Description

リチウムイオン二次電池の電極部、リチウムイオン二次電池及びリチウムイオン二次電池の製造方法Electrode part of lithium ion secondary battery, lithium ion secondary battery, and method for producing lithium ion secondary battery
 本発明は、リチウムイオン二次電池の電極部、リチウムイオン二次電池及びリチウムイオン二次電池の製造方法に関する。
 本願は、2015年9月30日に日本に出願された特願2015-195345号に基づき優先権を主張し、その内容をここに援用する。
The present invention relates to an electrode part of a lithium ion secondary battery, a lithium ion secondary battery, and a method of manufacturing a lithium ion secondary battery.
This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2015-195345 for which it applied to Japan on September 30, 2015, and uses the content here.
 リチウムイオン二次電池は、鉛蓄電池やニッケル水素電池に比べてエネルギー密度及び起電力が高いという特長を有しているため、小型化・軽量化が要求される各種の機器用電源として広く利用されている。このリチウムイオン二次電池は、特許文献1に示されるように、正極活物質が正極集電体に塗工された正極部と、負極活物質が負正極集電体に塗工された負極部とを有している。そして、これら両極部間にセパレータ及び電解質を介在させて積層させるとともに、その積層体をケース内に密封させて構成されている。 Lithium ion secondary batteries are characterized by higher energy density and electromotive force than lead-acid batteries and nickel metal hydride batteries. Therefore, they are widely used as power sources for various devices that require miniaturization and weight reduction. ing. As shown in Patent Document 1, the lithium ion secondary battery includes a positive electrode part in which a positive electrode active material is applied to a positive electrode current collector, and a negative electrode part in which a negative electrode active material is applied to a negative positive electrode current collector. And have. And while laminating | stacking a separator and electrolyte between these both pole parts, it is comprised by sealing the laminated body in a case.
 このリチウムイオン二次電池の製造においては、両電極間に所定の圧力が加えられる。なぜならば、電極と電解質とを十分に密着させないと電池の内部抵抗が大きくなって損失電力が増してしまうとともに、電解質と電極とが十分な接触面積を有していないと、所定の電池容量が得られなくなるからである。 In manufacturing the lithium ion secondary battery, a predetermined pressure is applied between both electrodes. This is because if the electrode and the electrolyte are not sufficiently adhered, the internal resistance of the battery increases and the power loss increases, and if the electrolyte and the electrode do not have a sufficient contact area, a predetermined battery capacity is obtained. This is because it cannot be obtained.
 ところで、このようなリチウムイオン二次電池の製造時における加圧作用は、両電極間に短絡を生じさせ、製品の歩留まりを低下させてしまうおそれがあった。特に、負極部の製造時に行われるカッターによる切断の際に、その負極部の切断面に突起(所謂、バリ)が生じると、その突起がセパレータを破ってしまい、両電極間に短絡を生じさせるからである。このような不都合を防止するために、電極の短絡の生じやすい箇所に、予め、ポリイミドあるいはポプロピレン製等の電気絶縁材(絶縁テープ)を貼着することが行われている(例えば、特許文献2参照)。 By the way, the pressurizing action at the time of manufacturing such a lithium ion secondary battery may cause a short circuit between both electrodes, which may reduce the yield of the product. In particular, when a projection (so-called burr) is generated on the cut surface of the negative electrode portion during cutting with a cutter performed at the time of manufacturing the negative electrode portion, the protrusion breaks the separator, causing a short circuit between both electrodes. Because. In order to prevent such an inconvenience, an electrical insulating material (insulating tape) made of polyimide or polypropylene is preliminarily attached to a place where an electrode short-circuit is likely to occur (for example, Patent Documents). 2).

 しかしながら、従来の絶縁テープを用いて両電極間の絶縁を図るリチウムイオン二次電池の場合、絶縁テープは、常時、電解質と接しているために絶縁テープの粘着剤の粘着力が弱まり、絶縁テープが剥がれてしまうおそれがあるとともに、絶縁テープの厚さが厚くなると、電池性能に悪影響を与えるおそれがあった。また、絶縁テープを用いて絶縁を図るリチウムイオン二次電池の場合は、絶縁テープを張り付けなければならないという面倒な工程を必要とし、生産性に劣るという欠点があった。 However, in the case of a lithium ion secondary battery that uses a conventional insulating tape to insulate between both electrodes, the insulating tape is always in contact with the electrolyte, so the adhesive strength of the adhesive of the insulating tape is weakened, and the insulating tape May peel off, and when the thickness of the insulating tape is increased, battery performance may be adversely affected. In addition, in the case of a lithium ion secondary battery that uses an insulating tape to insulate, there is a drawback in that the laborious process of attaching the insulating tape is required, resulting in poor productivity.

