Claims
- 1. A method of fabricating a battery having spirally wound electrodes, said battery comprising an electrode group formed by spirally winding a positive electrode plate, a negative electrode plate, and a separator interposed between both electrodes, a battery case for housing said electrode group, a lead plate drawn from one electrode in said electrode group and connected in an electrically conducting relationship to an inner bottom surface of said battery case, and an insulating plate interposed between said lead plate and said electrode group, wherein at least a bottom surface of said insulating plate is formed from a heat weldable material; said method comprising the steps of:
- heat welding the lead plate to the bottom surface of the insulating plate;
- bending the lead plate, thereby holding the insulating plate on a bottom of the electrode group; and
- placing the electrode group into the battery case.
- 2. The method of fabricating a battery according to claim 1, wherein said insulating plate comprises an insulating resin plate and a hot melt adhesive layer coated on a lower surface of said insulating resin plate.
- 3. A method of fabricating a battery having spirally wound electrodes, said battery comprising an electrode group formed by spirally winding a positive electrode plate, a negative electrode plate, and a separator interposed between both electrodes, a battery case for housing the electrode group, a lead plate drawn from one electrode in the electrode group and connected in electrically conducting relationship to an inner bottom surface of the battery case, and an insulating plate interposed between the lead plate and the electrode group and at least one surface of which is formed from a heat weldable material, said method comprising the steps of:
- heat welding the lead plate to the one surface of the insulating plate;
- bending the lead plate, thereby holding the insulating plate on a bottom of the electrode group; and
- placing the electrode group into the battery case.
