Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A lithium-ion rechargeable battery includes a negative electrode plate including a negative electrode substrate and a negative electrode mixture layer applied to the substrate, a positive electrode plate including a positive electrode substrate and a positive electrode mixture layer applied to the substrate, a separator arranged between the negative electrode plate and the positive electrode plate, and a non-aqueous electrolyte. The negative electrode substrate includes a negative electrode connection portion that projects from the negative electrode mixture layer in a first width direction. The positive electrode substrate includes a positive electrode connection portion that projects from the positive electrode mixture layer in a second width direction. The separator has a gas permeability that is greater at a portion facing an end of the positive electrode mixture layer in the second width direction than a portion facing an end of the positive electrode mixture layer in the first width direction.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A lithium-ion rechargeable battery, comprising: a negative electrode plate including a negative electrode substrate and a negative electrode mixture layer applied to a surface of the negative electrode substrate; a positive electrode plate including a positive electrode substrate and a positive electrode mixture layer applied to a surface of the positive electrode substrate; a separator arranged between the negative electrode plate and the positive electrode plate; and a non-aqueous electrolyte, wherein the negative electrode substrate includes a negative electrode connection portion that projects from the negative electrode mixture layer in a first width direction and is electrically connected to a negative electrode external terminal, the positive electrode substrate includes a positive electrode connection portion that projects from the positive electrode mixture layer in a second width direction opposite to the first width direction and is electrically connected to a positive electrode external terminal, and the separator has a gas permeability that is greater at a portion facing an end of the positive electrode mixture layer in the second width direction than a portion facing an end of the positive electrode mixture layer in the first width direction. 2 . The lithium-ion rechargeable battery according to claim 1 , wherein the gas permeability of the separator increases in the second width direction. 3 . The lithium-ion rechargeable battery according to claim 2 , wherein the gas permeability of the separator at the end in the second width direction is 105% or greater with respect to the gas permeability at the end in the first width direction.