 以下、本発明に係る電極部、リチウムイオン二次電池及びリチウムイオン二次電池の製造方法について、図面を用いて説明する。 Hereinafter, an electrode part, a lithium ion secondary battery, and a method for manufacturing a lithium ion secondary battery according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
 図1は、本発明の一実施の形態に係るリチウムイオン二次電池LBの断面図であり、ここでは、上側に負極1が設けられ、下側に正極10が設けられている。そして、負極1と正極10との間にセパレータ20及び電解質層22が介在している。電極部Pは、正極10と負極1とそれらの間に電解質層22を有し、リチウムイオン二次電池を構成する。 FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a lithium ion secondary battery LB according to an embodiment of the present invention, in which a negative electrode 1 is provided on the upper side and a positive electrode 10 is provided on the lower side. A separator 20 and an electrolyte layer 22 are interposed between the negative electrode 1 and the positive electrode 10. The electrode part P has the positive electrode 10, the negative electrode 1, and the electrolyte layer 22 between them, and comprises a lithium ion secondary battery.
 負極1は、例えば銅箔で構成される負極集電体(集電体)2と、その負極集電体2の上下面にそれぞれ生成された負極活物質層(活物質層)3とを有して構成されている。負極活物質層3としては、アルミニウム、黒鉛、金属シリコンあるいは金属リチウム箔等の周知の負極活物質が使用される。そして、この負極集電体2には、一方の一辺側(図1では左側)の一部から突出する端子4が設けられている。 The negative electrode 1 has a negative electrode current collector (current collector) 2 made of, for example, copper foil, and negative electrode active material layers (active material layers) 3 respectively formed on the upper and lower surfaces of the negative electrode current collector 2. Configured. As the negative electrode active material layer 3, a known negative electrode active material such as aluminum, graphite, metal silicon, or metal lithium foil is used. The negative electrode current collector 2 is provided with a terminal 4 protruding from a part of one side (left side in FIG. 1).
 負極1の集電体端部1eは、この負極1が例えばロール・ツー・ロール法(RtoR法)等によって大面積で製造された後に所望の大きさに切り出される際にカッターで切断された部分を示している。カッターの性能状態によっては、負極1の集電体端部1eにおいて、負極活物質層3の表面からその負極1の材料が突出する突起部(所謂、バリであり、図4参照)が生じ易い。ここで、集電体端部1eは、負極集電体2と負極集電体2の上下面にそれぞれ生成された負極活物質層3との積層体の端部のことである。 The current collector end 1e of the negative electrode 1 is a portion that is cut by a cutter when the negative electrode 1 is manufactured in a large area by, for example, a roll-to-roll method (RtoR method) or the like and cut into a desired size. Is shown. Depending on the performance state of the cutter, a protrusion (so-called burr, see FIG. 4) in which the material of the negative electrode 1 protrudes from the surface of the negative electrode active material layer 3 tends to occur at the current collector end 1e of the negative electrode 1. . Here, the current collector end portion 1 e is an end portion of a laminate of the negative electrode current collector 2 and the negative electrode active material layer 3 generated on each of the upper and lower surfaces of the negative electrode current collector 2.
 正極10は、例えばアルミニウム箔から成る正極集電体(集電体)11と、その正極集電体11の上下面にそれぞれ生成された正極活物質層(活物質層)12とを有して構成されている。この正極活物質層12は、主として正極活物質とバインダーとにより構成され、必要に応じて導電助剤が添加される。 The positive electrode 10 includes a positive electrode current collector (current collector) 11 made of, for example, an aluminum foil, and positive electrode active material layers (active material layers) 12 respectively formed on the upper and lower surfaces of the positive electrode current collector 11. It is configured. The positive electrode active material layer 12 is mainly composed of a positive electrode active material and a binder, and a conductive additive is added as necessary.
