Description
본 발명은 케이스 내부에 수납된 전극을 케이스 외부로 연결하는 인출단자에 있어서, 그 회전 및 변형을 방지할 수 있도록 한 구성을 포함하는 밀폐전지에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a sealed battery including a configuration to prevent the rotation and deformation of the lead terminal for connecting the electrode stored in the case to the outside of the case.
밀폐전지는 재충전이 가능한 것으로 니켈수소(Ni-MH)전지와 리튬(Li)전지 및 리튬이온(Li-ion)전지가 주로 사용되고 있으며, 외관상으로는 원통형과 각형 전지로 구분되고 있다.Sealed batteries are rechargeable, and nickel-hydrogen (Ni-MH) batteries, lithium (Li) batteries, and lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries are mainly used. Apparently, they are classified into cylindrical and rectangular batteries.
도 3 및 도 4는 종래 공지된 각형 밀폐전지를 보여주고 있다.3 and 4 show a conventionally known rectangular sealed battery.
도면에서와 같이 각형 밀폐전지는 정극과 부극의 사이에 세퍼레이터를 개재하여 함께 권취 및 압착하여 전극군(2)을 형성하고, 그 전극군(2)을 캔(4)의 내부에 삽입하며, 그 캔(4)의 상측 개구에 캡 플레이트(6)를 용접 결합하되, 캡 플레이트(6)의 하부에 가스켓(8)을 배치하고 그 중심에 절연체(10)를 개재하여 절연된 리벳단자(12)를 체결하고 있다. 리벳단자(12)의 상측 리벳팅부와 절연체(10)의 사이에는 전기적인 연결성을 고려하여 전극 플레이트(14)를 더 설치할 수 있다.As shown in the drawing, the rectangular sealed battery is wound and crimped together through a separator between the positive electrode and the negative electrode to form an electrode group 2, and the electrode group 2 is inserted into the can 4. The cap plate 6 is welded to the upper opening of the can 4, but the gasket 8 is disposed below the cap plate 6, and the rivet terminal 12 insulated through the insulator 10 at the center thereof. Is fastening. An electrode plate 14 may be further installed between the upper riveting portion of the rivet terminal 12 and the insulator 10 in consideration of electrical connectivity.
상기 전극군(2) 중에서 부극은 도시 생략한 단자 탭 혹은 캔(4)과 직접 접속되고, 정극은 단자 탭(16)을 통하여 리벳단자(12)에 접속된 후 외부로 연결되어진다. 여기서 상기 리벳단자(12)는 캡 플레이트(6), 가스켓(8), 절연체(10) 및 전극 플레이트(14)를 물리적으로 체결함으로써 캡 어셈블리를 구성하고, 동시에 케이스 외부로 정극을 인출하는 단자 역할을 겸하게 된다.The negative electrode of the electrode group 2 is directly connected to a terminal tab or can 4 (not shown), and the positive electrode is connected to the rivet terminal 12 through the terminal tab 16 and then connected to the outside. Here, the rivet terminal 12 constitutes a cap assembly by physically coupling the cap plate 6, the gasket 8, the insulator 10, and the electrode plate 14, and at the same time serves as a terminal for drawing the positive electrode out of the case. Will serve as
이러한 종래의 밀폐전지에서 캔(4)과 캡 플레이트(6)로 구성되는 케이스는 전지의 경량화 및 소형화 추세에 맞추어 강도가 큰 금속 재질에서 알루미늄 혹은 알루미늄 합금을 사용하는 추세로 변화되고 있다.In the conventional sealed battery, the case consisting of the can 4 and the cap plate 6 is changing to a trend of using aluminum or an aluminum alloy in a high strength metal material in accordance with the trend of light weight and miniaturization of the battery.
그러나 알루미늄 혹은 알루미늄 합금을 케이스로 사용하는 밀폐전지의 경우에는 특히 리벳단자(12)를 밀봉 결합할 때, 연성 재질인 캡 플레이트의 특성상 리벳단자의 중심을 기준으로 그 주변 쪽으로 밀려져 쉽게 변형되는 문제점이 있으며, 또한 리벳단자(12)의 결합후 작업자의 실수로 인해 절연체(10) 및 리벳단자(12)가 회전하여 실링을 손상시키는 문제점이 있다.However, in the case of a sealed battery using aluminum or an aluminum alloy as a case, especially when sealing the rivet terminal 12, it is easily deformed by being pushed toward the periphery of the center of the rivet terminal due to the characteristics of the cap plate, which is a flexible material. In addition, there is a problem in that the insulator 10 and the rivet terminal 12 is rotated to damage the seal due to the operator's mistake after the coupling of the rivet terminal 12.
그 결과 종래의 밀폐전지에서는 밀폐성 불량으로 인해 전해액이 누출되는 심각한 문제를 초래하고 있으며, 또 리벳단자의 위치 변형으로 충·방전시 프로브 핀과의 접촉 불량을 초래하게 된다.As a result, in a conventional sealed battery, a serious problem of leakage of electrolyte due to poor sealing property is caused, and a defective contact with the probe pin during charging and discharging due to the positional deformation of the rivet terminal.
이러한 문제점을 감안하여 종래에는 캡 플레이트(6)에 단차부(6a)를 형성하여 그 자체의 변형 및 상기 리벳단자(12) 및 절연체(10)의 위치 변형을 최소화하고 있으나, 그 효과가 미미한 정도에 그치고 있는 실정이다.In view of such a problem, conventionally, the step portion 6a is formed in the cap plate 6 to minimize its own deformation and the positional deformation of the rivet terminal 12 and the insulator 10, but the effect is minimal. It is just a situation.
