Abstract:
In order to accurately protect current collectors included in an electric storage device, the electric storage device includes an electric storage element 3 arranged inside an electric storage device case BC; an electrode terminal 5 arranged outside the electric storage device case; a current collector 4 including a first posture part FP and a second posture part SP, the first posture part FP extending along a surface of the electric storage device case on which the electrode terminal 5 is arranged, the second posture part SP extending from an end portion of the first posture part toward the side opposite to the electrode terminal, the current collector fixed at the first posture part FP by means of a fixing member 8 penetrating through an opening formed in the electric storage device case, the current collector supporting the electric storage element 3 by the second posture part SP, thereby electrically connecting the electrode terminal 5 and the electric storage element 3; and a reinforcing member 13 arranged on the side of the first posture part FP where the electric storage element 3 is present, so as to extend longer toward the second posture part side than the fixing member 8, and sandwiched and fixed between the first posture part FP and the fixing member 8.
Abstract:
An electrolyte containment structure for an electrode jelly roll and electrolyte in a portable power source is described. The electrolyte containment structure comprises metal foil, such as metal foil sleeve, coupled to and partially surrounding a rigid frame. The rigid frame can protect the electrode jelly roll edges from crush events. To prevent shorts, the metal foil can be coated in plastic, which can insulate the metal foil from the electrode jelly roll. Further, the plastic can serve as a bonding and sealing agent. For instance, the metal foil can be coupled to the rigid frame using a thermal bonding method involving melting of the plastic. The rigid frame can provide a platform for connector pads and safety circuitry associated with the portable power source. The connector pads and safety circuitry can be assembled as modular components, which can simplify the assembly process The containment structure provides features associated with a pouch cell battery design, such as a light-weight metal foil pouch, but can be utilized in a portable computing device without being enclosed in a hard casing traditionally associated with pouch cell battery designs.
Abstract:
A battery and an electronic apparatus are disclosed by which it can be discriminated with a simple configuration whether or not the battery is of a thin type. The battery is configured such that a wall portion for discrimination of a battery characteristic which is swollen in a lengthwise direction and connects to a connector section is formed at a location of one of end faces positioned rather near to an end portion in a widthwise direction of a case of the battery.
Abstract:
An encapsulation structure of a thin type battery for encapsulating a battery is provided. The battery includes a battery body and a top sealing area having a thickness smaller than that of the battery body. The encapsulation structure of a thin type battery includes a frame body and an extending wall. The frame body includes a first sidewall, a second sidewall, a third sidewall, and a fourth sidewall. Two ends of the third sidewall are connected to the first sidewall and the second sidewall, respectively. The fourth sidewall is opposite the third sidewall. Two ends of the fourth sidewall are connected to the first sidewall and the second sidewall, respectively. The extending wall is connected to one side of the first sidewall and clamped at the third sidewall and the fourth sidewall. In addition, a thin type battery is also provided.

The can includes a cap plate disposed in an opening thereof, including a first terminal that extends toward the protective circuit board. The protective circuit board includes a base plate, a first connection terminal connected to the first terminal, a second connection terminal connected to the cap plate, and a first opening corresponding to the first and second connection terminals.
Abstract:
Conductors of a galvanic cell with an essentially flat housing are accessible from the outside by means of recesses, shaped as window-like openings which are essentially arranged in a plane and in parallel to the flat housing surface of the cell.
Abstract:
A secondary battery pack is provided. The secondary battery pack includes a battery cell having an electrode assembly of a cathode/separator/anode structure mounted in a battery case together with an electrolyte in a sealed state, an insulative mounting member having openings, through which electrode terminals of the battery cell are exposed to the outside, the insulative mounting member being constructed in a structure in which a safety element is mounted to the top of the insulative mounting member, the insulative mounting member being in direct contact with the top of the battery cell, and an insulative cap coupled to the top of the battery cell such that the insulative cap surrounds the insulative mounting member while the safety element is mounted to the insulative mounting member.