 正極活物質としては、リチウムイオンを吸蔵及び放出を可逆的に進行する種々の活物質材料を用いることができる。例えば、コバルト酸リチウム、マンガン酸リチウム、ニッケル酸リチウム、チタン酸リチウム等のリチウム複合金属酸化物を用いることができる。また、負極1の負極活物質層3に金属リチウムが用いられたときは、リチウムを含まないFeOOHやNiOOH等の正極活物質が用いられる。そして、この正極集電体11には、一方の一辺側(図示の例では右側)の一部から突出して設けられている端子13が設けられている。 As the positive electrode active material, various active material materials that reversibly advance and absorb lithium ions can be used. For example, lithium composite metal oxides such as lithium cobaltate, lithium manganate, lithium nickelate, and lithium titanate can be used. When metal lithium is used for the negative electrode active material layer 3 of the negative electrode 1, a positive electrode active material such as FeOOH or NiOOH that does not contain lithium is used. The positive electrode current collector 11 is provided with a terminal 13 that protrudes from a part of one side (right side in the illustrated example).
 正極活物質層12の表面には、電気絶縁性を有する塗料を塗布して構成される絶縁塗膜14が設けられている。この塗料には、このアルミナ(酸化アルミニウム(Al))やシリカ(二酸化ケイ素(SiO))等の無機粒子を含んで構成され、塗膜の機械強度が増加されている。 The surface of the positive electrode active material layer 12 is provided with an insulating coating film 14 formed by applying an electrically insulating paint. This paint is composed of inorganic particles such as alumina (aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3 )) and silica (silicon dioxide (SiO 2 )), and the mechanical strength of the coating film is increased.
 図1に示すように、絶縁塗膜14は、正極10のうち、少なくとも、負極1の集電体端部1eに対向する部分10eに設けられる。具体的には、正極集電体11の上下面のうち、負極1の集電体端部1eに対向する所定の範囲に、正極活物質層12と連ねて設けられている。例えば、負極集電体2が銅から構成され、負極活物質層3が、活物質として酸化硅素を含む構成で構成されている場合、絶縁塗膜14の厚みは1μm以上30μm以下であることが好ましい。絶縁塗膜14が上記条件を満たすと、負極1と正極10とをセパレータ20を介して積層した際に、仮に集電体端部1eに形成された突起部がセパレータ20を貫通していても、その突起部の先端が絶縁塗膜14の表面或いは絶縁塗膜14内に配され、負極1と正極10との間の短絡をより確実に防止することができる。但し、絶縁塗膜14の厚み及び機械強度は、負極集電体2、負極活物質層3、正極集電体11及び正極活物質層12の材質等を考慮して、適切に設定されることが好ましい。
 なお、図1では、負極1の集電体端部1e以外に、正極10に設けられている正極活物質層12の周囲部分にも絶縁塗膜14が塗布されている。
 また、絶縁塗膜14が多孔質である場合は、即ち、電気絶縁性を有する塗料が塗布されて形成された塗膜が多孔質である場合は、正極10の表面全体に絶縁塗膜14を形成することもできる。
As shown in FIG. 1, the insulating coating 14 is provided in at least a portion 10 e of the positive electrode 10 that faces the current collector end 1 e of the negative electrode 1. Specifically, the positive electrode current collector 11 is provided in a predetermined range facing the current collector end portion 1 e of the negative electrode 1 on the upper and lower surfaces of the positive electrode current collector 11, and is connected to the positive electrode active material layer 12. For example, when the negative electrode current collector 2 is composed of copper and the negative electrode active material layer 3 is composed of silicon oxide as an active material, the thickness of the insulating coating film 14 may be 1 μm or more and 30 μm or less. preferable. When the insulating coating film 14 satisfies the above conditions, even when the negative electrode 1 and the positive electrode 10 are laminated via the separator 20, even if the protrusion formed on the current collector end 1 e passes through the separator 20. The tip of the protruding portion is disposed on the surface of the insulating coating film 14 or in the insulating coating film 14, so that a short circuit between the negative electrode 1 and the positive electrode 10 can be more reliably prevented. However, the thickness and mechanical strength of the insulating coating film 14 should be appropriately set in consideration of the materials of the negative electrode current collector 2, the negative electrode active material layer 3, the positive electrode current collector 11 and the positive electrode active material layer 12. Is preferred.
