4. The laminated external packaging material for a battery as recited in claim 1 , further comprising a thermoset resin layer having a thickness of 0.5 to 5 μm and adhered to a surface of the metallic foil on an opposite side of the base film.
5. The laminated external packaging material for a battery as recited in claim 1 , wherein the metallic foil comprises a hard aluminum foil hardened by a hardening treatment.
6. A laminate battery comprising:
a battery main body having a first end portion and a second end portion opposite to the first end portion; and
the laminated external packaging material as recited in any one of claims 1 , 2 and 3 - 5 being wrapped around the battery main body with the coated film layer in contact with the battery main body and thermally bonded thereto, the laminated external packaging material having excessive portions forming cylindrical portions in the first end portion and the second end portion; and
an end portion reinforcing plastic component having at least a portion inserted in each of the cylindrical portions and protruded from each of the first and second end portions of the battery main body and thermally bonded to the base film of the laminated external packaging material.
7. A laminated external packaging material for a battery, comprising:
a base film having a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface;
a metallic foil adhered to the first surface of the base film; and
a coated film layer formed on the second surface of the film such that exposed edge portions are formed in widthwise edge portions of the base film and positioned to face an end portion reinforcing plastic component of a laminate battery,
wherein the coated film layer comprises a thermal adhesive resin having a softening point of 160° C. or below and capable of thermally bonding to a surface film of a battery main body such that the laminated external packaging material is wrapped around the battery main body with the coated film layer in contact with the battery main body and thermally bonded thereto, and the base film comprises a thermoplastic resin capable of thermally bonding to the end portion reinforcing plastic component of the laminate battery.
8. The laminated external packaging material for a battery as recited in claim 7 , wherein the thermal adhesive resin of the coated film layer comprises an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer.
9. The laminated external packaging material for a battery as recited in claim 7 , further comprising an oriented film having a thickness of 8 to 40 μm and adhered to a surface of the metallic foil on an opposite side of the base film.
10. The laminated external packaging material for a battery as recited in claim 7 , further comprising a thermoset resin layer having a thickness of 0.5 to 5 μm and adhered to a surface of the metallic foil on an opposite side of the base film.
11. The laminated external packaging material for a battery as recited in claim 7 , wherein the metallic foil comprises a hard aluminum foil hardened by a hardening treatment.
12. A laminate battery comprising:
a battery main body having a first end portion and a second end portion opposite to the first end portion; and
the laminated external packaging material as recited in any one of claims 8 and 9 - 11 being wrapped around the battery main body with the coated film layer in contact with the battery main body and thermally bonded thereto, the laminated external packaging material having excessive portions forming cylindrical portions in the first end portion and the second end portion, and having a base film exposed edge portion on an inner surface of the cylindrical portions; and
an end portion reinforcing plastic component having at least a portion inserted in each of the cylindrical portions and protruded from each of the first and second end portions of the battery main body and thermally bonded to the base film exposed edge portion of the inner surface of the cylindrical portion.
13. The laminated external packaging material for a battery as recited in claim 1 , wherein the thermoplastic resin comprises at least one of polypropylene, polyethylene, polycarbonate, an acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene resin, and an adhesive polyamide.
