Abstract

A solid electrolyte battery is disclosed incorporating a wound electrode having a positive electrode with a collector having two sides on which positive-electrode active material layers are formed, a negative electrode with a collector having two sides on which negative-electrode active material layers are formed, and a solid electrolyte layer formed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, wherein a total film thickness A of the positive-electrode active material layers satisfies a range from 60 mm to 150 mm and a ratio A/B of the total film thickness A of the positive-electrode active material layers with respect to a total thickness B of the negative-electrode active material layers satisfies a range from 0.5 to 1.2.

Claims (12)

1. A gel electrolyte battery, comprising:

(a) an elongated positive electrode comprising an elongated positive-electrode collector having two sides on which positive-electrode active material layers are formed, the elongated positive electrode having lengthwise and widthwise directions and a lengthwise end;

(b) a positive-electrode lead in a substantially a rectangular shape with a long side and a short side and connected to the positive electrode such that the long side of the positive-electrode lead is substantially in parallel with the widthwise direction of the positive electrode;

(c) an elongated negative electrode comprising an elongated negative-electrode collector having two sides on which negative-electrode active materials layers are formed, the elongated negative electrode having lengthwise and widthwise directions disposed opposite to the positive electrode;

(d) a negative-electrode lead in a substantially a rectangular shape with a long side and a short side and connected to the negative electrode such that the long side of the negative-electrode lead is substantially in parallel with the widthwise direction of the negative electrode;

(e) a gel electrolyte layer formed on at least either surface of the positive electrode and the negative electrode, the gel electrolyte layer of the gel electrolyte including polymer material in an amount of about 5% to about 50% with respect to the weight of an electrolyte solution; and

(f) a fusible film,

wherein,

the elongated positive electrode and the elongated negative electrode are laminated such that the surfaces of each on which the electrolyte layer is formed are disposed opposite to each other and wound in the lengthwise direction so as to be accommodated in a case of the solid-electrolyte battery,

when the total thickness of a pair of the positive-electrode active material layers formed on the two sides of the collector for the positive electrode is a total film thickness A and the total thickness of a pair of the negative-electrode active material layers formed on the two sides of the collector for the negative electrode is a total thickness B, the total film thickness A of the positive-electrode active material layers is from 60 μ m to 150 μ m, and a ratio A/B of the total film thickness A of the positive-electrode active material layers with respect to the total thickness B of the negative-electrode active material layers is from 0.5 to 1.2;

the fusible film is on contact portion among the case, the positive-electrode lead and the negative-electrode lead, and

the wound electrode is encapsulated by a laminated film, and a lead of the positive electrode and a lead of the negative electrode connected to the wound electrode extend outside of the laminated film.
