    Abstract: A power storage device includes: an electrode group including first and second electrodes; a case accommodating the electrode group therein, the case having an opening; and a sealing body closing the opening of the case. The sealing body includes: an annular sealing plate having a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, the sealing plate having a first through-hole provided therein; a terminal plate having a third surface and a fourth surface opposite to the third surface, the third surface facing the first surface of the sealing plate; and an annular gasket disposed between the sealing plate and the terminal plate, the gasket having a second through-hole overlapping the first through-hole. The sealing plate includes a first recessed portion and an outer peripheral portion connected to a peripheral edge of the first recessed portion, the first recessed portion having a recess in the first surface of the sealing plate and having the first through-hole therein. The terminal plate includes a projecting portion projecting from the third surface toward the sealing plate and a flange portion extended from the projecting portion in a second direction intersecting with a first direction. The projecting portion has an end surface closing the first and second through-holes. The projecting portion of the terminal plate is accommodated in the first recessed portion. A peripheral edge of the outer peripheral portion of the sealing plate is joined with an opening end portion of the case. The first electrode and the second electrode are electrically connected to the terminal plate and the case, respectively.

    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a battery, includes: preparing a case having an opening at one end portion of the case and a bottom portion at another end portion of the case; preparing an electrode group including a first electrode, a second electrode, and a current collecting lead electrically connected to the first electrode; housing the electrode group in the case; and joining the current collecting lead to an inner surface of the case. The joining of the current collecting lead includes: pressing a pressing device having a tubular shape against the current collecting lead to cause the current collecting lead to contact the inner surface of the case; and welding the current collecting lead to the case while an inside of a tube of the pressing device is sucked by a suction device.

    Abstract: A cylindrical battery having improved strength against rotational torque includes: an electrode unit configured as a roll of a first electrode plate and a second electrode plate with a separator in between, the first electrode plate being an electrode plate to which one end of a first electrode tab and one end of a second electrode tab are connected, the second electrode plate having opposite polarity from the first electrode plate; a case housing the electrode unit; and a sealing member sealing an opening rim of the case. The first electrode tab and the second electrode tab are disposed to project out from the first electrode plate at opposite ends of a winding axis of the first electrode late. The first electrode tab is in contact with a bottom portion of the case by being welded thereto. The second electrode tab is welded at the opening rim side opposite the bottom portion of the case.

    Abstract: A power storage device includes a case, a power storage element, a lead, and a sealing member. The sealing member includes an insulating gasket that includes a base; and a conductive sealing plate. The sealing plate includes a displaceable part that includes a protrusion projecting toward the power storage element. The base is disposed between the sealing plate and the power storage element. The power storage device further includes a reinforcing member reinforcing the base. The base includes a first through hole, and the reinforcing member includes a second through hole. The protrusion is inserted in the first and second through holes. The protrusion is connected to the lead. The protrusion is disconnected from the lead when displaced in a direction away from the lead in response to an increase in internal pressure of the case.
