Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An alkaline dry cell includes a bottomed cylindrical cell case, a positive electrode packed in the cell case and is made of a stack of n pieces of hollow cylindrical pellets, a negative electrode disposed in a hollow portion of the pellets, a separator interposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, and an alkaline electrolytic solution. A thickness of a body portion of the cell case is 0.08 to 0.16 mm. “n” is an integer of 3 or more. An average density d m of manganese dioxide in the n pellets is 2.80 to 3.00 g/cm 3 . A density of manganese dioxide of at least one pellet positioned in a middle portion in a height direction of the stack is 2.75 g/cm 3 or less.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An alkaline dry cell comprising: a bottomed cylindrical cell case; a positive electrode packed in the cell case, and is made of a stack of n pieces of hollow cylindrical pellets; a negative electrode disposed in a hollow portion of the pellets; a separator interposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode; and an alkaline electrolytic solution, wherein a thickness of a body portion of the cell case is 0.08 to 0.16 mm, the positive electrode includes manganese dioxide and a conductive agent, n is an integer of 3 or more, an average density d m of manganese dioxide of the n pieces of the pellets is 2.80 to 3.00 g/cm 3 , and a density d c of manganese dioxide of at least one pellet positioned in a middle portion in a height direction of the stack is 2.75 g/cm 3 or less. 2. The alkaline dry cell according to claim 1 , wherein n is an integer of 3 to 8.
