “d” reduced is maintained for a predetermined period of time; and thereafter the pre-initial charging process is terminated.
- electrodes 18 such that the cathode plate 20 and the anode plate 22 sandwich the separator 24 are installed in the battery case 16 .
- electrolyte is poured into the battery case 16 in which the electrodes 18 has been installed (S 12 ).
- the sealing valve 17 provided on the battery case 16 is opened for the pouring procedure, and closed after pouring has been completed. After the pouring, the electrolyte may be allowed to permeate (S 14 ) by allowing the battery 14 to sit.
- surface pressure is applied using the processing device 10 to eliminate the space “d” and ensure that, e.g., iron-based foreign bodies contact the cathode plate 20 , because it can be expected that any metallic foreign bodies 26 which are the iron-based foreign bodies, present near the cathode plate 20 , may not contact the cathode plate 20 when there exists in such the space “d”.
- a surface pressure of between at least 0.1 MPa and 5.0 MPa, more preferably, between at least 0.1 MPa and 2.0 MPa is applied.
- the applied pressure must be no less than 0.1 Mpa because a surface pressure of less than 0.1 MPa is too small to maintain a constant surface pressure, such that an inconstant surface pressure will be applied to the electrodes 18 . Meanwhile, because application of a too high surface pressure when a porous film is used for the separator may crush the pores of the separator, the upper limit of the surface pressure is defined such that the extent of porousness of the separator does not drop.
- the space-reduced state is maintained for between at least one to 35 hours (S 18 ). While the holding time may differ depending on the nature, dimensions, and the like, of metallic foreign bodies 26 which can be removed by the time of initial charging, it can be understand based on the melting speed of the metallic foreign bodies 26 that such a state must be held for at least one hour. A longer holding time ensures reliable melting of metallic foreign bodies 26 . However, as the copper or the like constituting the anode charge collector which is a component of the electrodes 18 could melt at some potential, the holding time must be limited to, for example, 35 hours or shorter, that is, within a range which will not adversely affect the battery functionality.
- the pre-initial charging process step is terminated (S 20 ).
- the initial charging is applied after the holding step (S 18 ) because it has been confirmed through experimental observation that, because the melting potential of metallic foreign bodies 26 is lower than the charge/discharge cathode potential when the battery 14 has yet to be charged and remains in an open-circuit state, electrically conductive metallic foreign bodies 26 contacting the cathode plate 20 will gradually melt and be diffused, even if the battery 14 is not yet charged. In other words, so-called galvanic corrosion will occur, whereas such metallic foreign bodies 26 will not melt when not contacting the cathode plate 20 .
- the electrically conductive iron-based foreign bodies are brought into reliable contact with the cathode plate 20 before initial charging with the cathode potential being equal to the melting potential of the iron-based foreign bodies, so that the iron-based foreign bodies melt and iron ions of the iron-based foreign bodies solvated in the electrolyte are diffused in the battery 14 before application of initial charging.
- the above processing it is possible to suppress occurrence of internal short-circuiting of the battery 14 , voltage drop defects, and other disadvantages.
- a battery 14 was prepared (S 10 ).
- electrodes 18 wound with the cathode plate 20 and the anode plate 20 sandwiching the separator 18 were installed in the battery case 16 .
- the sealing valve 17 of the battery case 16 having the electrodes 18 therein was opened, and the battery case was filled with electrolyte (S 12 ). After the pouring of the electrolyte, the sealing valve 17 was closed, and the electrolyte was allowed to permeate (S 14 ).

- the comparative example was carried out following the procedure shown in FIG. 7 . Specifically, following a procedure similar to that shown in FIG. 5 , respective steps from preparation (S 10 ) to electrolyte permeation (S 14 ) were performed. Thereafter, without performing the battery fixing step (S 16 ) and the holding step (S 18 ), corresponding to the space reducing step, the pre-initial charging process was terminated (S 20 ).

Similar to the example of the embodiment, in order to verify the effects of the comparative example, disk-like iron-based foreign bodies having a diameter of 100 ⁇ m and thickness of 20 ⁇ m were placed in advance in the vicinity of the cathode plate 20 , following the procedure shown in FIG. 7 . After initial charging, in order to verify the effects of the comparative example, the battery 14 was decomposed and structural components, namely, the cathode plate 20 , the anode plate 22 , and the separator 24 , were removed and observed with the above microscope.

- FIGS. 10 and 11 are diagrams explaining devices having a function of heating the battery 14 . These devices can heat the fixed battery 14 so that the electrodes 18 are brought to and maintained in a closely contacting state, even after the battery 14 is released. With such configuration, a battery fixing device need only be used for a shorter period of time to maintain a reliable connection of the metallic foreign bodies 26 with the cathode plate 20 . This can enable further cost reductions.
- FIG. 10 is a diagram showing batteries 14 placed in the processing device 10 within a high temperature furnace 38 .
- the batteries 14 arranged in the processing device 10 are placed in the high temperature furnace 38 , which is then operated to heat the batteries 14 so that the temperature inside the batteries 14 increases to 25° C. to 60° C.
- the upper limit of the temperature is set to 60° C. in order to suppress dissolution of electrolyte which is known to begin dissolving at about 70° C. or higher.
- the electrodes 18 are maintained in a closely contacting state and remain so thereafter, even after the batteries 14 are released from being fixed.
- FIG. 11 is a diagram explaining a structure of a heating function-equipped processing device 40 .