앞서 설명한 종래 기술의 문제점을 해결하기 위한 것으로서, 본 발명은 캡 플레이트를 관통하여 외부로 연결되는 인출단자를 이용하여 캡 어셈블리를 구성함에 있어서 캡 플레이트 및 인출단자의 변형을 방지하여, 전지의 밀폐성 및 신뢰성을 향상시킬 수 있도록 함에 그 목적을 두고 있다.In order to solve the problems of the prior art described above, the present invention is to prevent the deformation of the cap plate and the extraction terminal in the configuration of the cap assembly by using the withdrawal terminal connected to the outside through the cap plate, the sealing property of the battery and The aim is to improve reliability.

Inserts into the hole, through the insulator on the opposite side of the gasket, and inserts the electrode lead-out terminal into the hollow of the gasket sealingly coupled to propose a configured battery.
여기서 상기한 가스켓은 비원형으로 된 상부 플레이트와 중공 로드를 포함하여 구성되고, 상기 상부 플레이트의 테두리에서 연장된 상향 플랜지를 포함하여 안착부를 구성한다. 상기 안착부에는 전극 인출단자의 비원형 헤드부가 설치되므로 회전이 방지되고, 상기 인출단자는 상기 헤드부에서 연장되어 중공을 관통하는 로드부와 절연체의 하부에 형성되는 리벳팅부를 포함하여 구성된다.In this case, the gasket includes a non-circular top plate and a hollow rod, and includes a upward flange extending from an edge of the top plate to form a seating portion. Since the non-circular head portion of the electrode lead-out terminal is installed in the seating portion, rotation is prevented, and the lead-out terminal includes a rod portion extending from the head portion and a riveting portion formed under the insulator.
이러한 구성에 따라 본 발명의 밀폐전지는 가스켓이 캡 플레이트의 비원형 구멍에 삽입되고, 전극 인출단자의 헤드부가 상기 가스켓의 안착부에 설치됨에 의해 회전 변형이 방지되는 효과를 얻을 수 있으며, 또한 상기 캡 플레이트의 측면 연신을 방지할 수 있다. 따라서 본 발명에 의하면 전지의 밀폐성 및 신뢰성을 향상시키는 효과를 얻을 수 있다.According to this configuration, the sealed battery of the present invention can obtain the effect that the rotational deformation is prevented by the gasket is inserted into the non-circular hole of the cap plate, the head portion of the electrode lead-out terminal is installed in the seating portion of the gasket.

In this case, the cap plate 60 needs to form a step unlike the conventional configuration. Since the thickness can be increased, the strength can be reinforced. In addition, the cap plate 60 is provided with a step 64 on the rim to facilitate assembly with the can 4, and has a structure that suppresses the side stretching by the coupling of the electrode lead terminal 120.
캔(4)과 캡 플레이트(60)의 용접후, 상기 캡 플레이트(60)에 형성된 전해액 주입구(66)를 통하여 전해액을 주입하고, 그 주입구(66)를 플러그(68)로 막아 밀봉하므로 밀폐전지가 이루어진다.After welding the can 4 to the cap plate 60, the electrolyte is injected through the electrolyte injection hole 66 formed in the cap plate 60, and the injection hole 66 is sealed by a plug 68 to seal the sealed battery. Is done.
이와 같은 구성에서 본 발명의 밀폐전지는 단자 탭(16)과 전극 인출단자(120)의 연결을 보다 용이하게 실현하기 위해, 전극 인출단자(120)를 캡 플레이트(60)의 중심에서 일측으로 편심되게 설치한다. 또 이때 상기 전해액 주입구(66)를 캡 플레이트(60)의 중심에 위치되게 한다.In such a configuration, in the sealed battery of the present invention, in order to more easily realize the connection between the terminal tab 16 and the electrode lead terminal 120, the electrode lead terminal 120 is eccentric from the center of the cap plate 60 to one side. Install it properly. In this case, the electrolyte injection hole 66 is positioned at the center of the cap plate 60.
이상에서 설명한 구성 및 작용을 통하여 알 수 있는 바와 같이, 본 발명의 밀폐전지는 캡 플레이트에 비원형 구멍을 형성하고, 여기에 비원형 외주를 갖는 가스켓을 삽입하고, 전극 인출단자의 헤드부를 상기 가스켓의 안착부에 결합되게 함으로써, 회전 변형을 방지하는 효과를 얻을 수 있다.As can be seen through the configuration and operation described above, the sealed battery according to the present invention forms a non-circular hole in the cap plate, inserts a gasket having a non-circular outer circumference, and inserts the head portion of the electrode lead-out terminal into the gasket. By being coupled to the seating portion of, the effect of preventing rotational deformation can be obtained.
또한 본 발명에 의하면 종래 캡 플레이트의 단차부를 제거하고 강도를 보강하며 캔의 상측에 용접되게 함으로써, 캡 플레이트의 측면 연신을 최소화하는 효과를 얻을 수 있다.In addition, according to the present invention by removing the step portion of the conventional cap plate, reinforcing the strength and welded to the upper side of the can, it is possible to obtain the effect of minimizing the side stretching of the cap plate.
따라서 본 발명에 의하면 전지의 밀폐성 및 신뢰성을 향상시킬 수 있다.Therefore, according to this invention, the sealing property and reliability of a battery can be improved.
