Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A cylindrical secondary battery comprises an external can that has a cylindrical tube part and an electrode body that is provided inside the tube part. The electrode body is obtained by winding a positive electrode plate and a negative electrode plate with a separator therebetween. In the external can, the ratio of the average value of the outer diameter of the middle of the tube part in the axial direction of the external can to the average value of the outer diameter of the bottom-side end of the tube part is 100.10-100.50%, and the standard deviation of the outer diameter of the middle of the tube part is 0.020-0.050 mm.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A cylindrical secondary battery, comprising: an exterior housing can having a cylindrical barrel part and one end sealed with a bottom plate; and an electrode assembly disposed inside the barrel part, wherein a positive electrode plate and a negative electrode plate are wound via a separator in the electrode assembly, a proportion of an average value of outer diameters at a center of the barrel part being a center in an axial direction of the exterior housing can relative to an average value of outer diameters on a bottom end of the barrel part is greater than or equal to 100.10% and less than or equal to 100.50% in the exterior housing can, and a standard deviation of the outer diameters at the center of the barrel part is greater than or equal to 0.020 mm and less than or equal to 0.050 mm. 2 . The cylindrical secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the proportion of the average value of the outer diameters at the center of the barrel part relative to the average value of the outer diameters on the bottom end of the barrel part is greater than or equal to 100.20% and less than or equal to 100.50% in the exterior housing can. 3 . The cylindrical secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the negative electrode plate has a band-shaped core and a mixture layer formed on the core, the mixture layer is composed of including an active material containing graphite and a Si material, and a proportion of the graphite in the active material is greater than or equal to 50 mass % and less than or equal to 94 mass %, a proportion of the Si material in the active material is greater than or equal to 6 mass % and less than or equal to 50 mass %, a density of the mixture layer is greater than or equal to 1.3 g/cc and less than or equal to 1.75 g/cc, a material of the exterior housing can is Fe, and a thickness of the exterior housing can is greater than or equal to 0.18 mm and less than or equal to 0.33 mm.
