けられ、第2電極シート12の集電極層12aの外縁に分極性電極層12bの厚さよりも高さが大きな位置ずれ防止突起12a2が設けられ、第3電極シート13の集電極層13aの外縁に分極性電極層13bの厚さよりも高さが大きな位置ずれ防止突起13a2が設けられている。これら位置ずれ防止突起11a2、12a2及び13a2は外縁に沿って連続した形状でも外縁に沿って連続しない形状でも良いが、2次元的な位置ずれを防止するには外縁の少なくとも2箇所に設けられていることが望ましい。
図17~図30は本発明をリチウムイオンキャパシタに適用した実施形態を示す。このリチウムイオンキャパシタは、蓄電素子40と、該蓄電素子40に接続された一対のリード20と、該一対のリード20の一部が露出するように蓄電素子10を封入したパッケージ50と、を備えている。
(1)第1実施形態では、第1電極シート11、セパレートシート14、第2電極シート12、セパレートシート14、第3電極シート13の順に重ね合わせて得た積層体を折り曲げて重ね合わせることで蓄電素子10を構成したものを示し、第2実施形態では、第1電極シート41、セパレートシート43、第2電極シート42の順に重ね合わせて得た積層体を折り曲げて重ね合わせることで蓄電素子10を構成したものを示したが、折り曲げる前の積層体のシート数は第1実施形態に示した積層体(図7(B)を参照)よりも増加しても良い。