In FIG. 1, in addition to the current collector end 1 e of the negative electrode 1, the insulating coating 14 is also applied to the peripheral portion of the positive electrode active material layer 12 provided on the positive electrode 10.
In addition, when the insulating coating film 14 is porous, that is, when the coating film formed by applying an electrically insulating paint is porous, the insulating coating film 14 is applied to the entire surface of the positive electrode 10. It can also be formed.
 セパレータ20は、イオン透過性膜として機能するものであれば使用することができる。例えば、ポリエチレン多孔質フィルムやポリプロピレンの多孔質フィルムや不織布を用いることができる。
 電解質層22は、公知の電解液等で構成され、外装体24内でゲル化するゲル電解質であってもよい。
The separator 20 can be used as long as it functions as an ion permeable membrane. For example, a polyethylene porous film, a polypropylene porous film, or a nonwoven fabric can be used.
The electrolyte layer 22 may be a gel electrolyte that is made of a known electrolytic solution or the like and gels in the exterior body 24.
 負極1、正極10及びセパレータ20の平面形状は、それぞれ矩形を呈した相似関係を有していて、略同一の面積に形成されている。因みに、セパレータ20の面積が一番大きく、次ぎが負極1で、正極10が最も小さく形成されている。例えば、一例としては、セパレータ20の長辺の長さが56.8mm、短辺の長さが42.6mm、負極1のそれらが54.8mm、41.6mm、及び正極10のそれらが53.8mm、40.6mmとされている。 The planar shapes of the negative electrode 1, the positive electrode 10, and the separator 20 are similar to each other having a rectangular shape, and are formed in substantially the same area. Incidentally, the area of the separator 20 is the largest, the next is the negative electrode 1, and the positive electrode 10 is the smallest. For example, as an example, the length of the long side of the separator 20 is 56.8 mm, the length of the short side is 42.6 mm, those of the negative electrode 1 are 54.8 mm, 41.6 mm, and those of the positive electrode 10 are 53. 8 mm and 40.6 mm.
 セパレータ20を介在させた負極1及び正極10の間には、電解質層22が設けられている。電解質層22には、周知の電解質、電解液を用いることができる。例えば、LiPF、LiBF、LiClOのようなリチウム塩と、エチレンカーボネート(EC)及びジエチルカーボネート(DEC)の混合溶媒との電解液等を用いることができる。 An electrolyte layer 22 is provided between the negative electrode 1 and the positive electrode 10 with the separator 20 interposed therebetween. For the electrolyte layer 22, a well-known electrolyte or electrolytic solution can be used. For example, an electrolytic solution of a lithium salt such as LiPF 6 , LiBF 4 , or LiClO 4 and a mixed solvent of ethylene carbonate (EC) and diethyl carbonate (DEC) can be used.
 上述の負極1、正極10、セパレータ20及び電解質層22は、周知のリチウムイオン二次電池と同様に、これらの積層体(即ち、電極部P)がラミネートアルミフィルム等からなる外装体24内に密封させてリチウムイオン二次電池LBが製造される。電解質層22は、負極1と正極10との間以外に、電極部Pの周囲にも充填されている。 The negative electrode 1, the positive electrode 10, the separator 20, and the electrolyte layer 22 are formed in an exterior body 24 in which these laminates (that is, the electrode portion P) are made of a laminated aluminum film or the like, as in a known lithium ion secondary battery. The lithium ion secondary battery LB is manufactured by sealing. The electrolyte layer 22 is filled not only between the negative electrode 1 and the positive electrode 10 but also around the electrode part P.
 リチウムイオン二次電池LBを製造する際は、例えば、先ず、負極集電体2の上下面に負極活物質を含む負極材を5μmから100μm程度の厚みで塗布した後、負極材に含まれる溶媒を乾燥除去し、負極活物質層3を形成し、負極1とする。
 次に、例えば、正極集電体11の上下面に正極活物質を含む正極材を5μmから100μm程度の厚みで塗布した後、正極材に含まれる溶媒を乾燥除去し、正極活物質層12を形成し、正極10とする。
 負極1及び正極10は、生産性を高めるために、RtoR法によって製造することができ、その場合は大面積の各電極部からカッター等で上述したような所望の大きさに切断し、負極1及び正極10とする。その際に、例えば負極1の集電体端部1eに突起部が形成されることがある。
When manufacturing the lithium ion secondary battery LB, for example, first, a negative electrode material containing a negative electrode active material is applied to the upper and lower surfaces of the negative electrode current collector 2 with a thickness of about 5 μm to 100 μm, and then the solvent contained in the negative electrode material Is removed by drying to form the negative electrode active material layer 3, thereby forming the negative electrode 1.
