Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Provided is an energy storage device which can sufficiently reduce a resistance of a current path. An energy storage device includes: an outer case having a lid plate on which an external terminal is mounted; a plate having a tab and housed in the outer case; a conductive shaft portion penetrating the lid plate and having one end thereof connected to the external terminal; and a conductive plate portion housed in the outer case, and having a first surface to which the other end of the conductive shaft portion is connected and a second surface to which the tab is connected, wherein a size of the conductive plate portion and a size of the tab are respectively set larger than a size of the external terminal in a planar direction of the lid plate.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
1 . An energy storage device comprising: an outer case having a lid plate on which an external terminal is mounted; a plate having a tab and housed in the outer case; a conductive shaft portion penetrating the lid plate and having one end thereof connected to the external terminal; and a conductive plate portion housed in the outer case, and having a first surface to which the other end of the conductive shaft portion is connected and a second surface to which the tab is connected, wherein a size of the conductive plate portion and a size of the tab are respectively set larger than a size of the external terminal in a planar direction of the lid plate. 2 . The energy storage device according to claim 1 , wherein the second surface of the conductive plate portion is formed flat, and the tab is connected to at least a portion of the conductive plate portion which is disposed opposite to the conductive shaft portion. 3 . The energy storage device according to claim 1 , wherein as viewed in cross section, one end and the other end of the conductive plate portion protrude from one side end and the other side end of the external terminal respectively in the planar direction of the lid plate, and the tab is connected to the conductive plate portion ranging from a portion of the conductive plate portion protruding from one side end of the external terminal to a portion of the conductive plate portion protruding from the other side end of the external terminal. 4 . The energy storage device according to claim 1 , wherein the conductive plate portion and the conductive shaft portion are integrally formed with each other. 5 . The energy storage device according to claim 1 , wherein a through hole is formed in the external terminal, and one end of the conductive shaft portion is inserted into the through hole and is swaged to the external terminal. 6 . An energy storage device comprising: an outer case having a lid plate on which an external terminal is mounted; a plate having a tab and housed in the outer case; a conductive shaft portion penetrating the lid plate and having one end thereof connected to the external terminal; and a conductive plate portion housed in the outer case, and having a first surface to which the other end of the conductive shaft portion is connected and a second surface to which the tab is connected, wherein a size of the conductive plate portion is set larger than a size of the external terminal in a planar direction of the lid plate, and the tab is connected to at least a portion of the conductive plate portion which is disposed opposite to the conductive shaft portion.