- the heating function-equipped fixing element 42 has a function of heating the battery 14 to the above described temperature of, for example, 25° C. to 60° C., while applying a surface pressure between at least 0.1 MPa and 5.0 MPa to the batteries 14 .
- the heating control device 44 has a function of controlling the heat temperature of the heating function-equipped fixing element 42 .
- stainless steel foreign bodies are known to be passivated at a potential lower than that required for foreign bodies made of iron. Therefore, if 18% of the mass of Cr is comprised of stainless steel foreign bodies, the cathode potential is adjusted to ⁇ 0.25 v to +0.25 v according to the Standard Hydrogen Electrode Reference (2.8 v to 3.2 v according to the Li/Li + Reference) and so held.
- FIG. 12 is a flowchart explaining processes of a method of manufacturing a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery when the cathode potential is adjusted and so held.
- respective steps up to the battery fixing step (S 16 ) are performed following a procedure similar to that shown in FIG. 5 , and thereafter the cathode potential is adjusted and maintained using a power source device 36 having the structure shown in FIG. 13 (S 19 ).
- the state of holding corresponds to a state in which a surface pressure is maintained at a predetermined value and the cathode potential is kept at a potential which is lower than the charge/discharge cathode potential and at which metallic foreign bodies 26 melt.
- a pre-initial charging process is terminated (S 20 ), similarly as in FIG. 5 .
- FIG. 13 is a diagram explaining structures of the power source device 36 , the processing device 10 , and the battery 14 .
- the power source device 36 can be connected to the cathode terminal 21 and the anode terminal 23 of the battery 14 , and has a function of adjusting and maintaining the cathode potential.
- the power source device 36 has a function of adjusting and maintaining the cathode potential while the battery is kept fixed.
- the cathode potential can be adjusted to ⁇ 0.25 v to +0.25 v according to the Standard Hydrogen Electrode Reference.
- the battery voltage may be adjusted based on the relationship between the battery voltage and the desired cathode potential.
- the holding time is set to between at least one hour and 35 hours for the reasons described above.
- the battery fixing step is described as a step corresponding to the space reducing step, while the battery fixing step (S 16 ) is a step at which a surface pressure is externally applied to the battery 14 .
- the pressure inside the battery 14 is reduced to thereby eliminate the space “d” in the electrodes 18 so that the metallic foreign bodies 26 contact the cathode plate 20 .
- This procedure includes a battery depressurizing step instead of the battery fixing step (S 16 ) corresponding to the space reducing step in the flowchart shown in FIG. 5 . That is, respective steps until electrolyte permeation (S 14 ) are performed.
- the battery 14 is depressurized using the structure shown in FIG. 14 or FIG. 15 , which are described below. Thereafter, respective steps from the holding step (S 18 ) to termination of the pre-initial charging process (S 20 ) are performed.
- FIGS. 14 and 15 are diagrams explaining the operation and structure of a device having a function of applying a surface pressure to the electrodes 18 .
- a surface pressure between at least 0.1 MPa and 5.0 MP may be applied to the battery 14 at the space reducing step (S 16 ).
- the device shown in FIGS. 14 and 15 may be used instead of the processing device 10 .
- FIG. 14 is a diagram explaining a structure for applying surface pressure to the battery 14 using a vacuum furnace 30 .
- five (for example) batteries 14 are placed in the vacuum furnace 30 , and depressurized to between 10 kPa and 100 kPa, and surface pressure is externally applied to the batteries 14 .
- the batteries 14 are placed in the vacuum furnace 30 while the sealing valve 17 kept open, and then depressurized. Then, the sealing valve 17 is closed while the batteries 14 remain depressurized, and the batteries 14 are removed from the vacuum furnace 30 .
- an effect similar to that obtained with the configuration shown in FIG. 4 can be attained.
- FIG. 15 is a diagram explaining a structure for applying surface pressure to the battery 14 using a high pressure furnace 34 . Because the pressure of the high pressure furnace 34 can be increased and maintained at a relatively high pressure, an effect similar to that described with reference to FIG. 14 can be produced using the high pressure furnace 34 .
- a processing device for a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery and a manufacturing method thereof according to the present invention are useful for nonaqueous electrolyte secondary batteries and their manufacture because of their ability to melt and diffuse metallic foreign bodies immixed in the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery before performance of initial charging.
- 10 processing device 11 frame, 12 fixing element, 13 pressing portion, 14 battery, 16 battery case, 17 sealing valve, 18 electrodes, 20 cathode plate, 21 cathode terminal, 22 anode plate, 23 anode terminal, 24 separator, 26 metallic foreign bodies, 30 vacuum furnace, 34 high pressure furnace, 36 power source device, 38 high temperature furnace, 40 heating function-equipped processing device, 42 heating function-equipped fixing element, 44 heating control device.