Next, for example, after a positive electrode material containing a positive electrode active material is applied to the upper and lower surfaces of the positive electrode current collector 11 with a thickness of about 5 μm to 100 μm, the solvent contained in the positive electrode material is removed by drying, and the positive electrode active material layer 12 is removed. The positive electrode 10 is formed.
In order to increase productivity, the negative electrode 1 and the positive electrode 10 can be manufactured by the RtoR method. In this case, the negative electrode 1 is cut from each large-area electrode part to a desired size as described above with a cutter or the like. And the positive electrode 10. At that time, for example, a protrusion may be formed on the current collector end 1 e of the negative electrode 1.
 次に、電気絶縁性を有する塗液を、例えばダイ方式、グラビア方式等の公知の塗工方法で、正極10のうち、少なくとも、図1に示すように負極1の集電体端部1eに対向する部分に、塗布し、絶縁塗膜14を形成する工程を行う。
 その後、突起部6を絶縁塗膜14に対向させる形で、セパレータ20を介して負極1と正極10とを積層し、これらを外装体24で仮封止したラミネートセルを得る。セルを仮封止する際、端子4,13をそれぞれ外装体24の外部に突出させる。続いて、ラミネートセルの仮封止を部分的に解いて、電解質層22を形成した後で完全に封止する。以上の工程により、図1に示すリチウムイオン二次電池LBが得られる。
Next, an electrically insulating coating liquid is applied to at least the current collector end 1e of the negative electrode 1 as shown in FIG. 1 by using a known coating method such as a die method or a gravure method. The process of apply | coating to the opposing part and forming the insulating coating film 14 is performed.
Then, the negative electrode 1 and the positive electrode 10 are laminated | stacked through the separator 20 in the form which makes the protrusion part 6 oppose the insulating coating film 14, and the laminate cell which sealed these temporarily with the exterior body 24 is obtained. When temporarily sealing the cell, the terminals 4 and 13 are protruded from the exterior body 24, respectively. Subsequently, the temporary sealing of the laminate cell is partially unwound, and after the electrolyte layer 22 is formed, it is completely sealed. Through the above steps, the lithium ion secondary battery LB shown in FIG. 1 is obtained.
 上記構成からなる正極10、リチウムイオン二次電池LB及びその製造方法では、正極10に絶縁塗膜14が設けられているので、仮に負極1の集電体端部1eにバリ等の突起部が形成されていてセパレータ20が破損しても、負極1と正極10との短絡を効果的に防止することができる。また、電極間の絶縁塗膜14の密着性を向上させることで、リチウムイオン二次電池LBの性能を維持することができる。しかも、絶縁塗膜14は電気絶縁性を有する塗膜を塗布するだけで形成することができるので、従来の絶縁テープを張着するよりも簡単に行い、電極部P及びリチウムイオン二次電池LBの生産性を高めることができる。しかも、絶縁塗膜14の厚みは10μm程度とすることができるので、従来の絶縁テープ厚の35μmより薄く、電池性能の低下を抑制することができる。また、絶縁塗膜14が多孔質である場合は、正極10の正極活物質層12の接触面積の低下を抑制することができる。 In the positive electrode 10, the lithium ion secondary battery LB having the above-described configuration, and the manufacturing method thereof, since the insulating coating 14 is provided on the positive electrode 10, provisional portions such as burrs are temporarily formed on the current collector end 1 e of the negative electrode 1. Even if it is formed and the separator 20 is broken, the short circuit between the negative electrode 1 and the positive electrode 10 can be effectively prevented. Moreover, the performance of the lithium ion secondary battery LB can be maintained by improving the adhesion of the insulating coating film 14 between the electrodes. In addition, since the insulating coating film 14 can be formed simply by applying a coating film having electrical insulating properties, it is easier to apply than the conventional insulating tape, and the electrode portion P and the lithium ion secondary battery LB. Can increase productivity. And since the thickness of the insulating coating film 14 can be about 10 micrometers, it is thinner than 35 micrometers of the conventional insulation tape thickness, and can suppress the fall of battery performance. Moreover, when the insulating coating film 14 is porous, the fall of the contact area of the positive electrode active material layer 12 of the positive electrode 10 can be suppressed.
 また、上記構成からなる電極部P及びリチウムイオン二次電池LBでは、絶縁塗膜14(即ち、電気絶縁性を有する塗料)がアルミナやシリカ等の無機粒子を含んで構成されるので、機械的強度に優れた絶縁塗膜14を形成することができる。 In addition, in the electrode part P and the lithium ion secondary battery LB having the above-described configuration, the insulating coating film 14 (that is, the paint having electrical insulation) is configured to include inorganic particles such as alumina and silica. The insulating coating film 14 having excellent strength can be formed.
 また、上記構成からなる電極部P及びリチウムイオン二次電池LBでは、絶縁塗膜が多孔質であるので、正極活物質層12及び負極活物質層3の接触面積の低下を抑制することができる。 Moreover, in the electrode part P and the lithium ion secondary battery LB having the above-described configuration, since the insulating coating film is porous, it is possible to suppress a decrease in the contact area between the positive electrode active material layer 12 and the negative electrode active material layer 3. .
 以上、本発明によるその実施の形態について説明したが、本発明は上記の実施の形態に限定されるものではなく、その趣旨を逸脱しない範囲で適宜変更可能である。
 例えば、絶縁塗膜14を多孔質とし、絶縁塗膜14の小孔でセパレータ20のイオン透過機能を達成する場合は、セパレータ20を省略し、厚みを適切に調節した絶縁塗膜14のみを正極活物質層12上に設けてもよい。
The embodiment of the present invention has been described above. However, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be changed as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
For example, when the insulating coating film 14 is porous and the ion permeation function of the separator 20 is achieved by the small holes of the insulating coating film 14, the separator 20 is omitted and only the insulating coating film 14 whose thickness is appropriately adjusted is the positive electrode. It may be provided on the active material layer 12.
 また、上記実施形態では、図1に示すように、絶縁塗膜14が正極10のうち負極1の集電体端部1eに対向する正極集電体11の上下面に、正極活物質層12と連ねて設けられている例について説明したが、このような形態に限定されることはない。例えば、図2に示すように、絶縁塗膜14は正極集電体11とは反対側の正極活物質層12の表面上に設けられていてもよい。また、図3に示すように、絶縁塗膜14は、正極活物質層12の端部よりの表面から端部を覆うと共に、負極1の集電体端部1eに対向する正極集電体11の上下面に亘って設けられていてもよい。また、図4に示すように、負極1の集電体端部1eに突起部6が形成された場合に、絶縁塗膜14は突起部6を直接被覆するように設けられていてもよい。
 さらに、上述した実施形態の負極1と正極10とが逆であってもよい。つまり、正極10の集電体端部と、負極のうち正極の集電体端部に対向する部分とが絶縁塗膜14によって被覆されていてもよい。
Further, in the above embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the positive electrode active material layer 12 is formed on the upper and lower surfaces of the positive electrode current collector 11 with the insulating coating 14 facing the current collector end 1 e of the negative electrode 1 in the positive electrode 10. However, the present invention is not limited to such a form. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the insulating coating film 14 may be provided on the surface of the positive electrode active material layer 12 on the side opposite to the positive electrode current collector 11. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the insulating coating film 14 covers the end portion from the surface of the positive electrode active material layer 12 from the end portion, and faces the current collector end portion 1 e of the negative electrode 1. It may be provided over the upper and lower surfaces. As shown in FIG. 4, when the protrusion 6 is formed on the current collector end 1 e of the negative electrode 1, the insulating coating film 14 may be provided so as to directly cover the protrusion 6.
Furthermore, the negative electrode 1 and the positive electrode 10 of the above-described embodiment may be reversed. That is, the current collector end portion of the positive electrode 10 and the portion of the negative electrode facing the current collector end portion of the positive electrode may be covered with the insulating coating film 14.
 また、本発明の趣旨を逸脱しない範囲で、上記した実施の形態における構成要素を周知の構成要素に置き換えることは適宜可能である。 Moreover, it is possible to appropriately replace the constituent elements in the above-described embodiments with known constituent elements without departing from the gist of the present invention.
